2021 - How's the Weather Where You Are

c-c-c-c-c-COLD! Brrrrrrr!

St Paul, MN has been under severe weather alerts for the past 2 weeks due to Arctic temperatures and strong winds. When I saw the weather forecast 3 weeks ago, I went shopping twice in one week, stocked up on foods, and have hibernated all this time. The weatherman says things should change by Saturday. Meanwhile, I'm staying home warm and toasty ...
 
A nice cool one.

Today 21°C
Tonight 13°C
Now 17.7°C

Cloudy. Medium chance of showers in the E, most likely during the morning and afternoon. Near zero chance of rain elsewhere. Winds SE 15 to 25 km/h turning E in the middle of the day. Daytime maximum temperatures 20 to 26.
 
This snow has finally ended in central Missouri....it looks like we got about 7 inches. The temperatures tonight are expected to set a new record for this date at -8F. Our electric company set out an e-mail earlier today asking people to minimize their electric usage...no laundry, etc., for the next couple of days....as the electrical grid is being taxed to its limits all over the Midwest, and if it gets worse, they may have to start some selective brownouts. Millions are already without power due to ice buildup on trees and power lines, and it may be 2 or 3 days before power is restored to most....just in time for the next storm to hit....sometime Wednesday here.
 
So incredibly sorry to those in some of your states, having such horrible weather, out of the normal.
Hope you can recover through all this........freezing cold temps, ice, snow, wind, all of which is not characteristic, for you.
Being in Canada.......we're trained and are used to this......
Keep warm and safe .

Snow on the beach in Galveston, TX after a historic storm that has millions without power or heat.​

Speaking of historic storms, Galveston is the site of the deadliest natural disaster in U.S. history: the hurricane of 1900.

Yep, folks are going there to see the snow beach. This weekend will be in the 70's and we will be in tees and shorts.
 
Still quite cool in my part of Sweden, minus 12 Celsius when I got up. Forecast is for about minus 6 Celsius midday.

I feel for the people in places like Texas who are suffering in cold weather and conditions which they are totally unprepared for. The Texas weather even made it onto Swedish TV
