Temp and situation check!

[Texasgal]

It's 29 degrees here in Austin, TX. We are expecting more Ice over night and then BOOM! The polar plunge commences... It'll be 10 degrees tomorrow night with snow.

I've got a gas fireplace, so i I lose power atleast I'll have warmth! This is the craziest winter weather Central Texas has ever seen!

How about you?

1. DC area, icy rain today, maybe into tonight

No idea when it stops. Maybe snow on Monday?

2. Columbus, Ohio

We’re having an actual winter here for the first time in about five years. It has snowed almost every day in February. We have 7”-8” on the ground right now with another 6”-8” coming starting Sunday night.

Hubster made a huge kettle of his Hungarian grandmother’s vegetable soup. A couple weeks ago, I found the snow boots that had been in hiding and unneeded for years.

Stay safe!

3. Minneapolis, -5 all day, expected wind chill tonight -35.

Went for a walk today; my mask iced up and my eyelashes froze together. But it's not really that bad, for here.

6. The news just said that Tuesday morning

we'll be in negative temps!

This is unreal for our area!

Stay Warm!

8. There is no bad weather, only bad clothing.

You have to dress for it; if you have the right clothes it's not a problem. Layer your clothes; wear wool or synthetics rather than cotton; keep your head warm and cover exposed skin as much as possible. And keep moving. If you have to drive somewhere away from a city, keep a winter safety kit in your car. https://www.almanac.com/content/winter-car-emergency-kit

Thank you!

13. I'll remember that

when I’m walking around southern Arizona this summer and laugh. At least it’s a dry heat.

It’s one thing I miss about real winters. Like you meant, you can dress for the cold. Bottles of ice, a big hat, finding shade, going slow and avoiding the hottest hours is all you can do for heat when walking.

I love cold raining days. Hot sunny ones not so much.

20. The saying is Norwegian.

Det finnes ikke dårlig vær, bare dårlige klær. Obviously they are more concerned there with dressing for cold weather, since they lack deserts and it seldom gets really hot. So they probably don't think about that angle at all.

12. lived in LaCrosse, WI for a while...

we used to call it a dry cold....

4. All's quiet

in SW Ohio. Large snowfall due to hit Monday, 4-8 inches likely with maybe as much as 10 inches. Remaining cold with a chance on Thursday of yet another storm.

We hadn't more then flurries then entire winter, but now it's coming with a vengeance.

5. 17 degrees in Tulsa area, low tonight of 6

low Monday night of -6 and 8-10 inches of snow expected.

[NutmegYankee]

7. Warming up for a few days.

Unfortunately they will be sleet and freezing rain fests. We've already gotten about 35" this season in snow. After that we drop again to highs in the 20s, but that isn't uncommon in Connecticut.

10. High 23, low 8 here in Albuquerque tomorrow with wind, rain, snow and who knows what for the

next 5 days. It is winter but I was just getting used to our spring weather! I don't even want to
think about losing power since we're all electric! We do have lots of clothes, blankets and
cold-weather experience!

11. NE Ohio

Temp is currently 27 degrees - it's been low 20's as a high for a week now. Snow / ice not even a hint of melting. But next week - cold front peaks at 16 high, 6 degrees low, then warms up to mid 30s by Friday. Thank goodness! Last few winters have spoiled us.

14. 19 in Detroit and environs....

.... but to be honest we really hadn't had much winter until February arrived.

[ananda]

15. Austin here too -- it's fukkin cold and ..

the temp is going down to around 13 degrees.

I hate the cold. I do so much better in heat.

16. Getting down to like -5 on KC and my kitchen pipes

already froze once. May have to stay up tonight to turn the water on every few hours. It was the hot water one and thawed out by some hairdryer to the pipe for an hour. bit will be -14 during the day. Zoinks!

[Demonaut]

17. 1 degree, high was 4 today, it will get -5 tonite at least

[subterranean]

18. 29 and snowing in Seattle area

Our first snowfall of the winter. We have at least half a foot of the white stuff on the ground now.

[Corgigal]

19. Berea Kentucky

Now 28 degrees, 10 percent chance of snow. Ice is everywhere. We are running out of salt at all of our local stores. Lost power, half a day but our gas fireplace made it bearable. Power back, and we’re all staying in.

Dogs aren’t happy about going out. Thankfully we have doggie pads in front of the back yard.

[LeftInTX]

21. San Antonio: Pretty much the same, 29 or 30 depending on the station I look at

I doubt if we're gonna get snow...
I'll be pleasantly surprised, because I'm not going anywhere.

It's kinda misty and since it's below freezing, we are currently under a winter storm warning.
