3/4 weather thread

Ok, its almost March.............time to warm up and open up the golf courses. Seriously i think the courses around here have been open by March 15-20th the past 5 years. Don't want an April start.

I'll take moisture in any form. I don't want another summer of watching radars hoping for any chance of rain.

As much as it sucked to be wrong with this one, it is another 0.70" of liquid, which is good.

We could use another dozen or two like it, but still good.

as long as it doesn't melt until the ground is thawed!

I also look for positives when I screw up at my job.

Not sure but it didn't really seem like the ground froze much to begin with.

I'm in WI, sorry. Definitely frozen up here, the run-off was so bad the couple rain-following-snow fun times that we had flash flood warnings.

More than an inch.

Much more.

That is what she said when it arrived.

As much as I hate snow, we need a lot of moisture to replenish the water tables. The past couple of years have been brutal.

KCCI played it brilliantly the other day with a "cover our a**es" type article on its website. The article's headline was something like, 'Any change in the track of storm could alter snow totals.' Nice. Way to get out ahead of things in case the 1-2" prediction turned into a 10" drubbing, which it did (and yes, that's what she said).

That's kind of the way weather works.

[FDWxMan]

Far from a soils expert, but it appears a lot of area south of I-80 is right on the edge, based on average 4-inch temps.

Should I buy my beer now or later???

[bellzisu]

So we are not going to see another St. Louis lazy low or whatever Ed called it yesterday?? Which might be the first time I heard that.

Buy it now so you can enjoy it while trying to determine if you need to buy more. You cannot go wrong with this methodology.

Probably just didn't want to say "Texas or panhandle hooker..."

No if you want a name the next one will be more like the clipper variety.
