So Dang Cold!!!

[Gina]

It turned cold yesterday, very windy and cold. Today it is 28 degrees and it has started snowing this afternoon and its turning to ice. The weather report is telling all to stay in if you don't have to go out.. I HATE THIS WEATHER.. It was nearly 70 degrees last week and looked like Spring was around the corner... Boy were we fooled...lol I hope everyone stays warm and safe...


Marilyn, Im jealous go out and enjoy the sunshine for me

It's interesting learning about the different places. thanks for sharing ladies I do enjoy it.

That IS hot but I've never known it to get that hot. We usually have several days over 100* and once in a while it might get up to 110* but not often. I can't image how they made it when it was so hot because they didn't have airconditioning then. Whew!!!!!!

The lowest recorded temperature where I live was 9 deg. I think the year was 1988.

The highest recorded temperature was 111 in September about 2002.

These are extremely rare occurrances for it to get that cold or hot. In an average year, the range is probably around 28 for a low and 102 for a high. The highs are very humid. I'd rather have our hot than the hot in an area like Dallas. I've been there when it was in the high 90's and I don't know what it is, but the hot there is scorching and takes your breath away. The hot here is more tollerable for some reason. You need a head covering though and lots of water. It's unsafe to do hard labor in that heat. Even my husband will shut outdoor jobs down in the heat of the day if it' over 100.

Marilyn, are you trying to make a point?????....ROFLMBO!!!!


It's been really crappy here the last few days. Snow, ice, slick roads, not being able to keep ice off the windshield of the bus. I think just about everyone I come in contact with says the same thing.....is spring ever going to get here? Makes me feel better that I'm not the only one losing patience with the weather.

[Tink]

I think most years by the time Febraury comes we are sick of it already.
That's why groundhog day is in Feb... people are really wanting winter to end and soon!

Marilyn - you are really funny on this thread! It is interesting learning about the weather around the country.

Like Gina said, it has been so crazy here the past week. Today was beautifully sunny, but cold (like high 30's).

Here's a little touch of Spring.

[Janet]

We're in the 30's today and the sun is shining a bit. We only have 1/2 a day of school, so I'm hoping my son will go for a walk with me. I need to get outside some.

[judy]

Yesterday was sunny, but cold. I was looking forward to taking the dogs in the car and just going somewhere for a walk with them today, but it is so gloomy out that I'm not even going out in it.

I need sunshine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Tink]

It's lightly snowing and 32 degrees here right now.
Over the next few days we're supposed to have more snow and temps around zero.
February can't get over too soon for me! I really am tired of it and want to be able to sit out in the yard and open my windows!

[Janet]

It was in the low 50's here today, but it rained all day. I did open the kitchen windows to let some fresh air in...it was so nice. The temp is suppose to drop again so who knows.

I'm so afraid if this keeps up, spring will be cancelled. Tell me it won't happen!

[Gina]

It is cold here to about 40 and suppose to rain heavily tonight into tomorrow. I hate this weather already!!! I want the Spring to get here quickly...

[Marilyn]

Come join me!!!! I posted these in another thread. It was 74 deg this afternoon and beautiful. A friend has been bugging me to go walk in the park with her so I called her this afternoon, and she has a bad cold!! I was so looking forward to going, but it's not safe to go alone.

These were in my front and back yards. When I put the dogs out, they did not want to come back in. They wanted to soak up the sunshine!!

Wish you could have all been here so we could have gone on that walk!!!!

[DianaB]

Since Saturday we've had a wet mushy snow and ice, been in a flood watch (with heavy rain), had the sun come out and melt the snow and this evening it's snowing again!!! All in 3 days!!! It's been crazy here!!!
