So, what's the weather like where you are today?

[Charlie MV]

SQUIRRELS??? Don't get me started. We really would have let go of the top if it was that bad. But that stainless steel isn't going to take many more encounters with my head. I think the herons and egrets have sense enough to take their tops down during the day.

We have done a lot worse in storms on the coast. The bad stuff at night usually included waves breaking over the dock. It would make a preacher cuss. We figure we have about 8 more years before we're just too old for this.

We got down near 25 last night. Today the winds settled down to 20. I must confess I radioed for a dock hand when we came back in today. That would never enter my mind in the summer but from experience I can tell you that my wife turns the most exquisite shade of blue when she falls overboard in February so I had her strap on a life jacket and pitch a line to the dock boy.

It's a balmy 43 degrees and the front has passed so there isn't even a ripple out there. I think we're due for about 25 tonight and then winter will be over. I'll be swimming through great heron poop by mid April as warm as this winter has been.

right now it feels like -8..... last night it was like -27 with the wind chill.

News Flash! This just in! Breaking News! June 18, 2012, Casper, Wyoming. For the eighth straight month, Casper, Wyoming residents have not made it to 40 degrees. High daily temperatures continue to crest at 35. According to the National Weather Bureau, Casper missed out on spring and now appears to be missing out on summer as well. Fortunately, they are only three months away from fall, so soon the daily highs in the 30's will seem perfectly normal.

Back to our local anchor, Stella1751.

Guys, I am almost a broken woman. I can't remember the last time I saw 40 degrees for a high. I just checked the ten-day forecast, and we might, MIGHT, squeak up to 40 a week from now. Maybe. Not likely. This winter will never end.

You heard it here first

Feb 20é2012 in Astorville Ontario Canada

Sunny and cold, about 2 feet of snow in the yard, a hint of spring in the air Spring here is mid april

[Kisal]

Overcast, with light showers off and on. 48º at the moment. (Yesterday was sunny and gorgeous!)

[jpr54_]

Yesterday it hit record high for day-87 degrees
Today it was 10 degrees cooler an breezy
can't complain
at least it is not snowing, etc.

[Mini Mango!]

*Mostly sunny, with some white clouds scattered around, +19C.
*Extremely windy -> SAND STORM! Woo hooo, I open the door and it feels like winter in Ukraine, only not with snow but sand! Even my plants have a layer of sand!

I met a lady in the park couple of weeks ago. She said they run away from the cold in their country, traveled here for holiday. They live in Kazakhstan, it's -45C!!! Can you imagine?!
She said it's never been so cold (at least she doesn't remember).

It's cold everywhere this winter, even here in Dubai for the first time I wanted to buy a heater for the house!! Hilarious, but true....

Mardi Gras day here in New Orleans and the weather is cooperating nicely. Today's high is expected to be in the mid 70's with clear skies and lots of sunshine. It should be a great day for those that love to partake in the Mardi Gras parade mode. As for me, I've been there, done that for far more years than I care to think about and no longer get all warm and fuzzy feeling about it.

The wife and I will likely just hop on the motorcycle and head far away from the maddening crowds to get a little 2 wheel therapy today.

Snow . . . but not much. There was snow 2 days ago, this shouldn't last long either. It is already above freezing.

Above freezing with little wind and snow on the ground - 1/4 mile visibility at the nearest airport!

After an atypical January, we are in a typical February. Snow, fog, anything that isn't tied-down, and the month will all blow away soon . . .

I resurrected this thread because I just looked at our forecast....jeeezz 74 for today and 77 Wed 78 Thursday. That will be above the record high for the date on Wed... That's a record that was set back in the dust bowl days in 1933 and has stood ever since.


I'm getting braced for a long hot summer!

[lorax]

Send some south, RBG! We never really got our summer - right now it should be clear skies, blazing sun, and 45 C highs.

Yeah, no. It's cloudy, misty, and cold. My thermometer reads 12 C right now, which is all wrong. I'm going to go crawl into the greenhouse now.

It was drizzling here early morning but now sun is out
temperature will be in '70's this afternoon

[DoubleDogFarm]

SNOW, I'm really getting tired of this stuff. Snow in March the last several years.

I traditional plant my first potatoes on St Pattys Day. Looks to wet this year. If this is the norm? Time to think better drainage.
