10 inches of snow tomorrow in Arkansas ??

[Ohio Rusty]

Our newscaster here in Ohio just said that Tuesday into Wednesday you folks in Arkansas could get 10 inches of snow !! That much snow in Arkansas ?? how strange. You folks are supposed to be warm right now. Here in S.E. Ohio where we are normally cold, Wednesday we may get an inch, then turning to rain. So much for global warming this week ...

All that global warming causes strange things to happen. Grocery store was busy as we gathered up the necessary stuff to survive inside for a couple of days.

[Shawlerbrook]

Well we got about 10” last night and today and expecting another shot Wednesday into Thursday. Can’t complain though as we had very little snow since December.

[BLAHUT]

Minneapolis has officially, over 52" at airport, on the ground with more forecast every day in the next week.

[Rapier]

Snow is a four letter word, ending with shovel.

[Handloader109]

Nope, max a bit over 5 inches in the Boston Mountains, most areas look to get from 1 to 3 inches. Here in NW corner, we got 10 plus and then 8 more a day later then 6 about a week later. (First was pretty much gone by the third snow) back in 2012. Usually get 2 to 10 inches, once or twice a year. Has about 2 inches so far in December. Which was unusual. Mostly in Jan or Feb. Oh, had over 2 inches with a bit of ice here in 2019 on May 1st

There is yet another one coming for you.
This morning south of Tucson 9AM my poor little old dog and I were caught in a blowing snow flurry.
Blue sky with squall lines then bam, snow.
Visby dropped to 100 yards, I tucked the little critter into my hoodie, Chico pulled his head in.
He usually wants to see where we're going, peeking, but not today.
At the bottom of the hill, wind stopped, streaky blue sky, cold, like 40F.
We have had rainy days in the desert, this winter.

Bald tires, bad teeth and 10" of snow? No thanks!

Where I am at in Michigan we have barely got 10 inches of snow all winter.

[Handloader109]

Was supposed to reach 40f by noon, it is 33, up from 27 at my house, and it might reach 35 or 36 but not the 40 they predict....

Advisory for my area of NE Arkansas says 3-6". But it is supposed to get back to middle 40's tomorrow also? I lived in Fayetteville while I was in law school. Y'all always got the lion's share of snow. There were times I thought I was in NW Kansas instead of Arkansas when I lived there.

+11.3 degrees here at the moment (8 a.m.). Had to restock my back porch with firewood, which involved digging out the firewood pile. Like the postcards say, "Having a wonderful time...wish you were here!"

we got 10 minutes of blinding snow/ice storm yesterday morning then it all turned to rain weather man say expect 1/2" rain tonight and snow might try again and come back Thursday morning
I cant complain today it started out at 23 degrees and sunny clear sky.

[georgerkahn]

Our good news is only two inches more forecast for today, through mid evening; in the wee hours of Wednesday snow will again start, dropping eight to twelve more inches. Weather map shows us right on "cusp" blue line, so wife's betting on the eight inches. Doesn't matter much to me -- I filled the Kubota tractor with Diesel; have it plugged in (I have a remote-control wireless switch to turn on block heater hopefully a couple hours before I start it); and, I have my iPod Shuffle charged so I can listen to some great tunes as I move the white stuff. Only challenge is I may be running out of places to move it...309672 photo is wife in front of a "snow mountain" -- on asphalt roadway.

[375supermag]

I feel your pain...
We had a major winter storm event here in Southcentral Pennsylvania yesterday.
The local weather guessers were nearly apoplectic with their breathless pronouncements of road hazards that might occur.
We got about 1" of wet snow that melted away in a couple of hours.
Armageddon was averted...humanity was saved and the bread, milk and toilet paper catastrophe was cancelled.
Close call...Gov. Shapiro came out of his safe space and declared that he had worked hand in hand with Pres. Biden to save the state and that the compromised Dominion voting machines were already programmed to guarantee another Democrat party victory in the next election.

[curdog007]

We'll see in the morning - the first 3" came fast just on dark. My son is out plowing the highway right now (in the old plow truck I used to drive).

I was out in it this evening, and there sure are a lot of people out in it that would make everyone safer if they just stayed at home.

I'll be out in it tomorrow doing my job. Someone has to do it.

[Texas by God]

We’re getting much needed moisture so a little of the strange white stuff is welcome. My wife drove in snow for the first time tonight. With my coaching(5 or 6 times driving in snow experience), she did great!

Temp staying right at freezing. Wet heavy crap. 3 plus inches at 9pm and it still falling hard. It waited till about 330 this afternoon to start, and temp was 36, so most melted as it hit. But temp fell and it started staying around. Trees gonna be pretty in morning, my oaks out back are holding an inch or so on the limbs. I figure 6 to 8 by daylight. Ain't nearly a mountain, don't envy anyone dealing with it for months...

Just a dusting with T-Shirt weather.

The part of Texas I am in got over 6 inches of rain in a few hours.

Almost identical conditions, late yesterday afternoon. Started sticking about 4:30 PM. About 3" on the ground when we went to bed. Lost power at 11:16 PM, per the electric coop. Still off. Whole house propane generator running. Dog still sleeping so I haven't been out to check the amount of snow we got since then. My estimate is around 8 inches, so far. Guessers saying light snow/snow showers till about 9 AM. Supposed to hit 40 degrees, today. Fifty degrees for a high Friday and Saturday.

Looks like it stopped in NE Arkansas and the boot heal of Missouri, got to within about 80 miles of us. We got high gusty winds and heavy rain. Thank the Lord no snow!

[Handloader109]

Well, about 6 inches are on the ground, it has stayed 33 to 34f so the underlayer is constant melting. Open rail had 7 inches, I expect roughly 8 or 9 actually fell. Was out with my 2 old terriers at 2am and it was still falling like mad. Only a few limbs fallen, I have 3 river birch at front and its broken several 2 and 3 inch limbs. Hate the trees, but I can't take down myself. 6 ft from house. Hopefully most of the white will be gone by nightfall.

Being a replant to AR the snow isn't a big deal the power out coming up on 12hr is slightly annoying.

[JoeJames]

"Well, about 6 inches are on the ground, it has stayed 33 to 34f so the underlayer is constant melting." You know, I had forgotten about that. Last snow with similar circumstances - the driveway started melting in the main ruts, but not off the road.

We didn't get anything except rain here in central Arkansas. It started about noon yesterday and rained until the wee hours of this morning. The Wife and I were out for a little while yesterday afternoon and saw a little sleet hitting the windshield. I saw where there were about 9000 power outages across the Northern part of the State.

Knock wood, but up here in NE Arkansas we are often to far north for rain and too far south for snow; so we get ice. That bullet missed us this time.

375supermag - Love the way you write. That was funny. True, but funny.

Round two of the 2023 Snow Apocalypse struck today here in southcentral Pennsylvania.
From around 10:00 until 1:00 or so we had an absolute epic snowstorm...near blizzard conditions if you listened to the local weather prognosticators.
It was truly horrific... Once the snow fall started to slow down, I decided to venture out with my two Labrador Retrievers to survey the newly formed arctic landscape.
My Labs were not terribly impressed...they usually go crazy in the snow but I guess the sheer volume of snow was sufficient to intimidate them into simply wandering about The Estate in what must pass for canine bewilderment.

When it finally passed we had almost 2" of accumulated snow!!! With the predicted rising temperatures, supposedly into the mid 40sF, it isn't even worth getting out the snow shovels much less the snowblower. It should all be washed away by the rain and rising temperatures.

I think I will confront this latest "blizzard" by relaxing in the recliner in front of the fireplace while sipping a cup of hot Earl Grey tea.

The terrible struggles of coping with winter's cold and snow are the bane of my existence.

[winelover]

We received 9 inches of snow, according to the local radio station and set a new record.

Still without power. The coop had ours back on for about ten minutes, yesterday morning. Said it might not be till the weekend before power is restored. Whole house propane generator is taking care of business.

Well it is a sheet of ice today. So much moisture in the snow that I can walk on it and not break through. Ain't going any where today, barely above freezing.

Sent from my SM-S908U using TapatalkA little better than that; driveway ruts have thawed out, but ramp from the highway to the driveway is still iced over to where I do not wish to check the mail today.

I plowed my up hill 100 yard gravel drive with the Polaris Ranger SXS. Took most of the Wednesday because I could only push the width of the drive, due to so much moisture. Yesterday, the sun was out all day and temperatures hit near 40 degrees so drive is down to the gravel. My acreage has highway frontage. Highway was in good shape, due to pretreating and plowing. Today High is 56* and tomorrow supposed to be 52* so everything should disappear, just in time for next week's system. Still without power, coop says should be restored by the weekend. Porpane generator working as designed.

Looks like we may have another round of global warming coming in on Tuesday. Freezing rain. Oh boy!

[.429&H110]

Global warming is overdue.
Mt Lemmon ski area has been open for a month.
Tucson forecast is snow above 3000' Tuesday,
after a full cold gale on Monday.
so here's another one coming.
Actually got to 70F today, first time in a week.
Last year I had beans up in February, but not this year.
