How is your weather??

[AZjanie]

We have friends and relatives (in-laws and out-laws) in Iowa, Illinois and Ohio and Winter this year has been horrible!

I hear from my sister in central Iowa about the heavy snows, ice storms, temps below zero and just trying to get to the mailbox is a chore!

My friends in Illinois are telling me the same thing with heavy snow and ice. When I chatted with my DS in Ohio this morning he told me they had a thunderstorm last night.

We have had some warmer temps here this week and it has been in the 60's days and mid 30's at night. We are supposed to have rain coming in with high winds again by the weekend so not looking forward to that at all. The sun was out but hiding behind clouds now so an ugly gray day here.

How are things in your neck of the woods??

[momXseven]

We are in the upper 66's and mostly sunny.http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k262/mrsford7/blinky/goodvibes.gif They say we are going to have rain the next 2 day tho. http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k262/mrsford7/blinky/18gloomy.gif

[BaxterTheBunny]

This winter hasn't been too bad here (Atlanta)...knock on wood. Of course we've been in severe drought conditions which doesn't look like it's going to be getting any better anytime soon.

Have a lot of water restrictions. Can't wash the car so we have to go to the car wash. Stuff like that.

Fortunately all our plants and trees are established. Some of the less mature ones have died.

But as far as bad weather, there's been some around us, but we've been very fortunate.

[suzyqz_2007]

Right now it's 63 which is cooler than earlier, it was sunny but the clouds are starting to come in....rain for the next few days. I would rather it be like this year round, I hate the summer here when it's in the 90's.

[CayoKay]

83, with a light breeze... at 4 pm.

:cool:

[Blessings2You]

70 degrees here....oh, wait. You meant OUTside. 25 and dropping like a rock. :D

I live in NW Ohio, and it's been weird as usual.

:D

We can go from t shirts and shorts to 3 layers of clothes and turn the heater up in a couple of hours.

We've had sunshine, T storms, freezing rain and 10" of snow all in the same day 4 times this season that I can think of - and I don't think so good.

:winky:

Right now it's about normal - 20 degrees with 20 mph winds.

The T storms are really out of season though. Very scary. That's what happens before blizzards and off season tornadoes. We got lucky and had neither. Actually, it's been really mild over all. Cold, but mild if that makes sense.

[braingonebad]

And hey, you guys with your 60 degrees and all that... I hope you are enjoying killing me telling me about it.




:Poke:


Just remember that when it's 80 here and 125 where you are.



:icecream:

I'll post pix of my pool. Neener neener.

LOL, OK it doesn't get 125 :p (even tho it feels like it :D) I just don't go outside unless I HAVE to when it's hot.

[sugarboo]

Cloudy, grey and LIGHT RAIN off and on....(On top of our new snow)

35 degrees in Anchor Town

Dreaming of the record heat in Phoenix of 122 (not!)

[DM]

Sunny but very very cold... (single digits):(:(

[sugarboo]

An interesting site I just found thinking of the record temps....

[Koala77]

:rain: YAY :rain: It's raining today! :D

It's been so dry here that our lawns are looking very sick. Our gardens have a sprinkler system to they'e OK, but the poor grass has to be hand watered.

No water restrictions here as yet, but I daresay if we don't get more :rain: then they won't be far away!

Temperature's a pleasant 78 degrees and I'm in Tshirt and shorts.

[Debbie D]

Cold...we were up in Madison, WI this weekend. My son called from Naperville on Sunday, said it was shirtsleeve weather and heavy rain. We were in heavy snow. By the next morning, all of the rain puddles here at home were ice rinks...
It's been such a weird winter here. I can remember the weather guy saying it would be a warmer, drier winter. Boy was he wrong!!

[karousel]

Our weather is boring. It is cold and windy. If it's going to be cold, we should at least get some snow to go with it!!!

[MooseasaurusRex]

Typical 'Spring Teasing' here in the Sandhills of NC.
Bounces anywhere form 50's to 70's during the day and usually 30's at night.

But we finally got enough rain to erase the 2 foot deficit and drought conditions from last summer.

Gonna move north-west one day. Definitely gonna move.

[KarenMarie]

Webster, NY with no snow - what happened to the snow belt - in Rochester for 4 years in the 60's - blizzard after blizzard followed by lake effect snow -

And NC - Moose we were down there - Lenoir - from the middle of Jan for about 10 days to get away from Maine - it snowed Moose school was cancelled and it was pretty darn chilly - so that's it for NC and the Blue Ridge Pkwy -

Up here warm yesterday 45 - temp dropping - supposedly single digits over the weekend and we still have snow - all the rain - sleet - fog - snow - it's still on the ground - down to a foot now - always a snowstorm on St Pats Day - Yipee -

[karousel]

Webster doesn't get near as much snow as we used to and it's a bummer. We should get some in March. I hope.

[Niko]

Hmmm! :Scratch-Head: The land of "Oz" is North West to you, is it not Moose? :confused:


*Note to self............"Have to get spare room refurbished"......

[SallyC]

It's 14 degrees right now in SW Ohio. We had a mini blizzard yesterday and expecting more snow tomorrow. The lows will be in the single digits and the highs in the 20s, all week.

A strange and yet typical winter in SW Ohio.:rolleyes:

I don't know which I hate worse...staying in because of the cold and ice in Winter or staying in because of the heat and humidity in Summer..:eek:

[MooseasaurusRex]

Hmmm! :Scratch-Head: The land of "Oz" is North West to you, is it not Moose? :confused:


*Note to self............"Have to get spare room refurbished"......

Checking Google Earth---
MMMmmm Nope! Even if I countinued to fly northwesterly arond the entire planet, I still wouldn't land anywhere near that big red rock God dropped in the middle of your desert or the Sydney Opera House, beautiful.

I would love to see your country, though. So go ahead and get the room ready. ;) A gorilla sized, man-monster American with a nuerilogical disorder and hormonal imbalance renting your spare room? What would the neighbors think?:eek:

Did you ask my DH if he wanted a 'bunkie'???? ;):D:D

[Carolina]

Currently, it is 10 degrees with a wind chill of 1 degree. For some reason, this is even more biting cold than last week when the WC was in the negative digits.

I am ready to jump off the nearest bridge.

I long to be able to stand outside long enough to get a few deep breaths of fresh air without risking frostbite.

I am tired of wearing all of these heavy clothes!!

I am tired of spending five minutes before each departure putting on coat, scarf, earmuffs, mittens, boots

..and of spending an additional five minutes taking it all off once you reach your destination.

I want to eat ice cream - outside.

I want to wear flip flops.

I want to feel the warmth of the sun on my face.

I want my back to ache from planting flowers instead of shoveling snow.....

Okay, is everyone ready to kill the person that asked how everything was in my neck of the woods!! :wink:

[Vonn07]

it's 2 degrees ABOVE zero ... now at 12:34am ...
feels like 14 BELOW ...

high for wednesday - not any warmer ..

but MUCH MUCH COLDER ..


BBBRRRRRR!!!

[Koala77]

Did you ask my DH if he wanted a 'bunkie'???? ;):D:D


Bed will also available for Carolina's DH when refurbishment finished! ... :D

oops....and Carolina...of course!! :)

[PolarExpress]

Air temp's 4 below here right now..Don't know (don't wanna know) what the wind chill is. Can it be Spring now, pleeeeeze?

[Niko]

BBBRRRRRR!!!



As my son says as he steps outside to check the weather...

Welcome to the BRRR Club :)

[Kitty]

It is supposed to be 65 degrees here today - I doubt it will get that high. They are always so optimistic with the high temps....

I want to move to the Pacific Northwest. I need to be in a climate where it stays colder longer than it stays warm. The heat kills me. I'd love to move to Alaska. Now, before everyone who actually lives in Alaska asks me if I am crazy, I prefer the cold weather. I prefer cloudy, cold weather to sunny, hot weather. I've always been like this - it's just with adding MS to the mix I am even more like this than I ever was before!

I love the snow, rain, wind and cold! A few sunny days thrown in are fine - but you can keep the heat.

Well, except for the rain defecit... ditto what Moose said, including moving NW someday, hopefully next summer.

We're (GA) still way behind on rainfall and we added another rain barrel to our collection this weekend, just in time for some major storms to go by.

36 tornados in the South Sunday evening...going to be a wild one this year. :eek:

[SallyC]

Did I say we were expecting a bit of snow this morning? Make that four, @#$%, inches and still snowing..:eek:

WILL WINTER EVER END?????

IS warmer in Alaska than Ohio.

:Thank you:


I knew it. I just knew it.

Sure it will. We get 5 days off for good behavior in July.

[FinLady]

Right now - snow, snow, and more snow. been snowing all morning. Can't believe it was in the 60s on Sunday.

[CrystalSword]

It should be in the mid 60's this week, yesterday was in the 70's partly cloudy and we had the front door open till dinnertime when the temps started to drop. We're expecting rain the next three days, its very overcast right now.

I'd like to go to Petsmart and get the furkids groomed, toenails at the very least, they are getting so long, and they both think my legs are scratching posts (maybe I should get them one).

DH is napping again, I really hate to disturb him to go into town, but he hates staying home alone....and he is just getting over a bad case of bronchitis.

Got my yard work done yesterday, yard hasn't looked this good in almost a year!

Hey Kelly... I'm with YOU ... I can't handle the heat ... not sure how to deal with this next summer - last summer I was a basket-case .. but even the cold is refreshing for me .. even my 'burning' sensation is minimal!

all I need is central air .. and I'm not an a/c person - I love fresh air .. .so, how are we going to make this work???

[sugarboo]

It's been like 'Break-Up' around here for the last few days. All the snow is melting! I just came in from outside where the streets are flooding, took a shovel and removed the big ice patches from the drive-way and the sun is shining bright and can actually feel the warmth.

This weather is coming YOUR way!! Glad I have good news for a change!

Back to the books....

I don't know about that. The weather man is saying tonight we are
going to get some snow that will continue into tomorrow. Then it will turn
into freezing rain. Rather have the snow then the freezing rain.

Can't wait for the spring weather. This winter has really gotten to
me both physically and emotionally. :(

Glad it is changing your way. Maybe that is a hint of things to come.

Jappy :)

[sugarboo]

Yes Joyce...You have the weather I had last week...cold and snowing, but the winds were behind that and it got warm and started melting on Monday.

So next week, you'll have the spring weather. It usually takes anywhere from 7-10 days to make it your way :) So far, we've had four days in a row of good weather (well, it's in the 30-45 mark...very warm for us this time of year)

We still have several months of winter to go.

About 5 years ago, we ended up with 5 feet overnight, on St. Patties day...MARCH! Talk about a real downer that was!

Hang in there!

[AfterMyNap]

LOL, I have no idea how my own weather is and I don't want to know. I'm enjoying someone else's 65/partly sunny day and working on ways to make this my permanent residence.

[ewizabeth]

Bad winter here in N. Illinois! But tomorrow is supposed to be high in the 30's! :)

The thing about the weather here is, spring could come the first week of March. :confused: Then another month of winter through April.

I think I'd like it where you are too AMN!

[SandyC]

Is there anywhere in this world we can live that is 60-70 degrees all year?

[AfterMyNap]

Is there anywhere in this world we can live that is 60-70 degrees all year?

Um, duh, inside your house?:p

[AZjanie]

Oh yeah; I would like to hibernate in the Winter as I am not a cold weather person.


I was going to come back as a bear in my next life so I could lie around, not worry about my weight and hibernate through the Winter. Sounded good to me and then...

I learned how they prepare for a long sleep and didn't sound good at all! :eek:

[Foggy Brain]

It has been raining ICE here in MO since late last night! Crazy . . .

[SandyC]

Um, duh, inside your house?:p


:Funny-Post: Girl, you so funny! :Funny-Post:

[weegot5kiz]

next week its suppose to reach in the thirties one day its gonna get over 35, of course the next day the high is expected to be an amazing 19,:eek: should of bought stock in cold meds this year



peace

[MSCherokee]

Ditto what Sally said. It started snowing here around 5 p.m. and is still snowing. :mad: Can't wait to get the freezing rain/ice/snow mix they're predicting overnight. Just what I like to wake up to in the morning - not. This Ohio weather sure do sucketh this year!

[PolarExpress]

This is the coldest winter we've had in a looong time. I'm so bleepin' tired of being cold!..There is a warmup coming, should be mid-20's tomorrow & 30's on Saturday (t-shirt weather!:D)..It was clear and cold last night, which made for a very good viewing of the lunar eclipse. And, I could watch it through my living room window..Inside..Where it was 70..

[weegot5kiz]

this is how winters always were when i was younger, the last few years we have been lucky

[AZjanie]

DS in Ohio called earlier and said they are supposed to get freezing rain tonight so will be really icy in the morning.

He works 30 miles from home on the night shift so may be a long scary drive home. So I know my DIL will be very worried till he gets home as well as Dad and I of course.
:eek:

The Granddaughters are thrilled as there will probably be no school tomorrow!
:D

[Becky21]

Freezing rain right now with wind chill factor in the teens. We have such high winds in Oklahoma that it is so hard to endure the cold. It's been an ugly, dreary day. I'm always under my blanket.

It's supposed to be 60 on Sunday and 70 on Monday. It's Winter one day and Spring the next.:confused:

[Carolina]

LOL, I have no idea how my own weather is and I don't want to know. I'm enjoying someone else's 65/partly sunny day and working on ways to make this my permanent residence.

Have you changed coasts?

[Kitty]

You can send your freezing temps and snow to me!! I love that kind of weather. Seriously, I need to live in the north (or Alaska). My son wants to go, too. He likes cold weather like I do.

AMN - want to switch residences? You like warm weather, I like cold. We're just both in the wrong areas! :p

[FinLady]

Almost all the schools are closed today in my area. I'm guessing it's due to the icy conditions this morning. Drive to work will be fun. :rolleyes: Glad I grew up in central NY.

[weegot5kiz]

be careful fin and get home safe

[Jappy]

Yep, were expecting the same, southwest of Ya, Jappy.:eek: Winter Storm warnings are up for us...Wheeeeeee..:mad:


We got 4 inches of snow this morning. That's the first snow that my
neighbor came over and used his snow blower this winter. I guess I shouldn't
complain after hearing and reading how some of you have had it bad all
winter with every kind of weather there is.

I am lucky to have this young couple that now take care of the
grounds for me even in the summer he mows the yard.

What is really funny is when I was sixteen I used to watch
her father when the parents went out. A small world you never know what
may happen.

This is Sage's first snow and she is having a ball running around. :D

[SallyC]

Ah yes we got the ice on top of the snow and all the schools within a 20 mile radius are closed here in the Dayton area.

I like winter best too, but I woke up today verrry stiff. Enough of the cold, already.

You people in GA, CA, Texas, Beleze and other points south.....Kiss my grits..:p:D

we bragged too much. :o it's only 36.

Here is your kiss, Sally. It's supposed to go up to 67 today. There is cloud coverage. Yesterday was so nice. The sun was out. I opened all my windows. It was beautiful.:p LOL.

Now, come summer it will be a whole different story. The sweltering heat of 100+ degrees and the hot blazing sun with no trees to shade you will be cause for many "complaints" from me.

[Niko]

We're in the midst of receiving a foot of snow. After snow we'll get about an inch of sleet.

For decoration, I guess :rolleyes:

I'm hoping Spring will be here shortly.... :wink:

Stay warm.
Stay dry.

Cheers!
