Guest guest Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 So I wonder why we're having spring-like weather here in North Carolina. My husband said he even saw a mosquito on his hand yesterday. We'll probably pay for it later. Sue On Friday, January 7, 2005, at 07:32 PM, wrote: > > The weather there sounds nasty, Judi!

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 I don't know, Sue! You've probably just jinxed yourself by saying that. Overall, we had a very pleasant spring and summer and relatively warm fall and winter, so I can't complain. Now I have jinxed myself. I'll tell you where to go!

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 I hear ya, Judi!! Here in central Ohio we has an ice storm Thursday before Christmas. It started right about Wednesday evening as rain then it turned to this huge flaked snow storm. You could actually feel the flakes hit you on the head!! In about 2 hours there was about 8 inches on the ground. Now, I am originally from Cleveland, so that 8 inches is no big deal to me. Well, it melted with more rain. The temps yo-yo'd by 10 degrees or so for most of the day. By Wednesday night it was sleeting. By Thursday morning, most of the snow had melted and their was ice EVERYWHERE!!! Power lines down trees split right in half!!. My dad's yard and my sister's yard looked like war zones!! My dad had one tree that broke and landed on the boat!! My sister-in-law's brother had a tree in his bathroom!! Well, my power was out until Christmas day and even then it flickered on and off for a week. My sister lost power Thursday around 1am and it didn't come back up until the following Thursday. Fortunately they have an RV so that gave them a generator to run the sump pump and a few minor items to keep pipes from freezing. Because of all the rain, the basements were flooding. My dad had 8 inches of water in his basement. But, I give the power company teams credit, they worked their butt's off getting power restored and would like to officialy thank them as well as the one's who came from out of state. They kicked ass!!! Christmas Eve morning, I headed to my dad's house and I had to stop every few minutes to take pictures. For all the devistation from the ice, it sure was beautiful seeing the sun shine on the ice. I went to this wetland nature reserve not far from me and took pictures. I will have to see if I can figure out how to post them. Anyway, it amazed me how much snow the west side of Columbus got compared to the east side. Now we have had so much rain that it's flooding everywhere. But, it could be worse. I feel for the tsunami victims. I have a friend from Thailand and she just recently heard from her parents and siblings. The still live over there and they are all ok. For those of you who haven't seen the movie " Day after Tomorrow " , don't!! If you see it now, with all this weird weather, you just might believe it!! We rented it Christmas weekend and watched it on my laptop since the power was out!! Geeze, I got colder watching it!!!

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 LOL, . Now that we're both jinxed, we might as well enjoy this good weather while we still have it.
