How's The Weather Out There...

sheepherder · 02-14-2015, 11:06 PM

...In Arizona, Texas, SoCal, and the rest of Occupied Mexico...

It's a balmy 6ºF here, with the temp expected to drop about 10º tonight...

I let the dog out for a quick poop...She's out there...Somewhere...

That's my picnic table in the foreground...

Edward Tinker · 02-14-2015, 11:37 PM

We have had it get colder and colder today - about 2-3 inches of snow this evening - expect more, but not a ton

sheepherder · 02-15-2015, 09:06 AM

According to the Weather Channel, it got down to -5º last night; it was up to -3º and change when I got up. It's -2º now. Tough temps to poop in.

I have 18" of snow on the picnic table; 3" fell last night. I'll have to sno-blow the driveway again...and blow out trails for the dog...

Driving advisory locally; bans in some areas. Tow truck drivers are getting rich this Winter.

No snow this morning but 4 degrees F on the way to breakfast this morning. The car cranked slow but started with no problem.

We Coloradans can't understand all this fuss about a little snow. Let me reassure you, things always look better when the sun comes out!
Here are two views from my kitchen window.

Love all of your pictures! I really miss the snow!!!

drbuster · 02-15-2015, 01:29 PM

Snow is pretty unless you have to travel in it! Those predicted minus (-F) temps for the northeast are scary and dangerous. Global warming at its best!

alvin · 02-15-2015, 01:38 PM

Horrible weather. House is leaking water @multiple places.

lugerholsterrepair · 02-15-2015, 02:06 PM

Yes, I understand..We are bummed out in Az. too! Slightly cloudy today and will only get to 79 degrees. Been there and done that and that's why I am here!Rich..59 degrees INSIDE your house! YIKES!

I have pots & pans in my living room and towels on bathroom floor. 1942-built two story house; not intended for heavy snowfall and see-saw temps...

I knocked down all icicles I could reach; six feet long in some cases.

Only 59ºF at outside wall; thermostat set for 70º. But I could use a second dog tonight...

cirelaw · 02-15-2015, 02:32 PM

Hang in there my friend! Debbys' doll room has a pull out~ Eric

It got warmer...

Can't get at icicles on roof/second floor (can't shovel snow off awning either); up to 61ºF inside now; basement is 55ºF...Don't really feel like working on Luger barrels down there right now...

Still, I am better off than Alvin, weather-wise - He is in Mass, still getting pounded and more to come...

rhuff · 02-15-2015, 03:54 PM

I can't imagine weather like that. I have never lived in that part of the Country. I have been in So. Az. since 1977, and have ZERO plans to ever leave it in an upright position. Yes, we pay for our winters by having to survive the summers, but A/C makes it very tolerable inside, and because I am retired, I only go outside when I just have to(like going to the indoor shooting range, and getting grub). I feel sorry for your dog!!!

Not a lot of extra snow for the Finger Lakes. Not a lot of extra warmth either! Someone wants my help driving a U-Haul to Boston on Tuesday...

lew1 · 02-15-2015, 06:48 PM

One TV station said 6 - 10 inches, but the metro area is 6 - 8 inches and more south of the Ohio River.

Another station said north of Cincinnati 2 - 4 inches. South of the Ohio river - several inches.

Low of 3 to 7 degrees.

(Wednesday and Thursday night -4 degrees each night.)

Both TV stations show pictures of the crowded grocery stores and parking lots as people are buying everything to keep from starving.

I have asked my daughter in PA to come and (1) dig me out and (2) bring me food.

It would be a lot better if the people were not hyped up.

MrHat102 · 02-15-2015, 07:08 PM

Last night, Huntington Bch Ca. About 70 degrees at sunset.

Would love to get out of the place, but our Business is here.

Hope to retire to AZ in about 5yrs

Edward Tinker · 02-15-2015, 07:33 PM

The wind is picking up here - supposed to be icky next 24-36 hrs

Take a bet on whether they have class tomorrow night? I bet its cancelled

Its fairly slick outside and I imagine at 9 degrees will stay that way
