    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

This will be interesting.......

Well, 14 mi. south of I-40 & we've been lucky so far. Less than 2" snow Sat., no freezing rain or sleet. Opened door and looked out this morn. and water dripping everywhere, off the eves, off the autos, off trees. Can see a little ice on trees, Nothing like what the Nashville news is showing. I don't have an outside thermometer but got to be way warmer than Nashville's 32 degrees... News says getting worse all day, Hope they are wrong.
 
20 miles South of me they are having significant icing on trees and power lines. Hope it stays to the South.

In the few days before this snow, our western skies (AZ) were so full of "white lines", you could hardly see any blue at all. This lasted for about 4 days before the ice storm development was broadcast. Those lines blew over to the east... Then this! Draw your own conclusions... Just thought you should know...
 
Due to the extreme cold weather forecasted for the next few days, Wal-Mart is requesting that customers wear 2 pairs of pajama pants when shopping at their stores!:p

...............and if it turns really bad they will suggest that you also put on shirts to go with your jammies. LOL
 
61 and sunny in Phoenix, but that's the reward for surviving the brutal summers.
The photos from around the country looking like a hellscape. Hope all you who are affected stay safe.
 
88 degrees here in the Everglades, back down to 37 tomorrow night. As mentioned earlier, I've been through some pretty heavy snow and ice storms which is why I am where I am.

Hopefully everyone comes out safe, the biggest risk comes from driving, then falling branches and even whole trees not to mention live power lines on the ground. Other than that it probably sucks pretty bad being without heat and electricity if you're always used to having it.

Just look closely for alternating red streaks, even if they are faint.

White lines with a bit of red is perfect for Peppermint candy canes! !

Final total of snow/sleet here 7.25", now dealing with below 0 wind chills as actual air temp is in the single digits. So far, so good here at home, warm, dry, and no frozen pipes. A little preparation goes a long way in events like this. Weather people are saying another storm is building for next week but further South.
 
Everything is normal here in New Buffalo Michigan.

We got about 12" of snow here in northeast Ohio.
Work text me yesterday "The shop is closed Monday" that was nice.
It was fun watching the neighborhood kids playing in the snow! A bunch of goof-balls is what they are!
The roads are passable today. The bar is open, life is good...
 
We got lucky, less than 2" of snow and a lot less ice on our trees than I'm see'in all over our local news. Went to town yesterday, appx. 15 mi. north, and the farther we drove the more ice and limbs down we saw. Hard to imagine how much worse they had it than us out here just 15 mi. away. Predictions of single digits tonight and not getting up to 32 degrees till next Sun. terrible aggravating... Good luck to those less fortunate than us.
