What's your weather right now? 2021

[dragnlaw]

Princess, my weather in southern Ontario is rather similar to yours! Last night it was 45, this morning, 35. For me that is very warm, but it is the wind!

Yesterday was down around 18 mph, this morning only 8 mph getting up to 14 around noon. I know it doesn't seem like much but when you are surrounded by trees that are whipping all over the place and watching some pretty hefty branches litter the paths - I've been nervous about walking the dog!

and the winds are coming out of the west... harumph, thanks guys.

Right now, it's overcast and 5°C and it feels like 0°C.

Our weather has been bizarre, especially yesterday. Our high for the day was 15°C, at 22h00 (10 PM)! That is very unusual for Montréal in December. I just searched a bit. Yesterday's high may be a tie for warmest day in December, set in 1902.

0°C = 32°F
5°C = 41°F
15°C = 59°F

Windy, did not check the MPH, but the trees are waving all about. Little packed snowballs, not hail. And blue skies to the north. Wind is coming from the northwest. Makes my attic door slam.

Last night was my coldest so far this season, since early March - 26°. And at 10 am there was still frost all over, and still just under freezing, and staying well under average. I haven't checked my plants yet - most are resistant to low 20s, so should be ok. Temps will be rising again - 55° by Christmas!

I misread that as minus 26° and wondered why it was so much colder in NJ, than here in Quebec. But, when I read minus 55° at Xmas, I was shocked and then the penny dropped.

As some of you may know, our area has been devastated by serious tornadoes. As an example, here is a bank video of some of the damage. What you will see is the initial storm's attack on the bank, which is directly across the street from the courthouse.

Look here for the attack on the bank: https://www.nbc12.com/video/2021/12/20/caught-camera-tornado-hits-bank-branch-mayfield-kentucky/.

Everything has been squashed.

Our community will be ever the same again!

Such sad devastation for so many in the path of tornadoes.

Oh, Katie, I didn't realize you and Glenn live near Mayfield! I'm so sorry for your town, and the others affected by these storms. Take care of yourself and your family. Hugs.

Got a Weather Warning today... for southern Ontario

from Thu 23, 6:18 AM EST to Thu 23, 10:18 PM EST
weather advisory in effect

Winter weather travel advisory in effect for late this afternoon through tonight.

Total snowfall accumulations of 2 to 6 cm can be expected by the time the snow tapers off overnight. Snowfall rates are expected to be at their highest this evening and may cause impacts to the evening commute.

Now, this is a picture from quite awhile ago, but in Quebec this is what you could expect when you had a weather warning.

 

[msmofet]

Woke up to a dusting of snow. All gone now.

 

[GinnyPNW]

Our weather if pretty typical for us. Overcast, showers...they are saying we will have snow. The governor and the mayor, across the river from us have declared a "State of Emergency"! It doesn't seem like it warrants it, but if people are going to parties and getting on the highways, maybe?

LOL! Emergency kit is packed and ready. Luckily I only have 10 miles to go. I can hear the snowplows arriving and setting up. Thanks!

Glad to hear that the snowplows are getting going. You might want to take a little more than a chocolate bar, though. Thousands of people spent Monday night on the highway between Richmond, VA, and Washington, DC, because of a snowstorm and several crashes. If you need medicine, take extra. Be safe [emoji171]

 

[dragnlaw]

Add snowshoes and a compass to your kit!

 

[GinnyPNW]

You might add a good book, or The Good Book to your Emergency Kit!

Sending up a prayer for your safe travels!
