Ed Cesnalis Posted September 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 I remember a July day when I was scheduled to receive a semi truck full of building insulation. The truck spent 4 hours blocking the main road in town. The driver didn't have chains and the summer storm left 2 feet of snow. He stayed there till it melted.

FastEddieB Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 46°f on our porch this morning in the N GA mountains. Brrrrrrrr! Still, gotta love fall - glad we didn't just skip over it like Mammoth Lakes might have! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingMonkey Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 I guess I have to dust off my jackets here too. It was in the mid-50s this morning in North Georgia, but not as far north as Eddie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug G. Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 Wimps! lol It does not get cold until it gets to -20 and windy. And then you have to go out and blow snow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Cesnalis Posted September 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 Last fall we got 25' of snow, here it is very early fall and this morning we have heavy snowfall???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Lee Posted September 26, 2013 Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 Hi Doug, I love being a warm weather wimp. Less clothes to store, less to wear, more flying days, only one set of tires to keep and less anti freeze I would have to drink to stay warm. LOL Even all the ducks come here for the winter.

sandpiper Posted September 26, 2013 Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 Wimps! Valdez, AK averages 400" per year. In Fairbanks I have seen it be minus 40F or colder 24/7 for 3 weeks straight, warm up and snow for a week then do it again. Sun is up for 3.5 hours barely skimming above the southern mountains. Then there is the ice fog and you can't see it at all. But, maybe I'm the wimp. I left after 42 winters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duane Jefts Posted September 26, 2013 Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 Valdez does get a lot of snow. I landed there once in a C-130. Snow banks so high and close I could not exit the runway. We off loaded our people and equipment on the runway then BACKED up the length of the runway for the subsequent take off. Too narrow to even turn around on the runway. Those were the good old days. John, I bet you have a lot of good stories to tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Lee Posted September 26, 2013 Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 Hi John, That's why all the smart people live much further south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C ICEY Posted September 26, 2013 Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 We're not far behind! (the larches are just starting to turn, although the valleys are still green, the best of fall colours to come.) It beautiful to climb these hills in the cold!~~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandpiper Posted September 26, 2013 Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 John, I bet you have a lot of good stories to tell. We all have good stories to tell, and some we probably don't want to tell! Hi John, That's why all the smart people live much further south. Well, I did eventually move but don't know if that was smart or not. For sure you don't have to shovel rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
