Yeah, we don't get the publicity for our storms. We could be having the biggest blizzard since 1888, and Houston could get a half inch of rain, and the Weather Channel would be freaking about about how there is in inch of water in the streets.
"OMG the world is ENDING here in Houston. People are selling their babies for food and water and bread.....oh and on another note, it's snowing in South Dakota....back to Houston. AHHHHHHHHH the humanity!" |

I don't know about those records, it didn't rain 20 miles south of Aberdeen at all, and on the morning news yesterday at 4:30am they were already reporting 7 inches of snow in Aberdeen, and it snowed alot more during the day.
Blizzard warning still in effect until noon today. This post has been edited by Middle of Nowhere Guy: Feb 11 2013, 05:49 AM |

Oh and you know it's not good outside when the scroll on the bottom of the screen on the tv doesn't say such and such highway closed and no travel advised, but it just says, "no travel advised in central and NE South Dakota" Pretty much a blanket statement lol

Wind has finally let up, just a little gust here and there. Got the skid steer and tractor with the plow on the front warming up. Yay, long day of pushing snow. (it's kind of fun though when you use large equipment instead of a snow blower or shoveling)

Maybe the record was a typo or something. EDIT: Actually now looking at their site I think they updated it to just a record snowfall and not rain. May have just been a typo. The record for snow was 8.4". QUOTE(Middle of Nowhere Guy @ Feb 11 2013, 09:38 AM) Wind has finally let up, just a little gust here and there.

Ok, official record for Aberdeen on Feb 10.
" The National Weather Service in Aberdeen reported 12.8 inches of snow at 9 p.m. The amount shattered a 65-year-old record for the most amount of snow on Feb. 10. The previous record was 3.4 inches of snow in 1948." I don't know where those other reports came from, but I looked outside as was like no, not even close lol |
