[msmofet]

If I get nothing done today...I'm blaming the cats!

LOL I had a very productive day yesterday WOW it is STILL yesterday I haven't slept yet!! I posted my adventure in the hello and good day thread

18F and gorgeous. No wind and lots of sun, so that you can hardly see when outside. My kind of winter day. The sun makes all the difference in the world.

It's only gone up 1 degree in 3 hours. Wind is kicking! Overcast and kind of gloomy.

Funny this thread should be on top at the moment. The weather is on everyone's mind here in Edmonton right now. We've had a pretty big dump of snow and navigating the streets is next to impossible. Folks got stuck getting INTO the parking lot at work last night, got stuck getting out, stuck in their own driveways and the list goes on. Its stopped snowing at the moment, but the sky looks heavy, there's more coming! Its -13C (8F) right now and the wind is pretty bad. I think I'm going to stay home tonight until yoga class!

Found this for our friends in Minnesota:

And that's why I don't live in MN anymore. Too funny--I could relate to all the photos. Been there, done that.

Thanks for sharing the link. It's on it's way to my friends who still live there <g>.

Still no snow....

It's snowing here. Expecting 10 inches this time. Actually this would be the first real snow we got this year. The rest was just dust so I don't count it.
Very windy and Cold. Dark for this time of day too.

cloudy and cold. getting tired of this gloomy weather. as sick of the rain as we got, it seems to me if it going to be gloomy, it might as well rain.

Cloudy with a chance of meatballs. I almost did make meatballs LOL

Cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey. No, there is nothing obscene in that. Anyone curious?

It's a great expression. I know from whence it comes.

Oops, I just looked it up on Wikipedia and they claim it's an urban legend. Brass monkey (colloquial expression) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Even Snopes says it's an urban legend. Phooey.

Right now it is 28 degrees F and nice and calm outside. James just left for school about 20 minutes ago because a winter storm is supposed to hit early in the morning (sleet, snow, ice) and last until Tuesday.

I forgot to leave the bathroom faucet running a little last night (it was below 20). I went to turn the shower on, to get ready for church, and the pipes were frozen. I had to wet a couple towels with water from the refrigerator (good thing I filled the pitcher last night!) and heat them in the microwave. That was our shower substitute this morning!

Twenty below and pipes freezing in South Carolina!!! I never would have believed that could happen. I thought South Carolina was one of those almost perpetually warm places. Hope you opened the cupboards, turned on the faucet and directed a fan at the pipes.

43F wind has finally calmed down to N9, and stopped rattling the windows. It was gray, blustery and downright gloomy. I hope there's sun tomorrow.

 

[taxlady]

Light snow -9C (16F) feels like -17C (1F). Looks like 3-4" new snow accumulated.

It actually gets into the single digits now and then. A couple weeks ago it was 9 degrees over night. It is definitely warmer than many other states, but it does get cold sometimes. It also depends on where you go in the state. We have beaches and mountains, with the "mid-lands" inbetween.

The bathroom cupboard is open and the faucet is running slowly. There is a heating vent just a couple feet from the pipes.

It is windy and cloudy all day. And we had some rain in the morning.

 

[Barbara L]

It started snowing at 2:30 a.m. and has been snowing steadily ever since (almost 2 1/2 hours). Everything is covered, and it is beautiful! I can't wait to see it in the daylight!

The bad part about this snowstorm is that they are expecting it to leave several inches of snow, then turn into freezing rain, which will cause icy roads and electrical outages.

Partly cloudy, chance of showers, mid-70's this afternoon. Sorry, folks, but then that's why people come to Florida in January -- and pretty much what keeps our economy from freezing up.

Go ahead, Taxlady - send down a few Canadian 's. We can take it.

We got about 5 inches on top of the freezing rain we got yesterday.
Flakes are still coming down but they are very fine right now.
Like SC we are in this until Tuesday morning and temps will stay under 15F most of the week.
Over all I think this year so far we have been lucky unlike last year, we had 5 blizzards.
In all my years I have never seen that before!
Several feet of snow was so strange to see!
