YOU WANT I SHOULD KICK SOME BALMY THERMOMETER ASS, SKITTLES?

Right on!

it will be 25 degree low by tomorrow which still sounds OK compared to CO, but alas, with rain and finding a unicorn easier than finding a sander, I predict some real angst in these parts really soon

Oh crap... Now I've done it.

I'll give you a pass

"STOP SCREAMING OR I'LL STOP" most commonly hollered at WillyT

Amazingly, I76 was in much better shape.

It's 22 after being down around zero for a few days. It feels like a heat wave. I think we might get some snow now since it clouded up.

Low 80's today in the Houston area - but a BIG CHANGE is on the way!

In central tx.

Expecting a high of 9 tomorrow (not sure what the wind chill will be).

20 degrees (F, not C) was considered a heat wave

plus brutal wind chills, that 20 above has felt warm (and isnt' that sad?).

It's also when the ERs start seeing frostbite cases. We all know how to dress when it's really cold but when it "warms" to 20 it feels so good we get careless about gloves and hats.

An island which he christened "Moosylvania". So he must have been familiar with Minnesota winters

only natural that Jay Ward would have property here.

Sadly, our moose population is declining at a frightening speed. Depsite our recent cold snap, one of the suspected culprits are the warmer, slightly shorter winters as well as somewhat warmer summers. I believe one theory is that the parasites moose pick up in the summer aren't dying off in the winter like they used to and are killing Bullwinkle's relatives.

There's always been a special place in my heart for moose ever since I saw my first Bullwinkle cartoon.

supposed to drop to 10 overnight.

It's around 55 right now. Of course this is California. Yeah, it's no fun once it's below 20. I remember those days when I lived in Kansas.

Stay warm. A nice hot toddy would be good right now for you.

in attempt to save orange crop.

cold night tonight.

can't imagine what all those single digits and negatives feel like.

Supposed to go down to 25 or so tonight. Just cold, no precipitation. This is the Napa Valley.

UNSEASONABLY The rest of the country is freezing and we are in the 60s and it will be 70s tomorrow. Not in Florida, middle latitudes in the central Atlantic states.

and they're expecting 82 as the high tomorrow. We did have a cold snap there for a day or two, it went down to like 63 or 65. My thermometer almost broke.

seriously, the left coast of sunny Florida is a bit warm right now. We'll probably have to pay for it later in the from of a hurricane or tropical storm.

our governor and legislature. the worst in teabag fame aside from Wisconsin.

It used to be a really cool state with Lawton Chiles and Bob Graham as gov, and one time we even had a Democratic Legislature.

All that is gone now.

Take care

As the cold front heads into the southern states, you know we'll end up with another Christmastime tornado outbreak. Lately, that seems to be the norm. It just won't get cold enough down here in the fall and winter to stop those, unfortunately.

At least the TOR:CON is not 4 or above for anyone in the next few days anyhow:
http://www.weather.com/news/tornado-torcon-index

When it starts pushing toward 3, though, there will most likely be some tornadoes somewhere. Let's just hope they won't be strong enough to do any damage or hurt anyone.

Yea, I hate the cold too.

Supposed to get down to -2 tonight. High tomorrow of 11.

But looks like the temp is going to dip down into mid 30-40's Friday.

Just before 7, we had a thunderstorm. By Friday, it will be in the mid 20's.

Had hard frost until after 10 AM this morning. Supposed to dip to 20 F or so tonight.

Yesterday it got into the 70's, so naturally, it's going to be roughly 17degrees tomorrow with snow flurries and wind.

Good old West Texas.

Was warmer yesterday. Got above freezing. Made the dirt road I live on very slippery. Took delivery of a new fridge today. Delivery truck got in okay. Road was slushy. It's going to get pretty cold again starting tomorrow.

This is going to be a tough winter, I suspect. There's been snow on the ground for two weeks already, unusual for normally moderate Michigan. We get lots of snow, but not usually until later. January is usually bitterly cold here with many consecutive days below zero Fahrenheit. That's when one keeps the hot chocolate and brandy handy, served together of course.

I love winter! It's 28 here in Kansas City and I hope for a lot of snow this winter. I'm miserable in the summer and would love to retire to the Northeast.

And I hate, hate, hate summer. I am in the Atlanta, GA, area, and for the past month, we have had some fairly cold temps. It has been in the 20s and 30s at night and the 40s in the day. But I am not complaining. I lived in Miami, FL, most of my life until I moved here to North Georgia and found there are four seasons instead of just constant summer.

But unfortunately, we do not get much snow. The last big snow was a blizzard in 1993. Other than that, what snow we do have does not accumulate for very long, except in the mountain areas.

Temps are supposed to really start dropping later on tonight, though; we won't get out of the 30s tomorrow and on Fri. we're liable to get a pretty good slurry of a wintry mix. Hopefully we don't have any long-lasting power outages, though.

supposed to drop down to about 10 tonight

Lovely breeze

Two days ago it was in the upper 50s (about 60 near my house and wasps were flying).

Welcome to western Nebraska. brrrrr

and falling. Brrrr!

Northern Western Washingtonians are freezing their butts off tonight.

You must be close to me?

up here sitting in the shadow of Mt. Baker.

It's 20 degrees here right now, too.

and lower throughout the night

predicted to be about -16F... which means it's going to be -20F or more like last night. They're usually off by anywhere from 6-15 degrees.

They're always off on the prediction where I live. It's supposed to be -13F tonight but I'm sure it'll be closer to -20F or worse. It's supposedly +6F here right now but my thermometer is at zero and it feels like -6F.

I'm in central Utah. Where are you?

TYY

the divide between ID and MT on the MT side at about 7K ft. It gets downright inclement around here sometimes. But I've got plenty of wood in here for the stove so all's good. There was a big power failure in eastern Idaho for most of the day and into part of MT. Didn't bother me 'cuz I have wood heat, no internet for half the day but oh, well... I can heat food and water on the stove so I guess I was in better shape than most since it only got up to about +3F today. Glad my fridge is well sealed, but I could have put stuff out in the outside locker (bear-safe) if it lasted a long time, though.

Stay warm!

Tonight's sunset over the Space Needle and the city and lake was so lovely I ran back in and dragged my colleague out to gasp with me. Big crescent moon, Venus bright, and COLD as a mofo! In the 20s-30s.

down to 17F here at the house north of ATL... if not the record it was mighty close...

sP

Mostly lower 80s this week but it's going to be a chilly lower 70s next week

The natives will break out their sweaters next week.

Damn early for this cold.

I suppose with double socks and longjohns and earmuffs and scarves and gloves we here in the South might muddle through, but many people are still worrying about frostbite

...Chesapeake right now.

Supposed to be 85F and sunny tomorrow.

Florida might be full of zombie face eating racist weirdos, but it does have a few good points on occasion.

and headed lower.

Greeley CO

Shivering, not scared--->> It's fucking cold!

TYY

Headed for a low of 18 tonight.

Maybe snow overnight Friday into Saturday.

That will change in the morning.

We are expecting SLEET! OMG! For Austin we are beside ourselves!

48 degrees, humidity 77% winds 2 mph



62 this week i think. just the calm before the storm

Billings Montana area. I do not like this shit at all. This could go on for months in this part of the country. You don't like the heat down south, I run a furnace or wood stove about 8 months a year.

My nephew lives there. He left sunny CA a couple of days ago. Surprise!

It can stay below zero all week there, day and night.

60 right now.

6" to 8" of snow tonight through tomorrow night...central New Mexico

I miss winter. I was born in Colorado, we have snowboards in our attic

To mine personal details from DU members!!1

Fortunately the humidity has been dropping all month. Sorry! You can have your revenge next monsoon...

Which is pretty cool for this neck of the woods.

I guess my epic mushroom season is probably finished

That's -35C and -45C with the windchill. I'm frozen. This is super cold even for here. brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Thank goodness for hot tea and heating pads.

not much wind right now, thank gods. i lost feeling in my fingers on the five minute drive home from work.

Will get down in the low 30s tonight, upper 60s tomorrow.

I live near Pittsburgh; right now (almost 1 AM Eastern time) it is 56 degrees F. But Friday we expect snow, and then cold.

The rest of December is predicted to warm up slightly and average in the 30s and 40s, but January in Pittsburgh this year is predicted to be much below normal. I remain underemployed and I am terrified because of this. Although I do have a grant for some heating oil, with heating oil running near four dollars per gallon I only was able to get about 300 gallons. In a normal winter, with rooms closed off and heat set at 66 to 68, I need at least 400. If the winter turns really cold I will need 600 or so gallons. I have no funds to buy that much oil. And I cannot apply for another grant from this same source until next winter.

So in the meantime I have been keeping the heat at 62 to 64, but I have a low normal body temperature (my normal temperature is about 96.6.) Several times already I have had hypothermic episodes where my temp went down as low as 93.2 and I had a hard time bringing it back up, even under several blankets. I am seriously scared that I am going to become a statistic this winter when the oil runs out.

Please everyone, hope the forecast warms up at least a little and verifies warmer than what they are saying now!

Forecast -15 by sunrise and a hi of zero tomorrow! It's ski weather!

73 tomorrow...

Upper 20s to about 35 at night.

Just barely above the threshold where all the water pipes to the businesses which close during the wee hours can burst -- at least most of them. Some older buildings may have issues if it gets down to 27 or so outside.

But I like this sort of weather so much I would gladly take it for 8 months out of the year, rather than just 2 or 3.

since we're still above 30 but we're supposed to get snow later tonight.

We need it. An inch or two in the valley might mean a foot on the peaks.

very unusual in WA.... Cold front till Tues then back to rain..................

in Kansas City... with snow moving in....

Is there a cold front coming through? Guess I'll have to look at the weather. Tomorrow

(It's 73F at 1:36 am Friday in Houston.)

In North Texas. Driving to work this afternoon it was "current temperature is 80 degrees, up next we will talk about the winter weather advisory that starts tonight".

Sleet/ice supposed to start tomorrow, wind chills to be in the teens thru Saturday

We had fog all day yesterday and today is forecast to be much the same.

Oral is still 98.6

Gonna have to turn on the AC.......

It'll get close to 70 today.

Today's expected high: 25

Saturday's expected low: -7.

I'm just about to go out and run the snowblower to clear the driveway. It didn't stop snowing until after dark yesterday.

Bundling up, I am.

yikes

8:19pm 34 degrees.....lol

Watch out for ice, spanone!

Yikes!!

I wish it was cold here.

We may have a lot of crazies, but the weather makes it worth it

But by Tuesday, it will be a high of 49 and a low of 39 in the morning. I am not complaining because I love cold weather. It is too warm right now.
