Weather Report, Survivor Blog Pool Update


I snapped the two photos here in this post out my window just a few minutes ago. The good news is that the Winter Storm Warning until 6 AM (tomorrow) has been canceled according to the National Weather Service website. Yes, really!

The bad news is that it's been replaced with a Blizzard Warning of the same duration. Oh, well. I have no reason to go outside other than to maybe take some photographs. I'm already hearing of barricaded roads, tree limbs down and the like on my scanner. I had a package due today from Amazon. But checking the tracking -- "delayed due to weather or natural disaster." M'kay. As long as my power stays on, I'm as snug as a bug in a rug here.

If you haven't checked already, I have part one on the Amazing Race teams up and a brief on the Lost episode.

OK... I have Candice... I cannot remember which one she is, so I'll wait for the first episode.

Lars...we must cheer her on... I hope she has enough meat on her bones to last a while.

Jackie those snow photos are beautiful. I don't want any of it, but they sure are purty!

Thanks for the blog so we can come comment.

Thanks for posting this.

Jackie, the photos are beautiful, but they make me shiver!

Margo, Margo, Margo.... Jerri? Are you trying to tell me something? I had Russell the Roach last time and now Jerri the Biotch?

Hope she is out soon so I can climb on Colby's float.

Yay, Sizzie we got James.

A wee bit of eye candy and overall fun to watch. One of my favorites. And he is even from the same town as me....albeit in different states....Indiana, Louisiana...same difference.

I like Sandra, she won her season. But if I remember right, she wasn't a fan favorite for some reason that I can't remember.

Those pictures you shot, Jackie, remind us Yankees, on occasion, of the beautiful side of winter. Most of the time we just mutter about cold, slush and snow and forget the good stuff. Thanks for putting them up.

I just read that Candice is from NC originally, so I guess I have to root for her for now. If she goes out early, can I go on with Lisanne and Sizzie. James was a favorite of mine.

Beautiful snowy trees Jackie, stay warm!

I used to want to live where it snowed a lot in the winter. Now that I am older and get colder, I wish I lived where it was 70 year around.

I know it does not hold a candle to you guys getting all the snow, but I am not used to weeks and weeks of high temps in the 30's and 40's and rain 4 out of 7 days a weeks.

Bring on spring!

Yay, the picks are out. Well, Sydney I guess we have Danielle. I didn't watch that season very much, but I know she finished second (and she beat Cirie in a fire starting challenge). I'm just really jazzed up to get this season started. :)

JoyN, your Sandra I loved on her season. She has a lot of spunk and will be very interesting to watch.

See everyone tomorrow night! Weeeeee!!

PDX Granny said...

I'm looking forward to watching Cirie. Delee, it's up to us to cheer her on and make sure she lasts!

I really liked her the first time she was on. The All Stars season, I missed. I've not heard great things about her from that time. Even she mentioned something about being surprised she's considered a Hero.

My fingers are crossed that the original Cirie is the one who shows up to play.

But, if she get's voted out early, I'll just join everyone on the James raft. : )

Jackie, I almost forgot ~ your pictures, as usual, are awesome! I can't believe all the snow that's hitting back there! It makes me thankful for the rain.

Nana in the NW said...

Yahoo--I have Stephanie. I always liked her and she is quite a scrapper. Even better I have a fellow west coast viewer as my teammate--Karen in Ca. I've got a new swimsuit and ready for the party to begin!

This should be a fun season to watch all those people with big egos try to outdo each other with their wit, conning, and knowledge of the game(just ask any of them!!).

Those of you got in the Winter Blizzard stay safe, indoors and warm.

Great pictures! So glad I don't live in snow anymore!! Its nice for a day or so, and then just gets dirty..

Ok, so I have Tyson...don't have much hope of winning with that pool of sharks circling around LOL. Absolutely LOVED the top 10. Getting so pumped!!

I will be at the party tonight with Yau-Man and the others and will take some picts to share. Yau-Man is quoted in the paper this morning as saying the only reason he didn't go for this season is that he was just plain out of vacation!

joy n said...

I really wish Yau-Man had been able to participate. I'd heard he had been involved with some pre-determined charity thing. Either way he will be missed.

Sydney said...

beautiful pix Jackie. Nothing better than being snug and cozy when it's blizzarding out!

MONTY -- we're a team!!!! yay! Can't wait til tonight! Now I have to go back and check on my person in your bio posts. I was so excited seeing this post that I didn't even check who I got, just that I was with Monty, lol
