Last week we got 9" of snow and it's been around 30 degrees for the past few weeks. Typical NJ winter. Tomorrow it is going to be 72 and today it is going to be 65. Think I might take my motorcycle out for a ride. [:)]

    2 days ago we got 2" of snow, yesterday it was 50*, thunderstorms with hail last night, this morning it was mid 40s and 5 hours later it's wind chill is in the low 10s with more snow on the way.

    This winter has been full of crazy ups and downs on temp, must be global warming

    A week or so ago we were under a tornado watch with several severe thunderstorms. Starting at 6:00pm Sunday, we will be under a winter storm warning with sleet and freezing rain expected. Today (Saturday) it's 60?.

    It was 72 here yesterday afternoon and 29 last night, here in the pines. This morning, it is 34 and feels like it is 50. The wind is howling though. We have site in day at the club, for the public, but with a strong 35+ wind, it doesn't look good. I have to open the gates at 11, But I got a feeling I will be all alone. Too windy to site in a rifle, accurately, today. These are the guys getting ready for PA rifle season, which opens next Monday.This is actually our second site in day. Today is for the lazy folk, who didn't bother to do this already.[:D][;)] Oakie

    At about 8pm a confirmed tornado was spotted on the ground about 15 miles due west of me. Storm finally came through here at about 8:30. Funnel was not far. I have never seen clouds wrapping around like they were, just crazy got really calm, then windy but last confirmed touchdown was about 4 miles from me. Never seen anything like it. Tried to get some pictures of the back end of the storm, the "hook" passed close by and upper level clouds where wrapped around the back end. Pictures didn't turn out very good at all. [:(]

    Almost seventy yesterday up here in New York on the Vermont border. I had a great day shooting skeet...planned on going back today...

    There is now six inches of snow on the ground and it's still coming down...maybe I'll still go shoot as long as the wind dies down..

    maybe I'll just go reload...

    Yep. Same here. Raked up last of the leaves yesterday, washed the cars and done about 30 minutes before the rain started. Had 2 inches of snow by midnight and its lightly snowing now.
