Because the temp will be falling all day....down to -8°..... Makes sense to me...was shoveling some snow yesterday while it was warm (in the 30's, quiet balmy) since another storm was supposed to drop a couple more inches last night. Sun is out now and a lovely 29 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't say how many times I shovelled today, or how the windchill factor made the three outings feel very, very cold. But I feel for the other winter folks. The days are getting longer but winter is settling in to stay for quite a while. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueschica Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Raining and 50 degrees here! The warm before the storm. Front is supposed to hit about 7 am tomorrow AM and bring strong winds and temp drop of 40 degrees in an hour . . . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J2112YYZ Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 A Blizzard just started here a few hours ago. Not much snow yet but wind gusts up to 70mph and the snow is supposed to get worse as the day goes on. There's already been a travel ban in the area. Everything is closed. Even the local grocery stores are closing early today. This supposed to last for the whole weekend. Up to three feet of snow is expected for the heavier hit areas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wind has been howling and rattling houses all day here. Literally nobody has left their house in my neighborhood. Weather like this is no joke and it's not worth being outside just so a reporter can get a story. It's negative 30 out there with the wind chill. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozzy85 Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Seeing what I see here I won't bitch about 7 degrees and frozen rain. I drove the Explorer to work and it looks like it had a hose turned on it in frozen weather. Might have a silver thaw. Thank God for wood heat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold snap hasn't hit, probably not until tomorrow a.m. Bright and sunny again, but as I type this it's 46°. Broke out the space heaters, the jeans and long sleeved tops. No, this is not odd, we get 2 or 3 cold snaps a year here. But I'll bet the folks who make it down from The Great White North for vaca will be PISSED! No worries, back to shorts and t-shirts by NYE.

invisible airwave Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 First day of a high in the 70s in more than a month on Christmas Eve. So nice to go out in shorts and flip flops to eat lunch nearby for once. Also get to show my MERRY CHRISTMAS YA FILTHY ANIMAL tee in public to spread goodwill. Wore it at work yesterday since it was Christmas shirt day for employees. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J2112YYZ Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 (edited) The blizzard has passed here but there is a lot of snow still on the ground. The snow drifts have piled up over the front of everyone's porch. The snow piles in the backyards are at least four feet high and going up over the fences. Even one of my neighbors trees is leaning over the fence into my yard because the snow toppled it over. The snow is too high for either of us to go over a release the tree. It's one of those evergreen Christmas style trees so at least it's not a big wooden one. The street has two feet of snow on it. Who knows when it will be plowed? The city is using front loaders to pick up the snow. My brother told me that he heard somebody actually stoled one. How stupid is that? I'm pretty sure you need to be trained to operate one of those things. Plus, it wouldn't be too hard to track one of those down if it turned up missing. People are so f***in stupid.

pjbear05 Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Sun is out, and so am I, while fighting a nasty cold I've had since Christmas Eve. Spent half an hour sitting in the sun and hacking my chest off. BLEAH! 71° currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

workingcinderellaman Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 I feel bad for the people in California right now. But I had to share this because I've never seen this happen. The web camera that shows the snow stake at Snow Basin in the mountains just above me was buried last night. Scroll to the bottom to see the Snow Stake Timelapse and hit the play arrow at the bottom. It will show you the last 24 hours. https://www.snowbasin.com/the-mountain/web-cams/?gclid=CjwKCAiA2fmdBhBpEiwA4CcHzR-Pu3AFzarYsHs1we2D90qwcLWevYxTS0cRjn-DNTOzKoZrgvj2XBoCPzAQAvD_BwE These California storms that have been coming in are warmer so we've been getting a rain/snow mix in the valley but a TON of snow in the mountains. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
