I'm glad I'm home and warm 2ErisofDiscordCalifornia is serene, as usual. We even had the windows open today. Sometimes I wish a good snowstorm would come here. Then all the softies here in the suburbs would learn how to toughen up and stop complaining about a spot of rain. 4Kerian#2 ErisedofDiscord: Hey, now. I live in a CA suburb and love the rain. ;) Completely right, though. There's nothing to tell about our weather. I'm hoping to go see some snow soon. 5katelisimLast night, Minnesota had rain that turned into sleet that turned into the biggest snow flakes I have ever seen. We were party hopping and for a short time visibility was almost non-existent. Thankfully, it calmed down a bit by the time we drove again. I haven't left the house today, so I don't know much about what's happening now, just that the wind has been very audible. It's still above zero though, which makes me happy :) 6kirbyownsUncommonly warm here. Today's high was 61. We've not had any real winter weather yet here. 8foggidawnIt's been unseasonably warm here, but the cold weather is supposed to slam in this weekend, with a chance of snow. 13susiesharpWe have had a great winter so far in ND it was 50 on monday but now old man winter is sneaking in it's 5 degrees today with strong winds but still just a dusting of snow! Last year at this time we had more snow than we knew what to do with! 14pollysmithOkay so we have had our first winter storm of the season. Ice and snow wind and bitter cold 15foggidawn#14 -- Yep, it's been yucky. Extremely cold and windy, with that gritty, powdery snow that stings when it blows in your face. 16jugglingpaynesBrrr! Who took my nice weather? We've been so spoiled with mild weather and now the cold came back with a bitter wind. 18KerianIt's pretty warm in CA. I've been out walking with short sleeved shirts. I saw a lot of people snacking on ice cream today. 20ChelseaBottomleyIt's been an unusually warm winter here, even for Southern California. On Monday it was finally cold and rainy but the rest of the week it's been getting warmer and windier. 80 degrees with high winds is one of my least favorite types of weather. :( 22grkmwkI know this might sound crazy to some, but I want snow!! We've had an unusually warm winter so far, without any hint of snow, and it makes me sad. The past two winters were great, because we had several good but manageable snowfalls, and I want that again. 23foggidawn#22 -- It's been mild here, too. We've had a couple of small snows, but they were not nice snows, if that makes sense. Just a couple of inches each time, and it was hard, crusty snow that was not fun to play in or walk in, nor was it deep enough to really look pretty. 25katelisimWe've also been mild. Our snow stuck a while back. Now we are in the thaw/freeze cycle. . . so there is ice everywhere in the mornings/evenings but mostly great in the afternoons. Though, a few sidewalk stretches at school are under tree cover and stay ice--accumulating more each day. I almost took a spill on them, so I've been walking on the road instead. 27KasongoVery bad fog this morning. The snow that was here when we got here plus the bit that came last week, is about gone, but some more is expected on Saturday. Today, it was 48. 28ChelseaBottomley#21 Haha it seems like it, especially this winter. Today it has cooled off to the mid 70s. Not sure if it's ever going to get colder than that before next winter... 29katelisimThe last few days have been super foggy. Last night, it all froze! There were ice crystals on everything. Not just flat, either, standing crystals. There was one sticking out from the keyhole on my car. Here's a pic I found online that looks pretty dang close to how -everything- looked for the first half of the day. The trees started melting around 2-3 this afternoon. 30jugglingpaynesSo...I just pictured foggi in a cape shooting ice crystals. "Three weeks late?! Do you think you're the only one who wanted that book? I'll show you! Mwahahahaha!" *delinquent borrower stands crystallized* 32KerianFunny! Where would we be without imagination? *shivers* Thanks for sharing the picture, Kate! I can only imagine (interesting word choice, no? ;) from here. California is somewhat hot. I've noticed a lot of people riding bikes these last few days. 35ErisofDiscordIndeed, California is nice now, and though I am still pining for a snowstorm, I have been able to get my bike out again so that I can huff and puff up the smallest inclines. I am so out of shape. 36kirbyownsThree inches of snow today, and freezing rain coming. School was canceled today, but will be back in session for tomorrow. It should be 48 degrees tomorrow, and 60 on Wednesday. 37grkmwkWe finally got some snow yesterday! Wasn't much, only about an inch, and given how warm it's been and today's sun, it's almost gone. But it finally came!!! 40katelisimWe had snow a couple days ago. Then we got melty days and frozen nights. Now we have ice everywhere :/ 44ChelseaBottomleyAs winter is nearing its end, we finally got our winter weather! Biggest storm of the year, it's been pouring all day. :) I love to wake up to rain and lie there listening to it for a few minutes. 45katelisimToo warm! I like my temps in the 50-65 F range. . . it's almost 80! Spring, where are yooooouuuuu?!? 46grkmwk#45, katelisim - We seem to have skipped over spring as well: it's going to be 81 here today. Ugh! Given that today is the first day of spring but already feels like the early days of summer does not bode well for what the real summer temps will be. Sigh. 47ChelseaBottomleyIt's looking absolutely beautiful outside right now. It's pouring rain and the sun is shining; I love this weather. :) It's also only 49 degrees outside...definitely cold for our spring, especially compared to last week's upper 80s. | AboutThis topic is not marked as primarily about any work, author or other topic.
