2021 - How's the Weather Where You Are

[Packerjohn]

I live in the middle of Canada. Right now our forecast says,
"Bitterly cold temperatures through the remainder of the year.

A bitterly cold Arctic air mass entrenched over the Prairies is bringing temperatures over 10 degrees Celsius below seasonal averages to southern Manitoba.

Overnight lows dipping into the -30s will also combine with light winds to produce wind chills of -40 or lower at times across the region. Very cold highs will result in wind chill values near or lower than -30 in many places during the day, making frost bite in minutes a persistent hazard."

So, if you want to visit now, I strongly suggest that you bring along a good pair of longjohns (underwear for the locals). Is it any wonder that Canadians love going to Cuba, Mexico, Costa Rica or any other warm place than the middle of Canada in the middle of winter?

On SSon went to LA to escape. It’s rainy and cold.

We’ve had a very long stretch of below normal. It’s hovering around -28 C (-18F) and add in a nasty wind chill. We haven’t gone for a walk in days. When I took the short walk to the mailbox, I started coughing, so there won’t be a walk attempted today.

The only good thing about this weather is that everything else should feel warm in comparison.

Absolutely torrential rain here now after a dry morning.. mid afternoon now.. it's so heavy I've had to turn my music up to hear it over the nois rain... this is going to make all the existing floods in the local area over the last week so much worse.

 

[Geezer Garage]

Sunny and 81 here in PR. Mike

 

[Paco Dennis]

8 degrees and some snow. Beautiful ice on the trees with a bright sun.

 

[Irwin]

It's frickin' freezing, and my heater is acting up as it tends to do when it's bitter cold. There's some kind of sensor that needs to be cleaned or something.

 

[JaniceM]

5+ inches of snow last night.
It was 8 below zero when I first checked in this morning, is now -2.
News site also says between -25 and -35 windchills.

 

[Don M.]

Same as Paco. When I got up this morning, the outdoor thermometer showed 3 degrees, and we had an inch of light snow. I was able to clear the decks, etc., with my small electric blower, and I spent a few minutes getting the outdoor wood furnace going nicely. If the long range forecasts are correct, Jan and Feb will be a lot of "stay indoors" weather.

 

[Tish]

Mostly sunny

16 °C - 30 °C

 

[PamfromTx]

We had a strange weather drop from 80sF to 40s ... overnight. No wonder I couldn't get comfortable during the night ~ I was cold. Blankets are still stored and need to be taken out of their plastic tub and washed.

 

[PamfromTx]

I could not survive in extreme cold temps like most of you. I am too cold natured due to my thyroid. I'd freeze living anywhere else. Although, Texas had a 'brutal' Winter... last year. I wonder what is in store for us ~ this year?!?

 

[moviequeen1]

A bit on the 'nippy' side here in Buffalo&WNY, sunny temps in the 20's, tomorrow a bit of warm up in the 30's

 

[PamfromTx]

I gave in and turned on the central heat.

 

[Sliverfox]

Gales and hail today with temps around freezing. Forecast much better for tomorrow.

 

[hollydolly]

Heavy rain again...*sigh*.... snow forecast in the next hour....

 

[oldpop]

Yesterday the high was 73 °F. It is 36 °F at the moment. The high today is supposed to be 50 °F. I love it.
