Weather at your house
1 Attachment(s)
I took this picture a couple hours ago. We have had 4 days of crap weather. Today wasn't bad just 30 mph winds. The previous 2 days was blizzard conditions with 30+ mph wind with 50+ mph gusts. Gotta love that sideways snow. Then luckily the day before that it was mostly rain and slush or we would have gotten a lot more snow.
Looks like it might be a day or 2 before we can grill and use the picnic table. It is a warm 15 out now. The next 7 days will have double digit below zero lows. Highs will vary between 9 to -10 for those 7 days. What is it like at your house? |
It was in the 40's F this morning, which is cold here, so I had to turn on the fire pit while I worked in the yard :D

Looks beautiful.
My neighbor is just wet and windy and overcast so nothing to take a picture of. |
looks like we (might) get a wintry mix down here in the South- Georgia by Friday!!!
It gonna be damn cold for sure in the teens |
I guess I need to quit whining about 35 degrees in NC.
Bless you northerners ! |
I don't have any pics, nor would I know how to post some (would like to learn how), but where I am in Central WI, it looks very similar to the above pic a couple of posts up. We are expecting more snow late in the week, up to a foot...not to mention the sub zero temps.
|
30's - 40s here, lows maybe in the 20's. Yesterday was 40, but oddly felt a bit raw like it was going to snow, but it didn't.

It's freezing here with tons of snow. Supposed to be -25F on Thursday with a heavy duty winter storm coming through.
Counting the days to when I get to move to Arizona... |
Mid 60's today and it's supposed to be 80 degrees by Christmas. Hohoho!

Thu 22 -6°/-11° Mostly Cloudy/Wind NW 25 mph Fri 23 -7°/-21° Partly Cloudy/Wind NW 24 mph I am waiting to move to the Oregon coast. Rain beats below zero every day. I wish that housing crash would hurry up and get here. Ocean front property is priced as ridiculous as cards now. |
Schools cancelled already for Wednesday wind chile expected to be as much as -50 Thursday night degrees. Burrrrrrrrrrrrr
|
In the low 50s here tonight in SE Texas. Sunshine broke through the clouds today which was nice for a change. Supposed to drop to 18/20 Thursday night into Friday, aka a 'hard' freeze. I'm hoping the corrupt azz clowns who run the Texas power grid are not lying about being able to avoid blackouts like we suffered a couple of winters back. My generator is primed and ready.

Supposed to get ugly here starting Thursday. +4c (32f) Thurs/Fri with rain transitioning to freezing rain then snow with some high winds. On Saturday they are warning about a flash freeze with temps plummeting to -5c (23f) with more snow and high winds.
Pics, supposedly, from the I-94 in North Dakota taken recently? |

Freezing rain sucks for sure, especially when we receive a fair amount of it. I don't mind the snow as I snowmobile so I'll take it even though my major riding area was hit with a bad derecho this past summer. Numerous, and I mean numerous trees are still down with some broken off way up that are unreachable. https://cottagelife.com/general/gana...may-windstorm/ |
It's going to be 9 degrees in Dallas tomorrow. Two days of less than freezing temperatures and no higher. Kind of cold for us. That means emergency weather plans for the dogs. Five get put in the garage with a heater and the other 4 will be inside. Not a super fun situation. Goes with the territory.
. |
Our weather forecast has changed once again, and will likely change another 6 times by the time it actually gets here?
Anyone know when this global warming thing is suppose to happen? I mean it's been over 34 yrs now and still nothing, or is this extreme, record breaking cold and snow in places all because of global warming like they say? :rolleyes: |
It is gonna be in the 60s today and throughout the rest of the week. Yeah, I'm freaking liking that much more than teens and snow. Overnight lows in the 30s......I can deal with this.
Cheers, Butch |

I had the generator ready just in case. Last time we didn't have power for 5 days. It really sucks to lose power in nice weather. During several days of a severe winter storm with below zero temps is way worse. Stay warm everyone.:) |

There is currently no snow amount we are supposed to get, just snow is all and no amount of rain either? :confused: Warnings all over the place like climate Armageddon is imminent. |

Just had to use 2 extension cords and a hair dryer to unfreeze the lock on my mail receptacle. Got that beautiful T206 Duffy Polar Bear out of there though. I don't think it minded the weather though, Polar Bears are pretty resilient in the cold.

In Spokane WA, we have had snow on the ground for 6 weeks, temps have not risen above freezing. I waited to long to put Christmas lights up. We got an additional 3 inches yesterday, and today temps are 10 degrees with negative temps overnight.

You’re in St. Paul we had may be five or 6 inches already on the ground and single digit temperatures. The blizzard arrive this morning added maybe three or 4 inches it’s quite windy and cold. Supposed to continue until maybe Friday with the winds picking up tomorrow.

Here is the good and bad about living in San Diego county:
Good: - the weather is great - mid 60s during the day and 40s at night. Bad: - Got this month's electric bill - 500+ |

Sounds strange but you do. Visitors from out of state will come (WI, KS, etc.) and complain about how cold it is - even when the temperature is in the mid-40s!
The rates and taxes are crazy. It's a tiered billing system. The more you use, the higher the unit rate. It starts off high and goes into the hemisphere from there. Electricity is second only to water and property taxes. If you excluded heating and air, then you could knock that baby down to around 2-3 hundred I'm guessing. |
Oh, I forgot add the price of gasoline.
The rest of the United States is mainly around 3 bucks or so and we are still at around $4.50 average. I just can't seem to figure that one out either. |

From what I hear now, it has gone from climate change to a climate crisis now!!! :eek: We are doomed I tell you. Record breaking cold around the world but some actually believe that is caused by global warming, er, I mean the climate crisis. :rolleyes: I wish someone, who wasn't so high on their horse, would try to explain that to us illiterate peon's but I'm sure it's not worth their effort if all we are going to do is laugh at what some people will actually believe today. |
I have around a foot of snow currently. Starting Thursday evening it's supposed to start snowing with windy conditions. Over the weekend the forecast is for 1-2 feet of snow, temps in the teens, and winds at 30 mph with gusts to +50 mph. It will be a good time to stoke up the fireplace and watch it snow and blow.

How about this: climate has always changed. Always has, always will. Only fools would try to stop it from changing. |
The snow is welcome here as we have had a couple years of drought. I never even had to start the snowblower last year. Not so sure about the -19 with -47 real feel now. On the bright side it is supposed to warm up to a balmy -7 today.
On a really bad note the darn wind blew my path to the grill back in with snow.:( |

Well, because that didn't work out so well for them, they've now changed it to, "Because of Global Warming/The Climate Crisis" we are now seeing record breaking cold and snow. And, instead of some people waking up, seeing/recognizing the insanity of that, they just jump onboard, without giving it a second thought, and follow right along with the "new" spun up narrative. :( This is so like covid and the vaccines where those once revered scientists and climatologists, who don't toe the line, are shamed, shunned and kicked to the curb, it's not even funny. Again, what party is pushing both? It seems, or at least it does to me, the more this one party and their funded media lies to them, the more lies they want. Little do people recognize that the more their party brainwashes them, the more votes and money it guarantees them too. It also bothers me immensely, makes me angry, what this climate crisis scam is doing to our youth. Numerous kids, and some adults, are suffering with climate anxiety and depression with some even committing suicide thinking they have nothing to live for. As Joseph Goebbels said, if you tell a lie once, no one will believe it but if you repeat it, say it over and over again, it becomes the truth. Our former environment minister, in her drunken stupor, is on video saying exactly the same thing but it's amazing how little media coverage that story received. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZyi_Sx1GpU https://www.thelancet.com/journals/l...278-3/fulltext https://www.cbc.ca/radio/thecurrent/...ment-1.6593657 https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/...y-202206132761 |
What annoys me is how otherwise intelligent people are either too lazy or too gullible to think for themselves and use just a tiny bit of common sense.
I live in Minnesota, where it routinely drops below freezing in winter and tops 100 degrees sometime during summer. That's a 100 degree change over about 6 months. Life survives. Yet, a one or two degree change spread over 100 years is supposed to be disastrous? Carbon dioxide, a naturally occurring form of carbon in a carbon-based world, is required for all plant life (trees, grass, plants, vegetables, algae, etc.) Yet it comprises just one half of one tenth of one percent of the atmosphere. That means, for every 2,500 parts in the atmosphere, only ONE is CO2. And that is supposed to be too much, to the point of trapping heat and causing calamity? People need to think just a little bit. |

Minnesota Hottest day on record is 115 F Coldest day on record -60 F 175 degree difference. South Dakota Hottest day on record is 120 F Coldest day on record -58 F 178 degree difference. Seems like we get some extremes at both places. https://www.rd.com/list/coldest-warm...n-every-state/ |

She ended up quitting do to that as she didn't like their controlling/biased/brainwashing attitude and their media coverage regarding that. Of course that vid has now been removed and is nowhere to be found so I'm thankful I was able to watch it before it was. The thing is people can't connect the dots and see that Trudeau funded them 675 million dollars of our tax payer money but they still think the CBC isn't biased/favors Trudeau and the Liberals. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/repo...ticle29354285/ Quote:

And then imagine how extremely cold it must've been, even in summer, for those glaciers to continue to grow and expand, rather than melting away. And not just for one or two years, but probably hundreds if not thousands of years or more. Now the thought of temps rising one or two degrees over the next 100 years throws some people into a panic. |

Freezing Rain
Ice is expected to blanket the entire county here and in my little town there’s no way to avoid fairly steep hills to get in/out of town.
(So I won’t) The nearby highway heading east is closed for about 50 miles due to ice/winds up to 75 mph . My driveway and road in front of my house is a hockey rink. It’s actually unsafe for people to leave their house. Driving is not advised. So far we haven’t lost power here, but due to the weight of the ice on the lines, that’s usually inevitable. I’ve got plenty of baseball cards to read… Happy Holidays to everyone! |

It is still currently raining here and is +2c out. Zero snow, zero wind, just rain. Our supposed 20-30 cm's that we were supposed to get has now been dropped to a possible 5-10. What happened to the days when they just said snow is on the way so make sure you have your snow shovels ready? Fear, fear and more fear. If I didn't know any better I'd think they were trying to recondition us, brainwash us and reprogram us? Climate crisis lockdowns are just around the corner just like covid was, you can bet on that.

Woke up to frozen water today. For some reason I have a hot water line for my kitchen sink that they run next to the foundation. A hair dryer and about 20 minutes of heating the line from the sink going backwards worked. Kinda my fault as I have thought about fixing it since we bought this house about a dozen years ago. Maybe this summer.:) I am already tired of winter. We are on about day 10 of crap weather. Started out with a few day blizzard and now double digit below zero weather with 25+ mph winds. Looking at a balmy high of -4 today with a nice 25-30 MPH breeze. Weatherman says by Tuesday we will be back to our normal high 20s temps for this time of year. That will be nice.:) |

Having spent my younger years in the creation vs evolution debate, I am generally loath to engage with science deniers. But, I would point out two things relative to your comment that "it's only 1 or 2 degrees." First, that is an average temperature over the course of a full year. To use an oversimplified example, the average summer temperature of 25C (77F) and winter temperature of 5C (41F) yields the same annual temperature as 35C (95F) and -5C (23F). To a certain degree, this example can help understand the shift in language from "global warming" to "climate change." While global warming is technically correct since global averages are increasing, the use of climate change more accurately captures that climate is getting more extreme at both ends of the spectrum. Second, the difference between average temperatures today and at the end of the last ice age is estimated to be 4-5 degrees C, which is also a small number. No big whoop, right? And to get us back on subject, it is brass monkey weather here in central Oklahoma. The horses are going stir crazy after being stalled for the last 36 hours and they have another 24 hours to go before they get turned out. https://blogger.googleusercontent.co...0/IMG_8473.jpg |
I just went out to bring in the trash cans in my bare feet.
I love living in CA. Doug |
It's in the single digits here.
The "real feel" is "feels real cold." Luckily, the snow has been light thus far; just enough to coat the lawn. Since it's likely going to be below freezing all weekend, I guess we've got a White Christmas by default. No sustained strong winds; however, there have been gusts. I live in a somewhat heavily wooded area, though. There will likely be a tree or two down nearby before it's over. If one knocks out the power, I'll start up the generator and ride things out. All in all, it could be worse. Still, I hate cold weather...and it's C-O-L-D out there. Stay warm and safe, everyone. |
10 degrees today (Spokane), not sure what it was with windchill. But we sure had a great time. My wife wasn't as gung-ho as I was, but she persevered in frigid temps.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...543eb68e53.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...d222aa3e78.jpg

1,200 Scientists and Professionals Declare: “There is No Climate Emergency”
https://dailysceptic.org/2022/08/18/...ate-emergency/ They blow up the effect of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, but ignore any beneficial effects. “CO2 is not a pollutant,” it says. “It is essential to all life on Earth. Photosynthesis is a blessing. More CO2 is beneficial for nature, greening the Earth; additional CO2 in the air has promoted growth in global plant biomass. It is also good for agriculture, increasing the yield of crops worldwide.” |

It finally warmed up here. It is a amazingly nice 30 now.

Wait, I was told green energy was the way of the future and all these new innovations like smart meters etc, wouldn't be used to control the population.
Conspiracy fact #274 If Germans are worried about getting through the Winter of 2023, they ain’t seen nothing yet. 2024 could be even worse, thanks to government bureaucracy. And yes, that goes for those environmentally-minded volk who are cruising the Autobahn in their EVs. The cryptically-named Federal Network Agency has announced plans to empower German power grid operators to remotely limit home heat pumps and EV chargers. And this can be done without the customer’s permission. And lest German citizens think that they have the spring, summer, and fall to make adjustments, this policy is set to take effect next month. It should be running at full speed, so to speak, by the time winter rolls around next year. Breitbart News cited the German publication Die Welt in explaining that the increasing number of electric cars in the country and the uptick in people using heat pumps for homes are environmentally friendly but are gobbling up power and are taking a toll on power grids. https://12ft.io/proxy?q=https%3A%2F%...inter-n1656741 |

Here is the thing: everyone wants to have cheap, unlimited power available 100% of the time. Guess what? You can't have all three. At best, you can only have two. And it seems that in the US we've leaned heavily on cheap. Efforts by utilities to add generation capacity is usually met with protestations regarding the increased rates that would result. I am sure no one will be surprised that the loudest crowd about utility rates are often the same folks that embrace smart meter conspiracies. |

With the housing crisis going on for years and years now, I have no doubts whatsoever the EV push will continue leaps and bound above the housing crisis. It's not hard to see, for those that choose to pay attention, that is exactly what is currently happening. I wonder how many gave it any thought, with thousands and thousands of illegal, unchecked and unvaccinated alien's crossing our borders each and everyday and being spread throughout our countries, why our govt's were implementing vaccine passports and mandates on its own citizens? Anyone paying attention to all the lies, the corruption and the censorship Elon Musk is exposing? Musk, once a god of the left, is now being shunned, ridiculed and kicked to the curb (like we've seen so many times) for exposing all the lies and corruption of our govt's and the left's heads are absolutely exploding. Nary a word lately about the promotion of Musk's EV's because the left is pissed they lost their platform they used to spread fake news and lies and all their lies, corruption and complicity is being exposed. Of course, because that's what they're paid to do, the likes of CNN, MSNBC and The New York Times, etc, are all denying/covering for the left, but even they, despite their best efforts aren't having much luck because most people are finally starting to wake up. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/...Czudvw7M8sAAAA https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/...Cwsce-ptAsAAAA https://twitter.com/stillgray/status...DRreDj1LgsAAAA https://twitter.com/murraymints82/st...Cg_aThhbssAAAA |

You don't recognize the likes of CNN and MSNBC being fake news spreading propaganda sites and likely believe every word the spew to you as truthful and factual? I'm unsure where you receive your news/info from but I can't help but believe it's from those I listed above or similar? |

I do not care one bit about politics and never watch ANY news outlet. I go by my real life experiences. If you noticed you post links and usually I give real life experiences as to why I believe what I do. Now back to the topic. How did the storm hit in your area? The mail here is way behind. I sent a 91 Topps DS Chipper Jones to a fellow member last Friday and I got a text it left a sorting facility 100 miles away this morning. |

I know it's tough believing what is actually happening compared to what you believe/are told, but it is becoming more and more clear each and everyday, all those once conspiracy theories are coming true. You remind me of my 83 yr old father. He watches CTV New/CNN and reads the Toronto Star. All very left leaning left propaganda sites and he thinks he is informed. I cut him some slack because of his age and because there likely was a time in his life when the news was actually true and unbiased but it pains me at the same time to see what years of fake news and propaganda has done to him. |

The smart people, who can't afford their utility bills, among other things, will definitely rethink about having children or having as many children as their forefathers did. How people can't connect the dots and see that is beyond me? |

For me that is the problem with your posts. Your links are extremely biased to promote an agenda that has absolutely nothing to do with what is happening the real world. It is like watching the History Channel and believing Ancient Aliens/Mountain Monsters are real documentaries. |
