Weather in your area?

Yes, I have a shelter down the hall. 3 walls are cinderblock poured with concrete, it's ceiling is 2x10's. I'm safe here. But a great many homes don't have storm shelters, especially older homes, subdivisions, mobile homes... a target rich environment.

Here is bama the feds came to rural communities and built "community shelters" about 2010. They hold 20 people or so, the only shelter many people have.

For peace of mind alone I highly recommend you build one, lots of plans on how it can be done for less than $2K.

I was quite surprised how many place didn’t have anything. Seems like that would be a priority. I’ve been researching shelters but am still young in the learning of them. But that will be top priority when we find a place.
Very glad you have a safe space. I worry about your safety

That's the price we pay here in the south for our warm winter weather.
On topic: Current temp for us: 79.5°F, even with no sun. Nice!
Mobile home parks just seem to be a magnet for the 'spinny-things'.
Those folks need a hole to crawl in!
Edit: P.S. it's also a fallout shelter.

Rained all night and most of the day. Don't know about temperature. I didn't go outside.

 

[phideaux]

Rain, rain and more rain... temp up to 64 now, bad thing... More potential for one of those twisty spinny things.

Rained all day. Should be outta here soon. Then temps are dropping, low 20's in the morning

 

[Cabin Fever]

Minus 39º wind chill

 

[WVDragonlady]

Right now low 40's and cloudy.
Friday low 40's partly sunny
Saturday mid 20's and sunny
Sunday low 30's sunny then cloudy then SNOW
Right now "they" are saying we could be in a bull's eye 8-12 inches
But they're not sure, so they're gonna keep watching it (then why say it at all)

I shop on friday mornings anyway, so hopefully I can get all that I need tomorrow morning
Once thats done then I don't have to go anywhere for days. Neither does the hubby.
He might plow the lane but then again he might not
Somebody else needs to step up and get it done

In SW PA we will be getting similar. I haven't heard any numbers only "heavy snow".

50s

 

[Pearl]

79° today!!! One more day, the bottom falls out Saturday. High in the 30's Gusty winds and a hard freeze that night.

 

[Peanut]

Low 60's here, warmer tomorrow.

 

[WVDragonlady]

Now they're saying 5-11 inches, 1/4 inch of ice and 40mph winds

It'll change today some time and then it'll change again tomorrow morning and so on and so on and so on........

Its so silly. I mean everything shuts down when it snows only 1 inch so adding more is nothing. It'll just take a little longer to shovel out

The hype is so dumb. And getting people into a frenzy is irresponsible IMO

 

[Bacpacker]

High 40s today

 

[Patchouli]

75, sunny, there was a wind advisory but nothing on that yet.

 

[Morgan101]

It was relatively mild today; temps in the 40's and sunny. We are under a Winter Weather advisory and expected to get 3"-5" between tonight and tomorrow. We don't have any plans, so I really don't care. Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow. I have gotten much more cavalier and accepting when I don't have to drive in it or shovel the driveway.

75, sunny, there was a wind advisory but nothing on that yet.

9pm tonight until 6pm Saturday. Gusts behind the cold front up to 55 mph, staying in the 30"s tomorrow!

 

[Patchouli]

Thank you Princess @Pearl
No snow for us. Overcast now, still in the 70s

You ain't sendin' that crap to us, areya'?
We've had beautiful weather the past week.

 

[havasu]

74 today. I had to get my sprinklers working again.

Cold front is coming through right now! Yep, coming your way!! I can't help but share!

What? Why the not so happy reaction??

The reaction wasn't aimed at you but the weather.
Yeah, we gotta wrap plants tomorrow.
My joints were telling me this morning to check the forecast.
They are almost never wrong.

 

[LadyLocust]

Freezing Fog.

I may have special ordered it for you

 

[Supervisor42]

I may have special ordered it for you

Thank you so much! You shouldn't have!
If I could just take my arms off for 2 days, I'd be just fine
On topic: We are definitely going to get the winds too.

 

[UrbanHunter]

Today, it got into the mid 30s, tomorrow the high will be in the low 20s with incoming weather...

 

[Amish Heart]

Sounds like our weather is like yours, Pearl.
Weather twins.

 

[Bacpacker]

We hit 56 today. 44 tomorrow and some winds. Expecting rain changing to snow sunday

 

[Mountain trapper]
