Today was much like yesterday. It began with cloudy skies and snow flurries, then cleared up for the afternoon. Our temps were a bit warmer today, but with the wind, it didn’t feel like it. There was a little thawing on my deck but not enough to really matter. Tomorrow and Friday will be above freezing, but only to be followed by much colder temperatures next week. Our 5:15 PM temperature is 22°F, the humidity is 73%, and skies are…
We have yet another day with intermittent snow showers and cloudy skies. I’m getting tired of shoveling, even though the snow amounts aren’t much. We have about 3 inches of snow cover at this time, and we seem to gain an inch every day. Thursday and Friday should warm up a little, before our next round of very cold temperatures. Some days next week are only expected to make it into the single digits for the high. I hope that…
After intermittent snow showers most of our Sunday, today is starting out the same way. We received about 2 inches yesterday and are getting a little more today. What’s worse is that this is the beginning of a very cold spell which will dominate most of this week. I have to say that this has been a real winter for us, something we haven’t had in a while. At least we aren’t buried in a foot or two of snow….
We have snow showers once again. Not enough to really matter, but enough to make the roads slippery. We continue to only have about an inch or two of ground cover, and there was a little thawing yesterday. The paths that I shoveled on my deck did melt down to the bare wood which was good for the dog. But it’s snowing quite hard right now, so will probably have to do it again. Our 2:45 PM temperature is 32°F,…
We have snow falling at this time and our weather advisory is forecasting about 2-4 inches by the time it is done at 1 AM. Our temperatures have warmed up a bit from this morning, but will still remain below the freezing mark. There is no significant warm-up expected anytime soon. Our 1:45 PM temperature is 24°F (-4°C), the humidity is 91%, and skies are overcast with snow. Winds are from the S at 6-12 mph, and the pressure is…
My weather station showed -1F this morning at 8:30. All other nearby weather stations showed temps in the teens. Why was it so much colder at my house? Did we have clear skies and everyone else had clouds? I don’t get it! Regardless, we have plenty of sun right now and temps have warmed up significantly. The big weather story today is the disastrous fires in Los Angeles. High winds and lack of water is making it an almost impossible…
There is really nothing new to report. My blogs have been pretty redundant lately, but what can I say? Each day is just like the last. We still see no end to these below freezing temperatures, so the little snow that we continue to have, will be with us a while longer. At least we aren’t buried like our neighbors to the south are, and even Texas is expecting a big snow event. Go figure! Our 2 PM temperature is…
Looking at the national weather map, today is much more quiet than the past two, with the snow storm and severe weather having moved off to the east. High pressure is now dominating most of the country and I’m sure it’s a relief to those in Kansas and Missouri. Unfortunately, our temperatures haven’t risen much, so no help from Mother Nature in the thawing department. It doesn’t seem to be any happening in the near future either. I guess we’re…
We sure can’t complain seeing what’s happening in Kansas and Missouri. My brother lives in DC and they’re expecting as much as a foot of snow. But the areas with the ice are hurting. Lots of power outages and snow on top of ice. We had our share of that back in December of 2013 . . . .no power for Christmas Day. I can’t believe it was that long ago. I haven’t heard much yet about the storm which…
Our day began with clear skies and sun. Now we have overcast skies and snow flurries. The central portions of the country are being buried under snow and ice. Originally, we thought that some of that would come our way, but we lucked out once again. Although we have very chilly temperatures, our snow cover remains at about 1.5″. The little snow showers that we get aren’t adding to that. Most of these are quick lake effect showers and aren’t…
