What is your weather today?

[Reloader762]

Light rain here this morning right at 6 AM at 49 degrees, freeze warning for tonight so I have to check the light bulb in the well house and make sure all my garden hoses are disconnected and drained and put the cover over my spigot.

 

[Glaciers]

-9 this morning, high today 3 above, clear with about 7 hours and 45 minutes of sunshine.. Snow is at 8" and will not melt till April, of course we will get lots more snow by then.

 

[fiver]

it was 18 in the green house this morning.
I guess I need to check on the heater in there, it's probably confused again, that or it was like the cheap thermometer on the shed said and zeroish or so.

the afternoons the last few days have been in the 50's and clear, so I guess a 50+F daily temp swing is about right, that's pretty common here.

 

[CWLONGSHOT]

CW, that looks like a freaking POST CARD. Is that the lake in your back yard?

Not back yard but close by! Its on the road to my shop. Quite picturesque!

Looks like the high temps this week will be in the minus single digits with minus teens at night. Predicting high temps in the +teens with snow by next Friday..
Heater in the shop is deciding to crap out but it's been going 6 years, so it's time. Have another Monitor waiting to toss into it's place. Should probably just switch them out. To bad the Monitor heats went out of business.

Last Two night it was really winter up here. Saturday morning was 26 degrees! Last night 34!
So all of the plants outside of the red sails lettuce and spinach are finished! Oh well it had to happen soon anyway

 

[Winelover]

Gorgeous day, today. Sunny, light wind and 70 degrees. On it's way to the mid 70's. Weather pattern expected to hold through the weekend. Porch sitting, sipping adult beverages, enjoying the fall colors.

 

[CZ93X62]

About 50%-60% overcast right now, temp 83*. We are supposed to get rain tomorrow evening and snow above 4K feet throughout the weekend. It will cool off to high 30s at night now, likely for the next three/four months or so. Killing frosts are a Dec/Jan/Feb thing here, and they don't happen every year. Our lawns have gone dormant two weeks ago. Fire season ends when the first inch of rain or foot of snow falls, and that should happen over the weekend.

Rain scheduled for overnight Friday, and clouds started moving in early this afternoon. Tomorrow's high will drop to 58, down from the 68 to 72 the last week-plus.

 

[Glaciers]

Been -20 day and night for the last week. Warming up to about 5 degrees today. Going to be close to 30 tomorrow with snow starting, 4" predicted of snow by tomorrow night, with 6 more inches by Sunday evening. At least temps in the teens to mid 20's. Nice break.
7 hours and 11 minutes of sunshine.

 

[Ian]

Minus 20 day and night is far beyond my ability to comprehend.

 

[RicinYakima]

Had a day of fall rains. Had almost .1 inch and are thankful for it. Irrigation has been off for a month and need some moisture in the ground. Temperature was 60 at midnight and now at 9 PM down to 48 and still falling.

That exceeds my compression ratio by a long measure.

Well we don't generally have wind and it's dry.
Ian I nearly froze when my truck broke down about 20 miles west of Amarillo in a ice storm. I have never been in that kind of danger up here. Of course being "here" automatically makes you prepared.

 

[Rally]

Like September here! Forecast for 56 tomorrow, but that's ok, I've got a couple dams to tear out. Bad part is deer season starts Saturday, and those kind of temps mean folks need to get their deer to a freezer pretty quick.

 

[Glaciers]

Woke up at 3:30 to having all of the outdoor motion lights on around the house and the shop as well. We have lights everywhere so you won't be surprised by a moose. It is snowing so hard the lights won't turn off.
Anyway the prediction was 4" by tonight. We had by that by 1:30 in the morning. It's now 4:30 and we have 7" without letting up. The new version by the weather guessers is 10" by 6PM tonight. At the current rate we will have that mush by 7 or 8 in the morning. Glad I have a new grain scoop and 32" Honda snowblower.

Ya but, it does really cool off nice startin' but 4 pm. I wouldn't be too worried with a skun out deer hanging under the leanto. Let it chill over night, cut it up the next day or two. My bigger problem with our later opener in Wisconsin is the carcass freezing over night making it harder to cut up and painfully cold on my hands.

Lots of people have found themselves in that exact predicament in that area. Had friends in Whitedeer, they said everyone there carries a tow strap, blankets, and a jar of peanut butter in the trunk in winter.

A service manager friend from years ago told of driving to Texas from the Denver airport st night in a rented car with his pregnant wife in a blizzard, coming across the lava fields of NE New Mexico headed for Dalhart and suddenly the hit the Texas border.....literally. Turns out Texas doesn't own a snowplow in that area and the highway had been plowed to the state line by NM highway department and they made a U-turn which built up a snow/slush shelf that froze solid over a foot high that night. Brick wall at 50 mph, tore the bottom off the radiator. It was later the next afternoon before they got help.

Drivers have different skill sets, depending upon where they live or grew up.

Always interesting to go to the beach and watch the people with rental cars watch them sink into the sand. Sometimes they come back up after a couple of winter storms.

The first rain in the last six months made a 7:00 p.m. cameo. It was just enough to make it look and smell like it rained, but .10" is scheduled for overnight.
