How's The Weather By You?

Well, just about to whine about it being in the very low twenties (F) this morning until I see that in Montana's Butt it's -27 (F)! Okay . . . on another front... Rain predicted for tonight and thru the weekend...
 

TWH..Your weather today was like ours yesterday. Not sure what the high was, but near 70. We had to have the air conditioner on in the truck, and I had a light jacket on, but sweated my way through the stores..Right now it is raining, and the temp is dropping like a rock. It started out at 42 this morning, right now it's 38. We are supposed to have lows in the 7-20 degree range overnight through the rest of the week with about 5-6 inches of sleet and snow accumulation.

Now about that stupid Rooster. I had him coming in the coop voluntarily to roost when we had the last cold snap, but for the last three days he has decided to go back to the tree. I may have a frozen bird hanging in the tree tomorrow morning if he decides to be stubborn about coming in tonight.
 
I'm stoppin at the store on the way home from work. Just because our weather man says we won't get dumped on doesn't mean much. We have been surprised before and clouds are movin in right now. And the temps are below freezing and going to stay this way for a week or so.
 
-15 F last night, and although there was some sun today it was colder than yesterday. Around 4 degrees for our walk, tonight's supposed to be colder...no more snow falling today.
 
Bloody freezing yesterday Jilly......got to around 14c but the wind chill made it feel like about 9c.....
Around 7c last night but finally improved this arvo.....its 17c at the moment and we're going for
24 tomorrow and 29 Sunday.....our weather is really crazy for summer....:what:
 
27F this morning and the ground covered with sleet. Still coming down. Supposed to get to single digit temps tomorrow morning.But it's okay, I've got plenty of firewood and nowhere I've gotta go.

Take care! .. Thinking about all you people North of me dealing with sleet and ice .... have a cold rain coming down here, but it's in the 40's now, and is to stay in the 40's throughout the day and night.
 
We are down in the teens at night and low 30's during the day.

We have only had freezing rain/ice storms twice in my life time and it is the weirdest damn stuff, the first time a few years ago, we had no idea how bad it could be, everything just "looks" wet but in reality is a solid layer of ice covering everything, the last ice storm, when it started to warm up we just stood on our porch listening to limbs breaking all over the place and crashing to the ground, we were without power for 4 days..Good times!!!
 
For all of you having snow and sleet - snuggle in and stay warm!

Foggy here today, can hardly see the lake across the street. Temps aren't too bad - 9 C.
 
Woke up this morning to 3" of snow on the ground and still coming down hard with huge flakes. We had freezing rain starting yesterday afternoon until we went to bed, so I don't know what time it changed to snow. At this time it is 28F . Our overnight low tonight is supposed to be 3F

Like Rkunsaw, we won't be going anywhere soon, but don't care.

Braved my way out this morning to feed the cats and Buckaroo. Yesterday at roosting time Buck was hanging around the shed eyeballing the chicken coop. I put his food inside the door, and he came running and practically dove in. This morning he was crowing and indignantly cackling and wanted out.

When I opened the coop door he made a dash for it , but put the brakes on when he saw the snow up to his tail feathers...he's still in there..LOL

Rkunsaw..wondering how your shopping trip was yesterday. I can only imagine after what I had on Wednesday.

TWH..I sure hope you dodge this bullet. It's one thing to be able to sit in the house and let the world go by, but taking care of horses in this weather is rough.

Terrible,just terrible. I went to the drug store and got what was needed. I didn't really need anything from walmart but since I was in town decided to pick up a few things. I never saw the place so crowded. Are most peoples pantrys so bare they can't get through a couple of days of bad weather? Do people normally shop for groceries every day or two? I just can't understand the mad rush every time the weatherman says storm coming.

But the temps were near 40 and just raining. I was back home by 9:45. The sleet turned to snow here about 7 this morning and it's still snowing.
 
Rkunsaw...your shopping trip was sounds like mine...It's scary to think what would happen in a real disaster..hope we never have to find out! Sounds like your weather is a day behind ours.

How are those pies coming?


TG..Are your temps going to rise or are they predicting ice if it rains?

Here its 13 degrees at 7am this morning...rolled my warm, lazy butt out of bed and waded through the snow to feed the Roo and cats and wild birds, and top off the frozen water bowls..everything takes longer when it's so cold. The Gangstas did their business in record time this morning, though.

This is the current forecast for the next few days: Today's high 23...Tomorrow 28-19 low...Monday 30-8 low..not above freezing until Wednesday..BRRR

It's 19 degrees here but it's windy so feels much colder. Our dog usually has to go and patrol his yard, but not this morning, he was right back in after doing his business.
 
Hope everyone stayed safe and warm during the latest Winter blast. We had 10+ inches of snow; now is 20 degrees; gonna get a lot colder.

Just staying inside...watched Oh Brother where art thou...enjoying the music.



and George Clooney.
 
TWH..You're having a heat wave compared to us...but poor Anne, you really got blasted with snow. Okay, I won't complain anymore. Actually, I'm okay with the snow and freezing temps as long as we don't lose power. That's when you're going to hear some major b****'in!

Anne..we love that movie...maybe a good one for tonight.
