How's the Weather Where You Are?

[Krystal Shay]

Right now, it is sunny! Temperature is at 12 degrees with10 mph winds; feels like -1. My furnace runs non-stop; day and night almost. I may need to start a Go-Fund-Page to help pay for my electric bill next month.

Yesterday, my door camera alerted me that someone was close to the house. I looked out and what did I see, but 3 people riding horses on the road while it was still snowing in this extreme cold weather and wind. I thought to myself, "those poor horses!" I know horses are tough but it was snowing and the roads were still somewhat snow covered, even after road crews had been out plowing and salting all night and day.

+15 F. and snowing off and on. Not much accumulation yet, but tomorrow is supposed to be the "snow day" (if you saw the movie).

 

[John Brunner]

Low single-digit temps overnight for the next 5 days, then barely above 10 overnight for the next forecasted 4 days.

 

[Marie Mallory]

days in 50s, nights in the mid to low 20's. Nest Saturdays low will be 20F.So looks like Florida is going to get some really cold weather too.

This is how I am surviving the arctic blast , with the help of Simon, Garfunkel, and Magellan (aka Jelly Bean) . They are the very best leg warmers, and they purr while they are keeping me warm.

 

[Von Jones]

It's 15 degrees and expected to reach 20. With the gusts of wind I seen just now it may not make it there. The sun is shining though.

 

[Beth Gallagher]

We are at a balmy 38 degrees and headed to 50 this afternoon. This is more "typical" Houston winter so I'll take it. The sun is shining and it is a beautiful day.

 

[Ken Anderson]

Tee-shirt, short pants, and flip-flop weather - 17F. We had another inch or two of snow last night but it was soft, fluffy, and easy to scrape of the sidewalks, driveway, and paths.

 

[Don Alaska]

+7 F. and 6-7 inches of new snow. Bigger snow is expected later today, so I need to get the tractor and blower out to clear what has already fallen. Clearing 18 to 24 inches of snow is hard enough. We'll see what happens.

 

[Krystal Shay]

It's very cold and breezy, and we still have lots of snow. It has been reported we had gotten approximately 11 inches of snow and 1-2 inches of sleet. It looks to be about 9 inches of snow at my house but I didn't go out and officially measure it. A lot of the schools and businesses are still closed today. No trash pick-up, nor mail.

 

[Beth Gallagher]

It's 57 degrees and sunny. We will have another "winter blast" over this weekend with freezing temps overnight but no one is panicking yet.

 

[John Brunner]

Our overnight lows aren't gonna break 15°F until next Wednesday night, with some below 10°F nights sprinkled in. This crap is not melting...it's getting harder. At least we've not lost power.

That is kind of the situation here, too. Still really cold overnight, but compared to many places, we are doing great, and we have not even had the power blink here at all, so that is a blessing. Hoping tomorrow it will warm up enough to make our weekly Kroger trip.

Yesterday's news said there were 43,000 homes without power in the state. The current number is 14,000, many in the rural southwest (coldest) part of the state. The biggest complaint I've got is burning through a lot of firewood, but I have more than enough to last.

 

[Steve North]

Still a bit nippy today but not that bad....... Daytime will be sunny and -20c..
Again, great for a walk...

 

[Kate Ellery]

We had a couple of days in high 30’s …..a drop from mid 40’s = 116 F ……back to mid 40’s tomorrow …phew ..

 

[Ken Anderson]

16 degrees F, no new snow in the past couple of days. Overall, I think this is nicer than our usual weather.

 

[Jacob Petersheim]

I woke to 0 F, now we're at 3 degrees with sun.

We've gotten and then lost snow a few times this season. I prepared for the worst with extra snowblower batteries, but I used the snowblower just once when we got a lot of heavy snow. Figures.

Instead I have been leaf-blowing the light snow we've gotten in smaller doses. This does a surprisingly clean job.



The few small nubs of slow are from the footprints of those who insisted on trampling it down before I got to it. Even most of that has now been blown away.

 

[Beth Gallagher]

About 50F and partly cloudy. Light freeze tonight.

 

[Marie Miller]

Sunny and blue skies. Expected wind chill later today -10F.
