So is it thunder in Januray or is it February ...

I hope February, after our break. They got smart and added the ***snow make up days to the calendar for Feb. so no snow until after!
 
The weather "experts" at another board seem to think that sometime after the 11th - especially next weekend - will bring much colder temps and, depending on available moisture, snow!

February looks to be promising, too. I would love another few days in the snow (although the whole week like last year was probably a bit much.)

I always love a snow day. I can get an unexpected day off without too much guilt. If no one else can get to us, it's okay to not be at work!
 
There is a saying around here and I can't remember which month it is (January or February) ... supposedly if there is thunder in that month, it will (so they say) snow within 10 days of that happening.
 
Ugh. I don't care what it does. I just can.not.take the warm/cold/warm/cold any longer. My sinuses are terrible. Everytime it warms up a bit I can't breathe. Am I the only one this happens to? Lol

Also, a yellow jacket landed on my arm yesterday. It seemed dazed. Lol
 
Yes, MrsB this is also playing havoc with my sinuses. However, I'll keep all the warm January, February and March weather we get. :D

I found these: Thunder in January, snow in a week. Thunder in February, frost in May.

After a little looking online I found nearly the same thing. Thunder in January means snow in 7-10 days (the stories vary) and thunder in February means the last frost will be on or about the same day of the month in April. (Thunder on Feb. 12 means last frost on April 12.)

Ok, how many other "old farmers' tales" do y'all know?

Are you talking about GON? I love that site. They're talking about theh possibility of a major snow/ice event in February/March. :runningtochecksupplies:
 
I love GON, too. Those guys started a weather message board but it's gone now. :( I can still go to GON and get my weather forecasts. DDD originally said something about the 17th, that's 10 days from the thunderstorms. :)

Georgia Outdoor News, mostly a hunting and fishing message board but there are a couple of guys that are really really good at understanding the weather and letting us in on some of the good stuff. Here's the thread on the winter weather this year. It's already up to 9 pages, just go to the last two or three and see what they are saying. http://forum.gon.com/showthread.php?t=632592
 
I've always heard about the thunder in January thing but it was from the same person who told me the Christmas tree thing. There can't be any snow there at the end of the month, we have a connecting flight in Atlanta and I don't want to be delayed.
