No Joke.....Snow coming

[Michigan_Mike]

After 50+ years, I'm kind of used to it.
I don't expect warm weather until July.
I like the picture you use. Looks like you're around Harbor Beach. (My wife is from Forestville.)

JayC,

Since you've already cut your grass you better 'tarp it over' so it doesn't get frostbite tonight.

Wow. You hit the nail on the head. Good guess! I spent quite a while editing that photo to get that star in just the right spot. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

JayC; Oh Boy, I just got the alert too. Looks like the toothebar maybe coming back off. Still don't know of a better state to live in though. Last week I was upnorth moving dirt and brush in 75 degrees, and very dry. Well, we do live on a peninsula ya know. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif Keep the faith, nice weather will be here, then we'll all be whining when the temps are over 85. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I was thinking you were around Grindstone City. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Do you think Ronj /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif had anything to do with this snow? I thought I heard a snicker down Texas way.

Don; Knowing Ron, I'll just about gaurantee it! /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gifI think the big shindig is tomorow down there. Some guys get all the good weather! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

The news this evening showed a video of the same storm system in another state. They were getting tornadoes and all that junk. I don't know about you, but complain as I might, I will take a blizzard over tornadoes any day! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Grindstone City is a nice little town. Haven't been there in years.

 

[johnday]

JayC; Agree completely about the blizzard. But, I'm torn between earthquakes and tornadoes. Never been in a big quake, don't think I'd care much for a big one. But I have been around tornadoes, there are NOT fun. But, I'm glad we don't have to put up with quakes, mudslides, and all the rest of the neat things they get in the paradise states. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif Think I'll just stay in Michigan for awhile yet. Read that, the rest of my life except for a visit or two. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Woke up this morning with a slight dusting left on the grass and several inches up on the roof valleys. It's all gone now. I am south of Green Bay, WI.
