Boating Weather?
 

Just happened to look at the local forecast, since we are expecting a
bit of snow today, and saw this:

"snow with a chance of thunderstorms this afternoon"

Snow during thunderstorms? Snow before thunderstorms?

Snow during thunderstorms is something I don't recall experiencing.

We're predicted for 12 to 16" of snow.

Someone on the Sound, someone is boating. Betcha.

Rarely happens, but usually indicates more snow within a couple of
weeks....

We're predicted as much as 3" and we 20 miles north of the SC line and
within sight of the beach. Lake boaters in central NC are looking at
8" of wet snow....







We've had enough snow already to cover the grass. Not sticking at the
moment to the pavement. Prediction is for four to eight inches in the DC
area by day's end. If that happens, it'll be enough, probably, for
governmental shutdowns tomorrow. Schools are already closed because of
the holiday break.

Hardly a late fall/winter goes by here without reading about some
hapless duck/goose hunter out on Chesapeake Bay in a little skiff,
hunting his prey, falling in the water, and dying fast because of
hypothermia. That's a big price to pay for a duck dinner.

Some people actually enjoy recreation.

We got out yesterday. It was mid 70s.

=========

40's today, blowing like stink.
Got a new smoker for Christmas and planning on doing up some chicken and
veggies. It'll have to wait till the wind drops about 20 knots!

No snow to speak of northwest of DC yet.

Got two holiday calls yesterday from friends, one from an old union
buddy who was down your way, sort of, on or near Sanibel Island, and
rubbing it in about the weather, and another from a classmate of my
wife's, a Kenyan who called from Nairobi, where it was warm and rainy, a
bit warmer than where you are.

We're expecting four to eight inches of snow through today.

As of now, in spite of all the white stuff falling... it is melting as
quickly as it is hitting the ground... except for wood decks and the
like...

Cold and windy. Probably low 50's in Santa Monica. Driving back from the
other daughter in Long Beach, was raining hard. Really hard. Was surprised
that I saw no accidents on the way back. Daughters Mother in law drove down
from Sacramento area yesterday, and said was foggy in the valley at times.
Try to take the kayak for stripers or trout this week.

Spoofer alert. I'm a fat, nasty, mean spirited obnoxious schitt so I
have no friends.

Speaking of Kenya, did you catch the excellent NY Times piece on how
personal solar panels and cell phones are changing lives in that
country?

Woudn't you know that the technology is all coming from China?

Solar panels on huts...gotta love it. I loved the bit about improved
grades for the kids because of LED lighting.

The manufacture of solar panels is a very dirty business, of course it
moved off shore rather than be hounded by environmentalists and the
various environmental agencies.

Get a current National Geographic and do a little reading.
