Weather in your neck of the woods?

We were supposed to play 9 with another couple this afternoon at an executive course, however, because of the downpour the course is closed. 

[Kenny B 25,262]

22º feels like 14º; snowed all night, very fine powder; still snowing; drifts 2-3 feet; low tonight 13º and supposed to snow through Monday night.  

No golf for at least 2 weeks.

This one? We were sitting in the Covid Shot line when this went thru.

WOW brings back memories in that area. A friend of mine who was a carny owned a trailer in Winter Haven. So in the summer when he was out on the road and I was down playing the Mini Tours I stayed in his trailer free of charge. Good base of operations for me since we played mostly in the Orlando, Kissimmee and Tampa areas. Now believe it of not that place was quiet in the summer but fall and winter it was party central. I stayed down one year to the fall and took a job at a Chevy Caddy dealer in Tampa. Did not have any tools with me per say but detailed cars and did general building maintenance. Was supposed to go home Thanksgiving and get my tools and return but never went back. I called the manager and told him I was staying in Greenville NC. Went back the following spring to play golf again---- Man those were the days.

LOL that was how I got one of my nicknames "Trailer Park"

14th hour no power. Every saw in town is sold as well as generators. Long line at all food places and gas stations. if there is power. Hanging around mid 30s with some light rain. My trees took major damage as did most people. 

Power company came and cleared lines in my area but no power as of yet. Maybe tomorrow. Ice still on trees but melting off. I took my food to a buddies and living out of cupboard and propane stove along with 1000s of others Id assume.  

If no power tomorrow I might go stay elsewhere. 

This ice storm was no joke for us. Be safe as I hear its hitting other parts of country soon.

Hope you get power back soon, but at least it's above freezing.  It was below freezing in Corvallis a few nights last week.  I had to scrape my windshield a couple of mornings.

Hope you get power soon, it's a pain to deal with that.  We had light rain all day yesterday and temps stayed at about 29 so it was creating a lot of icicles.  I kept watching the trees but for some fantastic reason it didn't build up on the branches too much.

26 this morning and its an ice skating rink on everything on the property, even the stone driveway is ice covered and slick.  The dog didn't like trying to hop back up the icy deck steps, after the first one she turned around looking at me for a boost.

We're under a storm warning from 1am tomorrow until 1pm Tuesday. They are saying somewhere between 4" and 7" of snow. So happy I have tomorrow off.

I work from home right now but this is the roughest part of the year. Can only putt so much. Another 4-6 weeks....

Power back on late last night. Drove around my home course and the place is mutilated with a couple houses taking big hits from big trees. 

On to clean up. 

[Kenny B 25,262]

Snowing again.  27º  Forecast is snow all night long, then freezing rain in the morning.

So far, we've had about a foot of snow with 3 foot drifts.  The bad news is I have a very long concrete driveway leading to a 3-car garage.  The good news is that I started shoveling it yesterday, and my neighbor came over with his snowblower.  Need to do it again tomorrow!!

[Tom the Golf Nut 3,519]

Rain again today. Ice storm watch for tomorrow.  Can't wait for March to get here.

Wet and in the 40s....meanwhile, the rest of Oregon is getting the bad stuff.

You are just far enough south.

[PMookie 13,135]

Sleet has started... Ugh. Praying we don’t lose power this week!!!!

Yep...and being in a valley tends to keep us sheltered, as well.  Not always, but often.

WOW and you folks are like us not used to it--- Now we have gotten an abundance of rain to already soaked ground. My back yard around the shop and hitting mat is flooded like when we had hurricanes. It has rained steady all day yesterday and I think we are going to get the storm that you guys are getting now in the form of rain for us around Tuesday.

[Shapotomous 2,156]

I think rain is in the forecast today rather than the ice if we are lucky.  The ice line is just north of us so it could change by the time it gets here late afternoon.

February is a cruel month. Hopefully this gets all the winter out. Hoping for an early Spring!

It’s just hard to stay fresh or do SuperSpeed with 10+ inches of snow in the yard and overnight lows in the single digits or teens.

Yup. I'm so over winter, yet we have the possibility of another 18 inches this week.

Doesn't mother nature realize I'm jonesing to play a bunch of golf?

Ouch. We’re not supposed to get more snow from tonight’s storm... which you think would be a good thing. Instead were supposed to get a half inch of ice from freezing rain.
