105 deg F today.... went to the park in the nearby town... and walked right around the lakes. Children were supposed to be at school today, but clearly parents had kept a lot off school..due to the high temps.. makes you wonder what makes them think that if its no safe in school.. that it's safe in the mid-day heat..

If schools aren't air conditioned, it's probably a lot cooler outside. I don't know how your schools are constructed, but masonry buildings behave like chimneys in extreme heat.

We got about an inch of heavy, wet slush overnight. Hard to shovel - it sticks to the blade. I walked over to the library this morning and it seemed mild for this time of year - it's just above freezing right now. More snow predicted for tomorrow afternoon.

It's just like that a few places right now,

but here in mid-usa it is way way way too hot to think about much.

Just 'cool'
to remember snow and ice and such ...
 
90 f right now.

Homes on Lake Erie Completely Iced Over After Blizzard

Weather like this was a major reason for retiring where this wouldn't happen.

It's already been quite a winter for areas that get lake effect snow. And it's not even the New Year. The latest system to sweep through the Great Lakes region made travel impossible and, sadly, turned deadly far too often. It's tough to appreciate the power of blizzards because they don't showcase their power immediately like other natural disasters. But the slow-moving effects are no less striking.

Here this is average for this time of year.

Wow, the icing in that link is horrific. Hope there's no floods when it melts.
 
Just looked at the link. Amazing what Mother Nature is capable of. It didn't look real at all, but like an ice sculpture of a miniature town at first.

Today started out sunny with a few clouds @ 44F. Now its 50F & overcast. Low tonight of 49F with light rain late. The 2" snow we got will be melting & should be gone by New Years with temps in the low to mid 50s with rain the next few days.
 
It snowed last night. We got about 8" where I am, just south of Denver. I'm sitting in my enclosed patio and drinking a cup of coffee as I type this, looking out the window at the winter wonderland, thinking about what a pain in the %$#@! it's going to be to shovel the sidewalk this afternoon. But at least I can appreciate it now and the fact that I don't have to go anywhere. :cool:
 
Rain today and tomorrow, then a few day break before the next storm comes, bringing rain from Saturday through Tuesday.
