hey you Carolina boys.....

[C YENSEN]

you all getting some snow this morning????? enjoy it:sun:

[Pipe_Dream]

None this far down, but I saw reports of snow falling up around Columbia, Florence and such. It's not uncommon for the upstate to see some snow, but pretty rare in these parts. I have live here 20 years this April, and have seen it snow here maybe 5 or 6 times. I would mind seeing a few inches of snow, and my dogs would love it! And it would be fun because everyone freaks out, and all the stores and schools would be closed!

[csvencer]

Everything is closed up here in the Norfolk area. Its like we had a blizzard, except its only flurries with a possibility of 1 - 3 inches...

well dont forget to post some pics of the snow everyone gets.....:thre::beer:

[chumbucket]

1-3"? That's it?:bat: We got another 15" at my house over the weekend. We don't shut anything down. :nut:

[csvencer]

Its crazy how everyone is freaking out. I don't get it. I guess its not as bad as when my wife was a teacher in Miami and parents would call in to see if school was closed because it was below 50!!!

CB is in the jack pot area! I only have like 8" here.

Been lightly snowing here but not enough to stick. I called flight service and they told me the main part of the storm/snow from Raleigh hasn't arrived here yet because of the low pressure system holding it back off the coast. They say it will hit between 3-5pm and then dump 5-6" on us.

BTW it's snowing pretty hard here now (1:00pm)

[spareparts]

i actually saw a few flakes floating around on my way home, a rare site down here

We got a lot(for around here). Up here north of you in Columbia, SC. It was actually snowing pretty good Downtown Columbia. Snowing pretty good for downtown I should say!

I've got about 1 to 1 1/2 inches on my back proch right now. It's been a loooong time since we've seen snow down here too. All the schools announced yesterday they were gonna be closed today. Bad thing is, all the snow that had a chance to melt today is gonna freeze hard b/c it's going down to low 20's tonight. It'll be ice city here in the morning.

[chumbucket]

Low 20's is not a hard freeze. Youz guys need to come up this way for a bit. :zip:

We got about what BC said - 1 - 1.5 inches.

Saturday morning it was 8 degrees at my house. I stepped out for a bit after unloading some firewood. When I got home 3 hours later a pipe had busted and about 15 - 20 gallons of H2O was spread nice and evenly across my floor!! Luckily it was all downstairs which is block foundation w/ a concrete slab so no damages whatsoever....just a lengthy cleanup process. The pipe that busted was pex and I was able to take a few, ok SEVERAL pieces of wood siding off the side of the house to find it (turned it on for a second and listened). Then I had to borrow a pex crimping tool from my father-in law at 10:30 pm Monday night. Had it all fixed and siding back on before 1 am!! FUN FUN FUN!!

P.S. this morning it was 14 degrees. I insulated the SH*T out of those pipes while I was in there!!

We had just enough to close schools much to my wife and daughters delight!!..(When Mama's happy, Daddy's happy)

BR...hadda plumber tell me PEX wouldn't split open when frozen...said they tested section full of water and capped off in the freezer...guess he has lots to learn...:head:

[Skools Out]

we got 6 inchs and last night was a cold freeze of 10* so that's 2 mornings in a row ice skating to work lol.

[Blue_Runner]

Reel I thought it was unusual considering my buddy has completely exposed pex running into his guest house and not a problem.

This was a 2.5 inch section of 1/2 inch pex connected to an elbow on one end and to a 1/2 inch copper pipe w/ fitting on the other. It didn't split - your buddy was right about that!! It popped like a chewing gum bubble!!

[C YENSEN]

what the hell is pex?:head:

[csvencer]

Some sort of PVC?
