Dave1291 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Supposed to warm up a bit then rain, then a major snowstorm is supposed to come down and hang over the state. 8-10, 12-14 predicted. Sounds like fun but I'm good just hangin out til spring! Ohio the heart of it all. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave1291 Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Good luck with it @dirtmudd! Going to hole up here for a few days too. This is the same way the blizzard of '78 happened in Ohio. 60 degrees the day before then the front hammered us. Stay safe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was in Thule Greenland for a year at -40F for six months they would put kerosene in the radiators, a plywood sheet in front of the radiator or the engine would never warm up, battery heater, head heater, plastic stick um sheets on the inside of the windows as the defrosters were useless, when parked outside never shut the engine off or it will never start again, 4 wheel drive is mandatory as the grease freezes the wheel bearings and it takes 1/4 mile to unlock them, transmission fluid into all the differentials, and chains on all four wheels. These chains would occasionally let go at 50 mph on sand covered ice roads and leave shrapnel holes in the fenders. JJK 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave1291 Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Looks like about 6" down now, drives plowed shut, 23 degrees and it's expected to put down about an inch an hour this afternoon. Then 40mph winds. Interesting Wait and hit it or hit it today and again in the morning or let it go. Think I'll play it safe and break out that blower and git-er- done in a while. Zero traffic tells me that the morons MIGHT have smartened up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The weatherman said we were getting a dusting of snow but wound up with 14-inches. Temps went down to -25F with wind chill down to -50F. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buck115 Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Here in the Piney Woods of East Texas it is 28 degrees and dropping. We've gotten 2.05 inches of rain since yesterday afternoon with a light mixture of sleet today. I don't see any ice forming on the trees and no icicles at this time. Our County Road doesn't appear to have any ice on the surface, but that will probably change as the temperature continues to drop. I think it is supposed to get down to 20 degrees tonight with a high of 34 degrees tomorrow. Our main concern is power outages! Think I might crank up the fireplace before long! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
