April 6, 2009: Snow – Sleet – Rain! Say it isn’t so!

  Blah – what happened to the spring weather?  It has gone "BYE BYE".  We had snow, sleet, and rain today.  I was at the farm early this morning and it was RAW.  Cold winds blowing – 20-30 mph winds.  Then it started raining and sleeting – then snow and sleet/rain mix.  It was not pretty.  It was cold!!!!!

  We had heavy sleet showers at times.  I was in Paducah ordering the bathtub for the house and the wind was blowing the sleet against the windows at the store.  You could really hear it.  Crazy weather.  High winds and severe weather one day and snow the next.  Roller coast!!!!

  Cold weather tonight and Tuesday night – then we warm up a bit.  Heavy weather could move back in on Thursday night and Friday.  Severe storms and tornadoes are possible in or near the region.  Will have to keep an eye on the storm track.  As always.

  No storm survey yet, today from the Paducah, NWS.  Waiting to read their survey on the storm that hit our county yesterday.  Four businesses were damaged and two homes.

  Ballard County also had damage to at least one home.

  We worked on cabinets this evening.  I think we have them picked out, now.  I also worked on the weather instruments earlier today.  Trying to get the rain gauge in place and some other stuff.

  We are supposed to be trenching on Friday.  We will have to see if the weather holds.  Hope so, but is not looking good.
