DC snowstorm would screw up Trump's inauguration.

spell-cast on his inauguration.

[Vinca]

[LeftInTX]

6. It will be that at Noon today. Sun has not risen and it's only 58 degrees at 6:40 am

But, we're in for big cold!!! Wind is gonna shift at midnight and it's gonna get down to 34. We're supposed to get our first freeze this week.

Everything is still growing, except for my deciduous trees.

[patricia92243]

8. I live in the middle of Florida, and it is only 44 degrees. What area are you??

[malaise]

9. St Andrew Jamaica

😀

[LeftInTX]

19. What?? I'm in San Antonio and it's 60! But it's supposed to get cold tonight.

Still, it's weird for it to be that cold in the middle of Florida and for us not be to cold!!

[Conjuay]

10. 42F in O-land-O,

Had to get up before sunrise to wash the frost off everything.

But this coming week will be a challenge; I can stop frost damage, but that artic front they're talking about...

[Duncanpup]

11. Dunc pup and I will sleep on your couch

Will do red beans and rice I’m in mood for it.

[malaise]

14. Ha

😀

[Woodwizard]

12. Wife and I

Are going for a hike this morning with friends. It is a nice crisp 24. I love winter, lived in HI for 5 years love the Catskills more.

Added bonus no BUGS.

[malaise]

16. I hate winter and winter hates me

Enjoy your hike😀
I’ll walk to the pharmacy later this morning

[Woodwizard]

103. It was great!

We walked in a valley along a river the ice formations were awesome. Especially waterfalls.

[malaise]

105. Nice

😀

[alittlelark]

13. Subtract 70 and you get my temp this AM n/t

[LeftInTX]

15. Yikes!

[malaise]

17. Damn

Stay warm😀

[William769]

18. Woke up this morning here in S.W. Florida to 41 degrees.

Sheesh.

[malaise]

20. Anytime daytime is in the 70s in the city here, it's pretty cold in Florida

Stay warm.

[William769]

24. Thanks!

[LeftInTX]

21. Weird. It's warmer in Dallas than it is in Miami!

[William769]

23. We are up to 51 right now. Went up 10 degrees in the past 2 hours.

Our high today is suppose to be 75 degrees. Overnight Monday we're suppose to have a wind chill somewhere in the lower 30's.

[LeftInTX]

28. We're supposed to get our first freeze here sometime this week.

Usually we get it in early December.

[AKwannabe]

37. 44 at quarter of 7 in Seattle

[SARose]

25. 62F in my little part of Texas

High today is 75. Downhill from there - low tomorrow 36 with N winds 20/30 mph.

Hello Winter!👍 Finally!

[surfered]

26. 70 here, but 40 tomorrow morning 🥶

[Liberal In Texas]

27. It's about 68 here this morning...but

an arctic express is coming through later.

[bluesbassman]

47. Yeah, is this false Winter or our one week of true Winter?

‘Cuz next week it’ll likely be back in the 80’s again! Probably not true Winter though, I was in my HEB yesterday and people hadn’t stripped the shelves bare.

[Liberal In Texas]

62. I just got back from picking up a few things from Albertson's and the temp has dropped

to around 55 and the wind is gusty and very frigid.

The store wasn't all that busy.

[LeftInTX]

69. Well that was quick. You were the second hottest place in the country!

[Liberal In Texas]

80. Indeed. I walked out around 6 a.m. and it was actually very nice. The wind was out of the south.

Then that front moved through. The wind shifted and it's now about 44°.

[yellowdogintexas]

49. DFW is 43 degrees at 9 am. Blue Norther headed our way in next 24 hours

I will be staying indoors with a cat on my lap.

[3Hotdogs]

29. Yeah, right now, I wish I was living next door to you in your house in Australia.

[malaise]

34. Australia

That’s my friend Canetoad.
I’m a million miles away in Jamaica😀

Stay warm

[3Hotdogs]

73. Jamaica - a happy, then sad memory. I live in a "communal' type of house. Lynn got dementia and needed in-home care.

The agency sent us Rena.... and she was wonderful. In her 70's. She was a sergeant in the Jamaica army and then moved to the U.S. with her family. She owned a house in Jamaica and planned to move there when she retired. Lynn was going to be her last client and then she would retire.

Sundays were the best, when we would cook breakfast together. I would do the eggs, Rena would do bacon, sausage and grits.

After Lynn passed, we would have her over for supper or afternoon tea/coffee. She lived about 5 miles away in East Orange. She would also visit her mom in Brooklyn and sometimes stay there.

Then came covid. She went to stay with her mom. That was the last we heard from her. We tried finding what happened to her. The staff at her apartment building had no information. The nursing home agency had no contact after she retired. So we guess she was one of Covid's victims.

I think of her every Sunday morning, when I am frying eggs.

[malaise]

74. Oh my goodness

Too sad but glad you have fond memories.

[TommieMommy]

30. 44 when I went outside to feed the critters

[PJMcK]

31. We're in Panama City, Panama for the week

It's 81º F and partly sunny. I'm wearing shorts and a tee shirt. Sight seeing in the historic district today.

It was 2º F when we left our house in the Catskills yesterday.

As I get older, I hate the cold more and more.

[kkmarie]

32. Highland MI chilly

It's 10 degrees right now

[AllaN01Bear]

33. wu says that its 34 degrees f in sonora ca.

[boonecreek]

35. +12F here

Feels like is +1, going up to +22, brrr!

[Klondike Kat]

36. It's a balmy -3F here

Up a degree from -4F at 0600. Expected high of 14F today.

Aah - January in Minnesota.

[malaise]

75. Freezing

Damn. Stay warm

[bottomofthehill]

38. It was 14 degrees here in DC suburbs when I took the dogs out

[Xavier Breath]

39. I'm not a fan of warm weather, especially in January, so you can keep it.

Actually looking forward to the snow we're about to get.

[wolfie001]

57. Truth!!!

Whenever it's 60 and above in Jan/Feb here in Maryland, I think of glaciers melting and the Earth burning up.

[Xavier Breath]

59. And for anyone with lingering drought effects the snow will be welcomed.

I think we're just about back to normal after recent rains, and if so, a bit of a surplus would be a nice change.

[Tarzanrock]

40. My electric blanket is set to 85 degrees ...

... which is the preferred temperature setting of my kitty, Francoise. It's 47 degrees this morning here in Los Angeles.

[Emile]

44. I got a new electric throw for Christmas.

Makes sitting in my recliner a lot warmer.

[Tanuki]

41. When are you hosting the DU meet-up?

[malaise]

89. Ha

Back in the day when I was young I could do that quite well.
Now not so much.

[Tanuki]

93. When I was in graduate school in Chicago and my sister

was living in Jamaica, I visited her there twice (once at Christmas and once over spring break). It was sublime!
🥶🧊❄️☃️ ➡️➡️➡️ 🍍🍌🌴🏖🏝

[GiqueCee]

43. It's 15 degrees right now...

... in Central Vermont. Not exactly bikini weather.

[mountain grammy]

45. 17 in Denver. Warmer in the mountains 🙄

[niyad]

46. 21F here, with a high of 32. Gloating is soooo not nice! To be fair, we did

have a high of 60 the other day. .and snow the next morning!

[Kenneth53151]

48. 8F in the West suburbs of Milwaukee 9:00am

(at least it's not 8 below)

[La Coliniere]

50. 25 degrees here in balmy Buffalo

At least we’re not buried in 5 ft of Lake Effect snow. The wind has been terrible over the last 5 days. Constant 15-25 mph winds and guts to 40 every day. Not exactly walking weather, but I’ll think about Jamaica on my jaunt to keep me inspired!

[dflprincess]

101. My mother always swore Buffalo* winters felt colder than Minneapolis (plus a lot more snow)

that was, as Ocelot notes in a post below, Minneapolis tends to have a dry cold & Buffalo was damper.


*My family lived there for several years after my dad was transferred out there (Hamburg, to be exact).

[La Coliniere]

102. That's probably true.

With the wind blowing across Lake Erie the air is bound to get more humid. Lately the cold has been kind of dry, but when the humidity kicks in you can feel it in your bones and it’s not pleasant. Thinking it’s going to be another erratic winter, just like the last 3 when most of the lake remained free of ice because of the wobbling jet stream. A direct result of climate change. With Lake Erie not freezing over, the threat of severe lake-effect snow remains high. When it ices over, the snow machine shuts down.

[Ocelot II]

51. +1 in Minneapolis. But it's a dry cold.

[Emile]

56. LOL

Reminds me of my dad when he retired to Tucson, Arizona. One hundred and twenty degrees and he would say it's not too bad, it's a dry heat.

[Ocelot II]

66. Actually, dry cold is a whole lot more tolerable than damp cold.

I've never been so cold as I was one winter afternoon in Chicago - it was barely below freezing but there was a humid wind coming off the lake and it cut to the bone. Humidity makes both heat and cold a lot worse. In a little while I'll bundle up and go for a pleasant walk in the dry cold. As they say in another cold place, Det finnes ikke dårlig vær, bare dårlig klær. (There is no bad weather, only bad clothing.)

[Emile]

70. LOL, Norwegians are tough people.

[doc03]

52. It's 13F here and beautiful with the blue sky and the sun glistening off the ice crystals in the air

and the snow on the ground.

[murielm99]

53. It is 14 degrees Fahrenheit here.

We like the temperature contrasts.

[Joinfortmill]

54. Its 23 in my neighborhood by the sea in NH and feels like -3. Brrrr!

[ReRe]

55. Just below the Mason Dixon Line

25 F & go'in down outside. Furnace went out 8:30 last night. Waiting on repairman. Temp indoors 60 F.
Snow finally started in about an hour ago. Supposed to snow until 8PM.

[yorkster]

58. Malaise, you minx you...

Warming up to 25 F in southern Maine...

[GoCubsGo]

60. I'm happy for the cold weather we're getting.

Constantly dripping sweat gets really old after a while. I'm about to head out for a walk, and those are much more pleasant now. The same goes for yard work. Hopefully, it's enough to knock back the fire ants and other pests, too. We need a freeze for the peach crop, and lots of other plants around here need the cold to bloom/set fruit.

[2naSalit]

61. It's +23F here...

And it's warmed up overnight from +11F!

And the sky is clear for the first time since last Wednesday! I might see stars and whatever else is in the sky tonight!

[DFW]

68. Here, too

I’m still in northern Virginia. I’m supposed to fly out tomorrow morning in the the middle of a snow storm that should have 4 to 5 inches on the ground by then.

That should be an adventure.

[2naSalit]

79. Ugh!

I feel for you. Last spring I flew to the east coast, for the eclipse, and got stuck in a snowstorm at Newark... for 27 hours. Once I got to my destination everything was good but getting there was far from pleasant.


Have a safe and pleasant journey!

[KS Toronado]

63. Trade ya

Currently snowing at 4 inches with ice as a bottom layer and forecast says continue snowing until
approximately 3 o'clock with 10 to 15 inches of total accumulation.

Refrigerator & pantry are stocked if you enjoy shoveling snow,

[peggysue2]

64. You've made us all jealous, malaise

I woke up to 27 degrees (feels like 14) in Delaware. At least it's not windy today!

[a kennedy]

65. Dang it, don't rub it in. 😅

It’s 3 with the real feel being minus 4.

[Wicked Blue]

67. 30F here at the Jersey shore

and snow is forecast for Monday morning.
whee.

[Igel]

71. 10:18 am and 74 F.

But it's Houston.

But they times they are a-changin'. Maybe 29 F tonight as a chunk of cold atmosphere from up north makes its way here to warm up over the next few days.

Good thing--it reduces the population of some unpleasant bugs.

Bad thing--it kills off the population of some very pleasant plants.

[LeftInTX]

100. It's time to throw the laundry in the yard...LOL

[Littlered]

72. It was 14 out this morning

Beautiful coating of snow on the ground that is giving a nice contrast to the cardinals. Have a nice fire going, and it’s a nice toasty 81°.

[Diamond_Dog]

76. Nothing like rubbing it in, malaise!

Haha

22 degrees at noon here in snowy NE Ohio.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

77. It is 76 degrees right now but will be in the 30s by tomorrow morning

[FullySupportDems]

78. I'm listening to ice hitting the windows

And thinking

?si=5QV0GtS6uEgqWiL4]

[malaise]

88. I feel for you

[FullySupportDems]

90. I hope the sunshine is lovely :)

Spring is coming here! In just a few months...

[malaise]

94. Been cloudy most of the day

😀

[Prairie_Seagull]

81. And your place sleeps how many?

Never been to Jamaica. haha

about 38 here when it would normally be in snow.

[malaise]

82. Let me see

There are three here at the mo😀

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

83. It it's 73F in Jamaica, is everyone wearing coats?

Is 73 the normal temp for this time of year?

Here, it's about 25F, but no snow. (No rain or mosquitos, either )

[milestogo]

84. Its 13F where I live this morning.

I live here by choice.

[NewDayOranges]

85. 🤬UNFRIENDING!

Oh, wait... This isn't Facebook!

[madinmaryland]

86. Paging Skittles. Ordering up an asskicking for you!! 🤬🤬🤬

[Disaffected]

87. Wuss.

It's -12C here now in the GWN.

[senseandsensibility]

91. Sounds good, but I think I prefer

the South Bay (South of San Francisco) where I am. True it dips into the forties at night and the mornings are chilly, but every day for the next ten days it will warm into the mid to high 60's, which is perfect to me. The days are also brilliantly clear and sunny which helps my mood.

[canetoad]

92. I'm gazing longingly at the rain radar

A huge patch is about to hit us within the hour after a 40 c. couple of days. Still, it's not cold - comfortable 24c with a hot week coming up.

I'm a bit envious of your weather, as I am of my sister's in Queensland. The heat can be extreme here.

[malaise]

96. We never get as hot as Parts of Oz

Good series win against India

[canetoad]

97. Yep

I'm liking the looks of that new, young guy, Sam Konstas. Future captain.

[malaise]

98. Brave kid

His father exposed him to a serious bowling machine since he was eight. Fearless.😀
Now I can get some sleep. These very late nights are rough😀

[ornotna]

95. It's 73 here

In my house right now.



It's 62 outside.

[LeftInTX]

99. I just looked up your average temps. Ugh..No wonder you're cold..

I figured low 70s were the average lows this time of year. But the average low this past Dec was 78. Muggy, muggy...

[NEOH]

104. 18F at my house w/10-12 inches of snow

18F at my house w/10-12 inches of snow on the ground.
