Did I miss the Day 11 give away? And who on here felt the 4.4 magnitude earthquake that hit TN this morning?
Charlie sent me a text this morning at 6 and he had 32% on his phone. Im assuming it died is why nothing has been posted lol

Day 11 prize should be a phone charger and whoever wins gives it to him

I have a feeling the next major threat is going to be larger (originating from the gulf/phase) for Texas all the way across to NC. Kind of the reason I wanted to go ahead with the upgrade so soon.

I don't really have a time-frame, but I have seen some of the Strat warming maps and am intrigued to see if that will get here in the Mid-Late Winter or screw our Spring up severe wise.
Well you did awesome!! Can’t wait to see the final theme of everything. ?
 
I'm glad I got a new phone a couple of weeks ago. The battery actually lasts all day.
Yea. I been thinking about getting one myself. It’s like you have to leave it plugged half the time. I have a iPhone 7s plus and love it. I want the new iPhone 10s max. But don’t want to pay $1400 dollars for it.

Same.... I'm not constantly attached to a cable somewhere. Got the Samsung S8 which I thoroughly love, funny both my girls who have Iphones really like my Samsung. I'm stubborn, have no desire to hop on the Iphone bandwagon Lol

I got the same one. Verizon had it on special for $10 a month versus $33 a month for the Galaxy S9. I used it a lot last week with the incoming storm, and the battery was great.

Again... Same! Lol In fact the rep at Verizon did a comparison of the S8 and the S9 for and was completely honest in saying that the only true difference was with the camera, which wasn't a big deal for me. So I would basically been paying double for the same phone

Lmao . I just got the new phone through work about 6 months ago and I’ve already fried the battery. Maybe I should get one of those portable charges and carry it everywhere I go ?‍♂️

It's a little funny to me how long term memory works. I can remember major things but not the smaller details. I have to dig DEEEPPP to remember things that were many years ago.

Like (and even those have faded some) I'll remember stuff that happened from the 1/26/04 ice storm but after that I don't remember much of anything from when I was 8 lol.
 
Nobody in North GA felt the quake this morning ?
I felt it. Second time for me. I was asleep and awoke to shaking as if someone was nudging me to wake up and then I heard what I thought was a bird flapping it's wings or a pet (which I don't own) scratching at my door. It sounded like someone was trying to get into my room.

So who on here is an expert in cryptocurrencies? Good idea, bad idea? As an investment other than stocks crypto or metals (gold or silver)?
 
Crypto is crashing. Do at your own risk. The real winners got on bitcoin (mainly) before anyone took it serious.

Gold is a precious metal, but will always bounce around. Its more of a life savings thing that you will hope will make $10-100 more per ounce by the time you cash out vs what you paid. At least in my opinion. It is solid,.of course, versus printed money.

The only way to make good cash (get rich) is to do risky endeavors. The average person "plays it safe" and makes a small nestegg, while the large investors who are raking in cash, lose a lot, but hit big on some very risky investments.

To add to my previous post let me give a tad bit of trivia/info.

If things go to Hell in this country we can learn from the Soviet collapse. Things like gold, money, jewelry, etc had very little value. People wanted things like food (bread, rice) of course.. but one of the biggest items was soap. People wanted to be able to clean up. Followed closely after by alcohol.

So, hoard soap (laundry soap and body) and alcohol.

The laundry soap is easy.. you can make your own cheap with borax to hoard. I know this sounds like jokes, but it is not!

INVEST IN SOAP

Well we started raising a few dairy goats and one of the items we are going to start making is goat milk soap..... so I'm golden!
 
Okay, so speaking of that. I was just using the bathroom and was thinking about what to add to the site.

What do you guys think of a gardening/prepping/lifestyle subsection? It could work on this website because weather plays an important role and we are a specific region so many tips and threads will apply to most everyone here.

And in theory, we could get new users interested in that kind of stuff and slowly turn them into snow weenies.

I’m still having trouble uploading photos taken from my Iphone. As long as I “save image” from google I am able to post a picture. Other than that, I can’t post personal photos. Any help?
 
What's that old wive's tale about snow staying on the ground longer than three days brings more snow?

It’s if snow stays on the ground 7 days, it’s waiting for another snow.
