Re: Weather!
Oh, I explained that on the video page but I'll write it here. It was Pat playing Civilization V on his computer. He played for a long time! I used that room to shoot from so the camera wouldn't bother me while I slept. It's not very loud but I am sensitive to things like that.Beyond wrote:QUESTION: what's the blue screen thingie on the right side?? maybe you could include it more in the next video?
Just call me "geck" because "zilla" is like a last name.

Re: Weather!
It's snowing here, too. We haven't got a lot of it, but more is on the way next week, and temperatures are going to be dropping.
No spring is on its way here, that's for sure!

Re: Weather!
We got a splash of rain overnight; enough to get the ground wet! The forecast is for rain and snow; but really it looks like it is about over for the next week or so. The inclement weather looks like it is up North of us and headed toward the East! Looks like the here, the drought continues and Eastern states are going to get more snow!

Re: Weather!
Endless grey sky, filled with fog making eyes unable to see neighbours and gardens, a limitation to adore what universe has given birth.
Dull days come and go, repeating cold wind and abandoned city, no laughter and no fun.
Cocooned in cosy homes, a shelter that has fire and light. Hot tea steaming in big cups with little green patterns.
A book that takes me to a world of numbers and diagramms, presenting the secrets of a bang no one has ever witnessed.
Glimpses from my small window, snowflakes whirl down, some fast - others waltz, hiding beneath them plain earth, white frost everywhere.
No one gives up believing a star will shine again on us, kissing rays on me. I will be effulgent.

Re: Weather!
After a couple of weeks of early spring weather, temperatures in the high 50s and low 60s, occasional thunder showers, high humidity, and early morning fog, we get plunged back into winter. Forecasters are predicting 1 to 4 inches of snow for tomorrow.

Re: Weather!
Shirt-sleeve weather yesterday. At 36 we've already hit the high for today. Big, fat, wet flakes of snow falling heavily. 2 to 5 inches expected. The good news is, we missed most of the wintry mix, with a change over straight from rain to snow. The ground temperature is so warm, not much will stick, and highs near 50 tomorrow will probably get rid of the rest. Oklahoma weather is so fickle.

Re: Weather!
I was wrong about not sticking. It's coming down so heavily, we are getting quite an accumulation. It may exceed expectations.

Re: Weather!
Nah, we're having typical Oklahoma weather (can't make up its mind). We're already above freezing, today, with bright sunshine, on our way to a high in the low 50s. The streets are all clear and dry, and the snow is already melting away. Officially, we had just over 3 inches in OKC, but when I got out for a while yesterday afternoon, there was over 4 inches on my car and it was still coming down. It probably wasn't much fun going to work this morning (not that I had to worry) with the refreeze over night, but it will all be gone today.

Re: Weather!
It's been a while since it snowed out here! Last week we had a little rain; but it was unmeasurable! It was supposed to snow then; but all we got was a flake of two! Kind of looks like the drought isn't broken yet!

Re: Weather!
The weather radar shows that we may get some snow! Just how much; I don't know! I do not like the cold weather that goes along with snow, but we need the moisture! The predictions range from 3 to 10 inches!

Re: Weather!
Must be spreading up your way. We started with snow this morning and then switched over to rain. We're supposed to have rain, freezing rain, and snow through tonight and tomorrow. Significantly colder than it has been, but the moisture is welcome.

Re: Weather!
Snow is coming our way, and lots of it!Forecasters predict that Kansas City could see as much as 10 inches of snow, which we haven't seen for who knows how long! Areas northwest of here (more specifically Manhattan, KS) may get up to 14 inches of snow! There may also be sleet and freezing rain as well, but it should stay farther down south as long as the low pressure system doesn't come too far north too soon. There may also be lightning and thunder with this storm as well, which I haven't seen for several years at all! Radar is currently showing the storm in Wichita and just west of Topeka. It should arrive at around 6:00 CDT tommorow morning. Can't wait! Also, that explosion at the Country Club Plaza last evening was pretty devastating. I've never eaten at JJ's before, so I kinda missed out. Sympathy to all those who went to the hospital and the one who died.orin stepanek wrote:The weather radar shows that we may get some snow!

So far; all we got was a dusting! A lot must be expected though; since all the schools around are taking a snow day or two!
