BREAKING NEWS TODAY JANUARY 25, 2026
Thankful we have mostly sleet today...there was freezing rain early. Sleet does not stick to trees or power lines like freezing rain
WE HAVE POWER...so far.
The rest of the story will be featured on FFF and Nature Friday

Below is another fountain in the Gardens at WRAL it too froze in motion.
This is one monster icicle
As of 6pm on Saturday 1/8/18 Raleigh had over 180 consecutive hours of temperatures below freezing and many days only 20 degrees and some nights in the single digits...VERY x 87 million unusual for us. WRAL TV has a fountain in front of the tv station.
To keep the water pipes from busting they have to leave the fountain running or drain it completely.
Over the years it has become a very popular place to take winter photos.
This one was taken 1/6/18
We are tickled pink to say our high yesterday was a balmy 46 tropical degrees

ReplyDeleteNow that is cold... YAM xx
The fountains are so pretty in the freezing temps!
ReplyDeleteIt does look pretty in the midst of a terrible storm.
ReplyDeleteBRRRR. Those fountain pictures are rather amazing
ReplyDeleteI hope the weather isn't too bad for you during this storm. We're just getting lots of snow, but we can handle that.
ReplyDeleteVery impressive ice fountains... yikes! I am seeing light wintry mix for you but later the ice seems to get down to business. Hopefully it wears itself out. Stay safe, stay warm and fingers crossed the power stays on!
