The name of the game in central Missouri is flooding with a tornado warning ever now and then. Thinking about moving a mattress to the basement so as to reduce loss of sleep when hiding out there.
 
A storm producing just about a foot of snow in Worcester passed through Massachusetts on May 9th and 10th that year. The storm caused a lot of tree damage as the trees were already leafed out. The National Guard was called out to help with the cleanup.
 
Where I live it is real close to 4000ft and the record high for May 2 is 80 and the low 16. We average 72 inches of snow per year and the only months it has never snowed are July and August. It rarely gets over 90.

Hmmm. My cabin sits at 7,880', and the lowest elevation I've
visited in Wyoming is above 4,000'. I don't pay much attention
to low or high temps. If it hits 84° where I live I begin to think
about climbing.

We've logged snow all 12 months.

I've measured this season's snow at 106". We're expecting 3" tonight.
Saturday's forecast says, "60 degrees." Can you say, "mud"?

Weather is relative, and we call it the "equalizer"!

That's one of the reasons we enjoy the U.S.'s lowest population.

As I tell the tourists who fall is love in the summer, "Don't tell your friends."

There is a reason most of northern Wyoming drains into Montana :D

More snow this morning

All the more reason to stay below I-10.

Glad that you and a lot of others feel that way

Couple questions

How much do you spend on air conditioning below I 10? Any cockroaches and rats down there? None up here. How about "undocumented" immigrants? You got any of those? They figure there are less than 5000 in this state and half of them are from Canada. How much public land do you have to hunt fish and camp on? We have 30 MILLION acres, Texas has 1 million. Can you buy 2 over the counter elk tags like I can here? Can you hunt elk from Sept to the middle of Feb. like here? Everyone down there speak English like they do up here? Hows your murder rate? Ours is has gone up to 4 while Texas was over 8. The whole state of Montana with 1.1 million had 35 murders last year while the 2.3 million in Houston had 348 last year. We have had one murder in our county in the last 20 years.

I stay up here and deal with a skiff of snow in May
