1940plymouth Posted October 28, 2008 Report Posted October 28, 2008 Well, it finally happened today here in the Catskills, we have gotten our first snow of the season, the town has put down plenty of SALT, so now the '40 will have to stay put in the garage until we get some rain and warmer weather to clean off the roads We aren't suppose to get the heavy snow that they are calling for in Syracuse or the Plattsburgh area, but they are calling for 3-7 inches of snow down here.

Plymouthy Adams Posted October 28, 2008 Report Posted October 28, 2008 got to admit..I ask for it..... Quote
oldmopar Posted October 28, 2008 Report Posted October 28, 2008 Even had some snow in NJ not enough to worry about but too soon for the cold white stuff here Quote
Mr. Belvedere Posted October 28, 2008 Report Posted October 28, 2008 Send some our way! Nothin but this blazing fireball and cloudless skies and hot dry dusty desert winds. We can't seem to turn the corner on summer here in Socal, where it is still in the freakin 90's with 0% humidity!!! Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted October 28, 2008 Report Posted October 28, 2008 at least you got the zero humidity somewhat in your favor..try freaking 90's with 90% humidity..they don't say humbug in the south without good reason..HUMidity-BUGs Quote
PatS.... Posted October 28, 2008 Report Posted October 28, 2008 Bright sun and mid 60's , be nice tomorrow too, then mid 40's for Thursday and warm again for the weekend. No sign of snow yet this season in my area...it's coming, though ;( Mountains are getting dumped on, some passes are closed, but we be smilin' here. Quote
knighthawk Posted October 28, 2008 Report Posted October 28, 2008 24 degrees last night ! had lite frost the night before, NO humidity ! nice and warm again for the week or so , hope it killed some of these SPIDERS ! Quote
dezeldoc Posted October 28, 2008 Report Posted October 28, 2008 I just don't know what to say, I'm outside working on a 57 Cameo right now in shorts and a t-shirt!! I really hate this BAD weather. Quote
Dennis Hemingway Posted October 28, 2008 Report Posted October 28, 2008 I go with what dezeldoc said, "I really hate this BAD weather.":rolleyes: I've been out helping my neighbor work on his Jeep today and it's still shorts and t-shirt weather. If you are going to send any of that white stuff this way, make sure that it stays on Mr. Belvedere's side of the mountain. Dennis But it's a Dry Heat! Quote
Don Coatney Posted October 28, 2008 Report Posted October 28, 2008 One thing I have enjoyed forever in my life is the smell of the first time the furnace fires off for the winter. The smell makes my stomach grumble for a hot bowl of chili. I can almost count the number of times I have missed this event in my life and this year is one of them. Lisa had to fire off the furnace a week or so ago and I am (unfortunately) on the road in in search of fortune and fame. Quote
1947PLEVY Posted October 28, 2008 Report Posted October 28, 2008 We had the big bowls of chili tonight, and tomorrow it will be the homemade chicken and dumplin's. John 47 Plevy Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted October 28, 2008 Report Posted October 28, 2008 mums is fixin' chili right now...gonna be good for sure... Don...good thing you did not say fortune and dame... Quote
1940plymouth Posted October 28, 2008 Author Report Posted October 28, 2008 Still snowing here, along with being very windy, about three inches so far. School was let out early so my wife came home and put a beef potroast in the oven along with with potatoes and carrots, then she made home made gravy. YUM YUM YUMMY Don, we haven't turned the furnace on for heat as of yet, don't want to use the fuel oil, but we have had the woodstove going for over a week now Quote
Don Coatney Posted October 28, 2008 Report Posted October 28, 2008 mums is fixin' chili right now...gonna be good for sure...Don...good thing you did not say fortune and dame... dame-lust ....... same same? I still have a pebble in my shoe............ Quote
Oldguy48 Posted October 28, 2008 Report Posted October 28, 2008 Our area was spared, but just to our north and northeast, the snow was heavy. I'm not ready for this cold weather #$%&*. I wish Mr. Belvedere could ship some of the weather conditions he's grumbling about to N.E. Pennsylvania !!! I'm a winter-hater, and have been as long as I can remember. If it wasn't for family and friends, I'd be outta here, and headed for warmer climates. Quote
RobertKB Posted October 29, 2008 Report Posted October 29, 2008 We had our first snow about three weeks ago but since then we have moved back into our "Indian Summer" with lots of sunshine and warm temperatures. In fact today we were 25C (77F) which made us the hot spot in Canada. Supposed to be the same tomorrow. I actually got my shorts out and wore them again today! Took the '48 Dodge D25 Club Coupe out for about two hours today just cruising slowly down some back country roads. Quote
greg g Posted October 29, 2008 Report Posted October 29, 2008 Well we have about 3 inches of wet heavy, It's melting as I can hear the run off going down the downspout. With all the leaves on it could be a real mess if it keeps up. Quote
Norm's Coupe Posted October 29, 2008 Report Posted October 29, 2008 We only had a trace in the Milwaukee area. They said it came yesterday afternoon. However, it must have came and left in a flash because I didn't see any. But........Fall, winter and spring wouldn't be the same without a little of the white stuff. Tim and Don. Why does it have to be cold to eat chile? I like a good bowl any time of the year, regardless of the temperature. Many times during the summer months when it's in the 90's with high humidity I'll have chile when the wife goes for her club meetings once a month. She won't fix it then because she doesn't like it in the summer, makes her too hot she says. So.........I just buy a jar of the Hormel ready made chile for myself. But guess I'm a little different. If I eat ice cream in the summer, I then need a hot cup of coffee to wash it down. Quote
Don Coatney Posted October 29, 2008 Report Posted October 29, 2008 .........I just buy a jar of the Hormel ready made chile for myself.[/ QUOTE] Norm; I am talking real home made chili. Not that Hormel crap. If that was the only thing available I would not like chili. Hamburger, sausage, tomato juice, kidney beans, whole stewed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, hot peppers, hot sauce, some like onions but I dont, a bit of chili seasoning, and a bit of what ever looks good from the spice shelf. Add crackers and shreaded cheese to the bowl and chow down. I would rather eat Pablem than that Hormel crap. Quote
Fireball Posted October 29, 2008 Report Posted October 29, 2008 Already below zero here, first snow is expected on Friday. I truly hope SoCal area stays warm for couple more weeks, we are heading there for vacation in less than two weeks time. I'm thrilled! Quote
