Weather in your area?

Staying between 45 - 50 degrees most days. An abundance of rain now that we're dealing with those 2 bomb cyclones and atmospheric rivers happening here on the west coast. That's been exciting.

Looks like both the west and east coasts are getting their fair share of precipitation now.

Well, so far, we've not had anything worse than a study rain, but when I saw the weather coming out of the Aleutians that formed this cyclone bomb I think back to 1949-50 blizzard which took place from Washington to the Northwest states, that was wild and then in the early 1960's, when I was stationed at Mc Cord AFB in Tacoma, Washington, there was the Columbus Day wind storm, winds strong enough to strip paint off of a canopy on the back of the pickup we were using to pick up ground support equipment from around the C-124 Globemaster cargo planes and they were all running their engines facing the prevailing wind, I'm pretty sure those two storms also started in the Aleutians as well. I will say this, this is the most rain we've had for many years as we've been in a long drought period, the first day of this storm also brought our first snow, but as of yesterday the snow at our elevation melted away, still some in the higher elevations.

That Columbus day storm knocked down some old barns in western Washington My dad and older brothers were going deer hunting crossing over from the east side of Washington and were amazed with all the trees and buildings blown down.

We actually had somewhat of a ice storm here in montana. Very dependant on elevation. Rain lower in the valley then a couple hundred feet higher where we are and a sheet of ice.....
Give me some basic snow and cold....much easier to deal with.

Since I can find something good about anything, I hate cold weather, but...
As temps have dropped, I actually found something good ...
When I bring beer in from the trailer to stock the fridge, it isn't 'hot', or even warm!

57° going to 80-85°!

 

[sonya123]

snow is gone but it is much colder than average here, as usual. Every winter they tell us it will be a "warm" winter, but then it isn't. We pretty much have the wood stove on from now until at least April every day

 

[teeceetx]

61* now, high of 78*.

[Mountain trapper]

Snowing.

Therm said 57, it wasn't. It was 50 and the windchill was 44. Overcast. Now it is in the 40s (47), feels like 33. People want me to move north where it has snowed a few times already. I am freezing. I might prefer hot. No snowbirds here, eh?

It is a hard adjustment, @Pearl girl, when it was in the 80s yesterday and so chchchilly today. I need sweaters but I sure don't like wearing all the bulky clothes either.

Most houses have heat now days, even up north.

Most animals start putting their winter coats on based on the shorter days, and not necessarily on cold temps.

Go tell Mr. Grumpy donkey, he would like a little more coat right now!

Just a Friendly Weather Warning :

"
Just in time for the official start of the holiday shopping season, a blast of cold air will expand its reach from the northern Plains through the Midwest and into much of the eastern United States late this week and this weekend, AccuWeather meteorologists say.


"The cold blast will feel like January and will deliver a significant shock to hundreds of millions of people who may have gotten used to warm conditions during much of the autumn," AccuWeather Lead Long-Range Meteorologist Paul Pastelok said.


Property owners who have not yet finished winterizing plumbing and weatherproofing may want to do so as soon as possible. Freezing temperatures will lunge deep into the Southeast, and the frigid air will be wind-driven and penetrating in the Midwest and Northeast."

Recent Forecast for the Deep South was showing Fri AM in the 30's F and Sat-Mon AM, temps in the 20's F...!!! Next Tuesday has no word yet but probably won't be much warmer...!!!

Friday morning it will be in the 20's here! Glad I'm working and not foolish enough to go stand in some line outside of a store waiting for it to open!!
