Radio just said we have 6" here in Clinton. I have never seen it lightening while snowing before. The thunder will rock the truck and the lightening is very bright. Looks like our plants here in town will be closing early today. Now to get everyone out of here and try to make it back across town.
we have a slight dusting here, lots of thunder early, and just now started sleeting a bit. weird weather.
Good day to stay in and watch the Daytona 125's,,, :ThumbsUp:ThumbsUp
Thunder snow here also
:popcorn
Here it is almost spring and now we get winter.. Its a ice mess in camdenton
All sleet here in Clinton now. Finally headed home. Pot of chili and a little NASCAR.
Probably over 10" in Raymore, shoveled half the drive (twice) so I can get to the office tomorrow.
About the same here by the airport.Quote:

It's bright and sunny in Burfordville.:biggrin 75 degrees, the birds are blooming, flowers are singing. :Rofl
.5 inch ice in Reeds Spring 1" of sleet/snow on top of it. I like the powder stuff better.
Took me an hr to make it to work, and when I got here they told me the plant was closed....I think I said something that would translate to "a phone call would have been nice".....but it came out "@%#$#^^%*(@!^#$^%8'?":banghead
Your right. The lightning was very bright. I have heard thunder while snowing but I think that was the first time seeing lightning like that.
Hope it aint scarrin dem crappie! My dog is pretty nervous.
They shut the GM plant down at 10:30 am , and it took me over an hour and half to get home today . Work is scheduled for tomorrow . I hope the roads are clear !
Not even trying it tomorrow. Phones forwarded, all data uploaded to laptops... we're good for working from home.
So as the old wives tale goes thunder snow in Feb. means frost on same day in April we will see.
Had about 12 inches here in Grandview. Sat and drank coffee till about 11:30. Started up the snow blower and spent the next 4 hours behind that.
Forgot to take pics but had some drifts in front of the garage that were above my knee.
Ripnlips you can quit all that talk about frost in April. Would be interesting to see if it happens I guess.
I find that kind of talk very offensive. You need to be reported to the moderator.Quote:

Looks like round two of snow is coming first of the week.
I find this type of talk offensive!!Quote:

hopefully this is one of those "last bit of winter" snow storms and in 3 weeks we'll be wearing shorts! White Flag Icon winter we surrender!
Contemplating getting a hotel room close to the office at least for Monday night. I've already been out of the office since Wednesday evening.
We need the moisture but this late in the year I would prefer the liquid variety!
:hesaid I love snow, but i prefer it in January, not the end of Feb.
After the last couple weeks a little frost in April sounds like a breeze. Hope you all did not get hit too hard mostly rain here in Rolla area and what snow showed up melted when it landed. Will be up several times tonight to see if I have to go in to plow/spread salt.
just don't tell the old wives we are checking on them and their tales!White Flag Icon
I hate to be a downer but the old wives tale that "Easter has to pass before you can rule out snow" is a truism. :mad:
I have seen it snow on or just before or on Easter more than once here in the great state of MO...... So a little frost would be tolerable I think.
That said Now you can blame ME for a late snow and give Beagle a little break. :twocents
And NO I am NOT hopeing for it.White Flag Icon
