We have seen a few flakes of snow, no accumulation, and no ice yet. Areas just about 50 miles north had some serious ice storms this weekend but it was an all rain event here. The weather forecast shows more rain with no frozen precipitation, coldest temperature will be 26F.
If this rain keeps up, I think I'll need to start building an ark.

I haven't checked to see if the rain is a record but I've been here since the 70's and don't remember this much over such an extended period of time. Property is looking like a "hog waller" right about now! Definitely concerned about septic performance given that the soil is super saturated!
