For those in the Midwest, hang in there! Stay home if you can and, if not, do not stay outside more than a couple minutes. Frostbite will set in within 5 minutes today and tomorrow.

Kätzchen · 02-03-2019, 02:23 PM

We're in for a snow storm, late tonight. Temps will stay low all week, which makes me glad that I resisted taking off the studded snow tires early.

High (right now): 44 degrees.
Tonight's low: 24 degrees.

Low's all week: near the 20 degree mark.
High's during the week: near 33 degrees.

C0LLETTE · 02-03-2019, 03:20 PM

Studded snow tires???? We can't use those here unless we are going through the Rockies delivering transplant organs ... and even then you need the right paperwork and a team of Huskies.

JDeere · 02-03-2019, 03:26 PM

69 and cloudy right now

homoe · 02-04-2019, 11:38 AM

It's now reached a balmy 29 degrees with winds gusts but at least the snow has stopped...........

Gemme · 02-04-2019, 07:39 PM

It was in the mid-50s today. Sunshiney and bright. One more day and we're back to seasonal temps in the 30s again with some freezing rain. It's been a nice break in between everything.

With temps down in the 20's here in Eastern Washington we've only gotten about 2" of snow so far but people are saying 1-6 more by mid day tomorrow. So far I'm not seeing any signs of that, but better safe than sorry. There is a winter storm warning advisory in effect until around 10 tomorrow morning. My oldest stopped by yesterday with some easy convenience foods and today J and I made a run to the corner store today to pick up a few things. Since it was before the after work crowd rush, the snow starting to fall, no long lines or people elbowing each other out of the way to grab stuff. I try to keep enough staples on hand that I don't need to make a store run when bad weather is predicted. A trip to a corner grocery for a few fresh/luxury items to make the canned/shelf stable stuff a little less boring, work to prepare is nice but optional. I like looking outside and knowing if it's bad I don't have to go out in the cold.

Here's the thing: you can walk on snow but walking/driving on ice can be deadly; if you are older and you break a hip on the ice, it's pretty much the end of your life as you know it.

Temps well below zero are fine...just dress for it.
Temps around Zero are treacherous if the temperature is fluctuating around that mark.

homoe · 02-05-2019, 10:44 AM

Currently 23 with bright sunshine......expected high of 38 today...

JDeere · 02-06-2019, 10:54 PM

73 cloudy with humidity of 93 %

homoe · 02-07-2019, 07:59 AM

..

26 degrees right now with an expected high of 39 today with partly sunny skies.

Forecasting snow starting Friday around noon and continuing into Saturday morning!

cathexis · 02-07-2019, 12:54 PM

We are having really strange weather for way Northern NY near Canada. Rain...I can't believe it...temps to the 40s during the day then, of course, the rain freezes to ice. These people can drive through 2-3 feet of snow, but cannot do ice...not even on foot.

Anyway, where the hell did this warm front come from. It's Winter for crying out loud. It's going to melt the annual Winter Carnival Ice Palace. In fact, volunteers are making slush patches for it, and putting insulated covers on parts trying to prevent it from becoming a huge puddle.

Ice storms are what I'm used to. Grew up with gorgeous ice storms and icicles. Deep snow drifts are not really walkable at my height.

homoe · 02-08-2019, 08:39 AM

In effect until 4 p.m. Saturday! Right now no snow and 33 degrees!

Snow is to start around noon time or so they say.....

cathexis · 02-08-2019, 10:18 AM

It's hovering around freezing. Warm front coming through, from where I haven't a clue. More rain expected. The Ice Palace is in rough shape.

Warm front ~15 miles from Quebec Province?! We should be having a "Canadian clipper" system. Winter, please come back!

FireSignFemme · 02-08-2019, 02:20 PM

Well yesterday it certainly looked like we were done with snow as the weather outside matched what the forecast indicated. However today instead of staying clear as predicted it snowed all morning, only letting up about a half hour ago. It's supposed to start picking up again around 7 tonight. Now the forecast is for another 4-6” over the next few days.

charley · 02-08-2019, 02:21 PM

It is snowing here !!!

Ugh!!!

And, the cherry tree out the back is in bloom!!!

And, I was planning to go out and feast !!! And, I have no boots !!!

It did start to snow about 12:15 but other than that, the storm has not yet developed as they predicated..........

The warm front didn't make it here. We got some ice and more snow, Yeah! The Ice Palace is opening on Monday, thanks to volunteers who patched up when temps were melting it.

The longest continuous Winter Carnival has been saved. Parade today at 1300. We have front row seats from the balcony.
