Very Cold, Light Lake Effect Snow . . . .

Very Cold, Light Lake Effect Snow . . . .

We have very frigid temps today with highs only expected to remain in the single digits.  Besides that, we have light lake effect snow showers.  So it feels like a very January day.  On this inauguration day, Washington DC is also very cold and I hope that all attending the festivities are dressed warm.  I’m happy that I’m watching it on my TV in a warm room. Our 1:30 PM temperature is 10°F (-12°C), the humidity is 81%, and winds…

Polar Bear Weather . . . .

Polar Bear Weather . . . .

I think polar bears would love our weather but not us so much.  It is extremely cold and I’m glad I don’t have to go out in it.  The sun is peeking through a little and we have had a few snow showers earlier today.  The wind is making it unbearable to be out for more than a few minutes.  I’m just happy that it will be warming up about Thursday. Our 3:30 PM temperature is 16°F (-9°C), the humidity…

No More Mild Weather For A While . . . .

No More Mild Weather For A While . . . .

The next several days will be very frigid with highs only in the single digits and lows below zero.  Fortunately, it won’t last but just a couple of days.  There is no snow in our forecast anytime soon either so my deck should stay clear for a while. Our 2:15 PM temperature is 28°F (-2C), the humidity is 66%, and winds are from the NW at 6-15 mph.  Skies are cloudy and we received just a trace of rain over…

A Little Sun Before the Misery . . . .

A Little Sun Before the Misery . . . .

Today looks to be one of our more pleasant days before the deep freeze.  Highs should reach above freezing and we could see quite of bit of sunlight.  Right now, we have a thin cloud cover and filtered sun.  Winds aren’t too strong yet but are expected to pick up through the afternoon.  I’m hoping that at least all the snow will melt where we shoved on the deck before more snow arrives tonight. Our 10:45 temp is 32°F, the…

Just More Of The Same . . . .

Just More Of The Same . . . .

There is no change in our weather from the past several days.  Mornings begin with cloudy skies, then some clearing and a little sun in the afternoon.  I’m not sure if we’ll see any sun today, but regardless, it won’t do much to warm it up if we do.  So for now, we’re stuck with typical January weather.  The next two days should make it above freezing anyway.  Then next week . . . .. . . UGH!  Need I…

Clearing Skies This Afternoon . . . .

Clearing Skies This Afternoon . . . .

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…

Another Snow Day . . .

Another Snow Day . . .

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…

More Snow . . . .

More Snow . . . .

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….

A Snowy January Day . . . .

A Snowy January Day . . . .

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,…
