Cold, but at least we don't have the high winds that we had Tuesday. That was an awful day. It is a balmy 29 degrees here now.

Oh gads, that's what bites right through the bones hey Buttlerfly, no wind here thank goodness, but just a mile or two away North Bend OR blows almost constantly, burrrrrrrr!
 

After a freezing cold week with snow on the ground its now cleared, last night i hardly got any sleep for it blowing all the leaves round and round on the Patio , it sounded like a mice scurrying about .

thanks Oakapple, I got to see all the fireworks in London, then I got a copy of them with music. Did you see that one?? If not, here'tis!!

Nevermind, whoever filmed it made it private so we can't view it now. I new I should have downloaded it when I first found it, they get stingy:(
 
42c in South Australia yesterday, another nasty one today hoping for a cool change as we have nasty fires threating lives and homes in the hills, it's 200 km from us but we will get smoke here in a few days from the fires
 
It's 24 degrees F here now. Last night we got around three more inches of snow on top of the several inches we already had on the ground. Today was sunny and warmer though, around 30 degrees, so the sun melted some of it. It's pretty deep in areas in my back yard, I wear old moon boots to pick up after the dog (if I can find it), and the snow was going over the top of the boots into my socks, around 8 inches in the drifted areas.

They say tomorrow winds will kick up in the afternoon, and we'll get several more inches. Using a lot of windshield washer fluid when driving around town, lots of slushy kickback from trucks, etc. :hair:
 
We're getting a little cold drizzle...will probably continue through tomorrow...then some light snow Sat. Night. After that, the cold settles in, and next week looks like another bitterly cold spell coming in. This is about the time of year I start wishing we would get a little Global Warming.
 
Shut your mouth Don. We've got too much global warming happening ATM

We had 44 deg celsius 112 Farenhiet yesterday when the fires started, and got to 40 here before the cool change 30 deg today with just a light teasing of a few drops of rain.
 
OMG Nan...wow soooo hot where you are...

It's 7 degrees c here..(44ish F)...pouring with rain..

DW that's a scary photo. My daughter lives in the mountains in Southern Spain and they had exactly the same thing happen last year..it was huge, and my son-in-law spent 3 days and nights working on the mountain alongside the firefighters trying to rescue the domestic animals that had been left tied up outside their homes while their owners fled the blaze..
 
Yeah, I imagine the Oct. thru March months in Australia present extreme fire hazards....kind of like the Summer months do here in our desert SW and the Rocky Mountains. Any drought conditions, coupled with a lightning storm, can quickly start a fire that burns thousands of acres of forestland. I've seen some reports, lately, about some pretty big fires in Australia, and hopefully they will not get into any populated areas. Some of the fires in Southern California, in recent years, have destroyed a lot of peoples houses. Dry vegetation, and evergreen forests can quickly become a firestorm when rainfall is lacking.
 
Same as yesterday here, sunny and cold.
Tomorrow is forecast to start with early morning snow, changing to freezing rain and then rain.
That will be a good day to stay home and off the highways.
 
Cool and drizzly here but we don't have to shovel it:) The damp and cool weather is supposed to last through Tuesday, and by midweek our high temps during the day will be in the low- to mid-30s with sunshine. After last winter's sNOw and ice, I'll take cold and sunny. If we're lucky, we won't get a repeat of last winter's nastiness.
 
Big snowstorm coming down right now, expecting freezing rain later - so we're snug inside holing up with netflix and munchies.
 
We've got a big cold front coming through today, and tomorrow, with an even colder one due here on Wednesday. We should be in the teens for the next couple of days, and may even drop below zero on Wednesday and Thursday. This cold Arctic air may give us the coldest week of the year. We always seem to get at least one miserably cold week sometime in Jan/Feb. Hopefully, this will be it, and more moderate temperatures will return. However, what we consider cold in this part of the country is nothing compared to what our Canadian friends are used to.
 
38c in South Australia today, forcast for 40c tomorrow firefighters are worried about the winds forcast for tomorrow because of the fires in the Adelaide hills
I dislike really hot dry weather
 
Sunny and crisp - we're at about -10 C today, pretty chilly but not as cold as you have it Steve. Hope this cold spell doesn't last long.
 
Past couple of days have been a little too warm, I'm little afraid of what this summer's temps might be like if it's this hot now. we're supposed to get a chill in the air soon, but they've been saying that for the past two weeks. Though for the most part, I rather have these warm temps than the freezing temps experienced elsewhere. But Sat I couldn't wait to get back inside to my air-condition environment.

I just went and checked the temp, it has cooled down, now around 74 says it feels like 68 and tonight will drop to 58. :) Well that's good news even if I'll be spending the entire day indoors trying to shake what ails me.
 
We are on a roller coaster down here in Texas!! Our normal for this time of year is around 56..(temps are in Fahrenheit)
