ADS Posted May 1, 2013 Author Share Posted May 1, 2013 There are alot of conflicting reports about the snow potential in Lincoln. Weather channel is saying up to 6 inches, while the National Weather Service is saying less than an inch, mainly on grassy surfaces. Quote Link to comment
Count 'Bility Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 There are alot of conflicting reports about the snow potential in Lincoln. Weather channel is saying up to 6 inches, while the National Weather Service is saying less than an inch, mainly on grassy surfaces. It's probably because of a difference in interpreting the forcast. It's probably going to actually snow enough to produce 6 inches of snow, but since the ground has been warmed quite significantly, you'll probably only see at most an inch of accumulation. We had the same kind of thing here a couple weeks ago. The way is snowed for a few hours, had it been January there'd a been a good 6 inches on the ground, instead all we had at most was an inch with mostly slush, and it was gone by late afternoon.

That's what I was thinking, we need the moisture but all the rain/snow over the next few days really f'd my turkey hunting plans this weekend Quote Link to comment

knapplc Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 I just put down weed killer/fertilizer and some gardener's fertilizer in the flowerbeds and vegetable garden, so I'm loving this moisture. The snow... not so much. Quote Link to comment
QMany Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Killing my golf game. The course is open, but the range has only been open 3-4 days in the last month. This Winter Storm stuff was fun, now it sucks. Quote Link to comment

The snow... not so much. I thatched and fertilized couple weekends ago. This is the second batch of rain. Nice cool weather with some sunny days has the lawn bee-eee-a-utiful, but it's quickly growing beyond control. This batch of rain will hopefully end soon enough for me to get it mowed here in the next few days one way or another. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Well, guess my weed control, fertilizer and grub control is getting soaked in! Snow, ice, rain here..... Quote Link to comment
StPaulHusker Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Pretty much missed us in St Paul, MN. Although it is still cold. I am just happy because I put away the snowblower last week Quote Link to comment
T_O_Bull Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Sounds like there is a lot of snow coming for the states east of the Missouri River. T_O_B Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I REFUSE to shovel anything or use my snowblower............f*&k it! Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Well, guess my weed control, fertilizer and grub control is getting soaked in! Snow, ice, rain here..... That was my silver lining, too. Walked around the yard and saw that all my fertilizer and pre-emergent had soaked in. Good, light, soaking rain so it didn't wash away, too. Quote Link to comment
T_O_Bull Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I REFUSE to shovel anything or use my snowblower............f*&k it! Spring is good for clearing snow. My shovel and blower are in the shed and my lawnmower and spreader are in the garage. T_O_B Quote Link to comment
