How's your weather?

It’s a whopping 0° this lovely morning in old Upstate NY :smiley:

I think the frigid cold of Canada is working it’s way down.

My sister lives 20 minutes north of me and they are -11°

It’s been very cold here, but our extended forecast is mid-30s to mid-40s for the next 10 days.

We’ve had Christmas and New Years and a couple of pretty snows, so I am ready for warmer temps and spring.

Just had a cold past few days, but looks like high 40s low 50s for the 10 day forecast. The past several days though it’s been wicked going from mid 60s, even a 72, then plummeting at night to mid 30s. Body shock most definitely.

In Toronto, it’s slowly climbing towards freezing. Somewhat more dicey in the Maritimes.

Winters here in Salt Lake City are monotonous, dreary and, well, unhealthy. It’s not so much the cold (even though it gets quite cold) as it is the constant temperature inversions that trap stagnant air between the mountain ranges. The fog and pollution builds up into a thick gray, sun-blocking haze that lasts through January and most of February. An occasional cold front and snow storm comes through, which blows out the gunk, but it always builds back up within a day or two.

Head up the canyons to the ski resorts, and it’s bright and sunny. I think that’s why so many people here in Salt Lake ski and snowboard — it’s a chance to escape the smoggy air pollution.

Im watching “big love” on hbo and that is the scenery they show every episode, looks nice!

Spring, summer and fall, it’s a beautiful place for a city. Winter, not so much.

Looks like Newfoundland got buried. I’ve seen videos of them digging out from under mountains of snow.

The weather is the weather. Today it was 10°F and the sun was out, with no wind. I’ll take that over snow any day.
The days are getting longer. Because I have a major project due the first week in April, I’m hoping it makes the deep, dark February go fast.

Nothing like a good old fashioned Nor’Easter!

It’s currently 17° and we are being buried. We are under a snow emergency currently. It started last night and we are getting 1 to 3 inches per hour. Oh and it’s also windy and causing white out conditions. It’s quite a winter wonderland out there :wink:

It’s supposed to stop around 1pm after accumulations of 15 to 25 inches :flushed: :fearful:

I can even reach directly out the window and grab a handful. We went from nothing to buried :grin:

It sure is pretty though :heart: Just glad I don’t have to go out in it :wink:

Glad you got it all! We have about 8" at the moment and the wind is perfect for whipping it up into the backyard where I don’t have to shovel it. Still coming down. They called off work but I think I’m gonna have to punch in anyway shortly. Maybe after my morning coffee… LOL!

You sure you live south of Toronto? Here it is around -10º C, with maybe a couple of cm of snow. We consider it a warm day.

It’s supposed to snow here today too, but we’re probably looking at two or three inches, not TWO FEET. It’s going to be a long winter.

February is my least favorite month. Even though the days are getting longer, it always seems so long and dark.

Fantastic!

And better you than me. :smile:

I don’t mind snow, but that much might be different.
