its 930 am here and there are alot of kids that woke upset this morning. The weather was forecasted to get a huge winter storm last night with 5-8 inches along with ice and all that jazz. Well we woke up this morning at 630 with just rain. So the kids all got up ....whinning and stuff cause they had to go to school. at about 715 it started snowing a little bit....with some sleet. Kids waiting at the door for the 730 bus and 730 comes and goes..no bus. Turn radio on...1 hour delay. I was like well piss!....so I go to the gas station to get my stuff for work. Still snowing somewhat..nothing major....on my way back home....School now on a 2 hour delay. Im like what? what for, the roads arent even covered. 5 minutes later...UPDATE......SCHOOL IS NOW CLOSED! Im like well piss!
Walk in the house...told the kids well School is closed. they were all happy and cheering....wife sits there with the saddist look on her face. She has asked for this day off from work over a week ago so she could stay home and get some stuff done around the house. Well that just blew her day all to hell....I look at her...give her a kiss and said...well honey....look at it this way....at least you dont have ME home today with ya's. LOL I was told she didnt want to see me for the rest of the day! LOL....I said well I love you too honey....see ya later...and off to work I went...

Had same thing happen him Tim. Since I do not have a class till our second period I did not need to be at school until 9:30. Darn good thing. Got up and just came in from shoveling at 6:30 when the phone rang to say no school today. Normally I would have been out the door by 6:00 earlier. They didn't make up their mind to close until the last minute. Some folks were already on way to work battling the crummy roads when they got the call on the cell phone. Not complaining, great to have the day off and not have to drive in this mess.

All it takes down here is the threat of snow and the closings start flowing in on the radio and TV stations! Even if it MIGHT snow. Kinda crazy if you ask me.
BTW - Still coming to Milwaukee week of 2/10 - 2/15. Are there any long range forcasts up there? Just wondering what to pack.
Great pic Timm - Are ya'll playing Guitar Hero?

Will be a couple of days before I can get the 10 day for those dates. Can bet it will not be in the 70's though. As soon as forecast comes up I can PM you if you want.

Thanks Paul. I appreciate that. Weather.com has a 10 day, but it is notoriosly wrong! Bet it won't be in the 70's here either. High 50's maybe. Secretly, I am kind of hoping for some snow. We don't get that down here very often.

Current time in Sydney,Australia-9:15am.
Current temperature:29C(88F). Cloudy with a strong chance of rain.
Any chance you midwesterners could perform an Ancient Weather Altering ritual and sent that cold front down under? I'm dying here with all this heat.

If it's winter here in the US then should't it be summer there? If so is your winter in July and August?

Make a ghetto air conditioner with a block of ice and a box fan bro
