Let it snow. http://www.wunderground.com/radar/radblast.asp?ID=AKQ®ion=b5&lat=37.32701874&lon=-76.75834656&label=Williamsburg%2c%20VA Title: Re: Winter Finally Arrives in the Tidewater Post by: KB2WIG on January 17, 2008, 11:05:52 AM Well, up here in the grate White North, snowfall is a fact of life.
Schadenfreude!! KLC Title: Re: Winter Finally Arrives in the Tidewater Post by: W3SLK on January 17, 2008, 11:51:48 AM Yeah, but having lived in the same area as Steve, they damn near pass out at the sign of a snowflake. The run on milk and bread begins about a week before the storm hits ;)
Title: Re: Winter Finally Arrives in the Tidewater Post by: AF9J on January 17, 2008, 12:36:46 PM Yup, It's supposed to snow today, and then we're supposed to be below zero by Saturday Morning. Such is Wisconsin.

Intarnetz is kewl. ;)
gonna put those parts in today and tomorrow. new bridge rectifier for Miss Jenny. New 'lytic stack too. Come on back, you're missin the first good snow of the year. We got 4 inches in the Panhandle. You got 3 or so down there in the lowlands. Title: Re: Winter Finally Arrives in the Tidewater Post by: Todd, KA1KAQ on January 18, 2008, 04:21:23 PM Ah, yes - another 'BIG' Nor'easter predicted for us that ended up as a couple inches of powder. Sun has been out most of the day, so probably not much of it left.
Where's 'JN hangin' out, and why wasn't I informed? Coulda stowed away, those airliner wheel wells are pretty cozy. ;D Title: Re: Winter Finally Arrives in the Tidewater Post by: Ralph W3GL on January 18, 2008, 06:01:23 PM I think he took his wife and family back to her homeland, way out in the western Pacific... That state of better than 1000 islands called The
Philippines...DU land, don'tshaknow....... Title: Re: Winter Finally Arrives in the Tidewater Post by: Steve - WB3HUZ on January 18, 2008, 06:16:20 PM (http://www.amwindow.org/misc/gif/snow.gif)
Title: Re: Winter Finally Arrives in the Tidewater Post by: w3jn on January 20, 2008, 07:52:21 PM Indeed. Portable DU1 for a few more days then back to the cold/wet.
After livign here for 3 years 92-95, I've only been back once for a few days. The changes here in 12 years are incredible - mostly for the good. I can blow my nose without turning the kleenex black anymore!

I can blow my nose without turning the kleenex black anymore! Noice! A true man-on-the-street's measure of progress. ;D Looking forward to hearing you back on the air when you return, John. Delved into the SP-200SX over the last few weekends, what a work of art inside (aside from the mods, of course). Never saw so much brass and ceramic in a tuning compartment b'fer! Travel safe. We'll save some snow for yas. |
