Title: How is the weather in your area ?
Post by: theman on October 04, 2012, 02:02:10 PM
I live in the Black Hills of South Dakota.  The other day it was 86 degrees.  Today is 37.  What a difference a day makes  ;D.  We have really been going through a dry time.  no snow last winter and very little rain this spring and summer.  We are hoping to get alot of snow this winter I sure would like to do some ice fishing this year.

Had a cold day yesterday got down to 28 last night.  There has been quite abit of snow in the higher hills so the skiers, snowmobilers, are getting excited.  This morning I woke up and made my coffee looked out the window and it was white a very light dusting it sure was pretty.  Two hours later the sun was out and with in a few minutes snow was gone.  The temp at this time is 45 degrees and feels like 25.  The trees are beautiful at this time but will be losing their leaves now with the freeze.  Have a great day guys.

Here in wonderful Northeastern Washington, we have gone from being near 90* a couple weeks back to being in the upper 40's for highs. A couple nights back it got down to 14* at night. Doing farm chores is never fun in the cold but I must say, I much prefer the cold to the heat. We had a wet summer here but now a dry fall which throws a kink in our fall plans- we always have a huge fall bonfire (the non-alcohol party type) but I don't want to risk it with as dry as it has been and all the wildfires in the central part of the state

I went to a show in Salem Oregon this weekend and was surprised at how cold it was over there. They had palm trees and banana plants everywhere but it was under 60 the whole weekend we were there. We got home on Sunday and it was 70 and rainy. We have been stuck in a mini- drought all summer, been a couple months without rain here on our side of the state so it is welcomed. Today it is very windy and only supposed to get to 57 with scattered rain. I am ready for snow already!

Yesterday was a day to behold.  This morning in our local paper it had a picture of 4 semi trailers laying down on there sides in a row they looked like domino's wind gusts of 81 mph.  Falling trees, rocks, etc.in the Hills. 

This was a bad hair day for alot of people , and I bet that many have turned SLY today.

Today in the city as I was driving home (takes me about an hour to drive from work to home) it was pouring rain so hard that my clothes were soaked by the time I ran from my car into the gas station which was about 20' away. Then on the highway, it was still pouring rain but with very strong winds. By the time I got about half way home, the rain was gone but the wind was still going strong. By the time I got home, no sign of rain but with nasty wind. As I sit here typing, I can't hear the TV because the rain followed me home and is deafening but amazingly peaceful. They say we might get snow this week out here in the sticks, I am rather excited

 By the way theman, I am glad you decided to stay

It's a magnificent fall day here - very sunny and mild.

For anyone who is interested, the earth will be moving through the remnants of the tail of Halley's Comet tonight, so we'll be able to see a huge meteor shower - something like 25 to 30 an hour.  Best time is between midnight and 6:00AM.

I have some exciting (to me) weather news today. I was at work all day and the rain was the huge drops that almost hurt because they hit with such force. But today once I got past the city and highway and the town, I started to smell a great smell in the air and feel a great feeling in the crispness of the air. As soon as I got past the 'snow belt' that is about 1/2 mile south of us, I saw it! Falling in huge flakes, gently floating down and coating the ground quickly was the snow. It lasted for about an hour after I got home and coated the ground lightly but I watched it the whole time. I will be going to bed content, even though it will be melted by morning

Figured I'd post here. It started snowing last night when I was at work. By 9 pm we had enough to make a mini snowman and have a snowball fight in the parking lot. All the way home I was driving around 50 since it was coming down so hard and it seems like everyone that sped past ended up spinning out. I just got up and it is still snowing, looks like we have about 4 inches.
 I said I wanted it to snow, I just didn't think it would snow so much. I should have listened to the voice in my head that told me to put snow tires on over the weekend

Thanks Mike ,

Today it is 30 degrees here and thick fog, gentle mist.  We are suppose to get some of the white stuff, starting to night and all day tomorrow.  Sure hope we do and it is really wet.  And stays long enough to sink into the ground.  The ground is so hard here that it will take alot to sink in.  Fire danger is still high.
North Dakota has storm warnings out.  We also will be getting a strong wind.

Sounds like you have a good snow going there Mike.  Be safe the way some of these people drive you are taking your life in your hands.  They are crazy.

But I agree , all trees,and bush's , had frost on them and it really is pretty.  Winter wonderland !  LOL

It was very wet snow today. Folks were doing a decent job of driving on the highway until I got closer to town, then the bad drivers started showing up. Tonight when I got home, the driveway was a hassel to get up. Since the snow was wet I had to take a few tries at making it. Our driveway is about as long as a city block, so getting stuck at the bottom is never fun
 I am a cold weather person so I do enjoy the cold much more than the heat. Like today when it was around 28, I just had jeans and a tshirt on and was perfectly comfortable.

It will start snowing here in about a month and stick around until about March next year.  I hate having to dig out cars in the morning, did out the front of the garage again to get car back in...

We might get a snowfall here in January. Everything will be closed for a day or two until it melts. then the daffodils will start blooming the next day and we will be ready for spring. If we get 1 or 2 days of snow a winter we've had a bunch. Flowers are still blooming here in North Carolina, and 60's in the afternoons.

As Lynchy said it is bloody hot and unfortunately the wind is building up so all the devastating bushfires throughout Australia are taking ages to get under control.  Two years ago it was floods and already another hurricane is brewing off Western Australia.  Despite all that Australia is a great place to live - and be sly.

Feels like perpetual spring here in Boston––relatively warm, but not warm enough that you can't go out without at least packing some thin gloves in your pockets. And the days are still really short. The worst type of weather. Can't wait for summer, beers, and baseball season.

I also enjoy the weather.  The big blizzard that they had named and all only dropped about 2" made the roads mighty slippery .  Wind did blow and temps did drop to - 8 as of the time I am writing this.   :(  Hope fully we will get some moisture as the farmers, ranchers, and much of the money comes from this in my area.   And we are not the only ones , there are many states.

The fog didn't clear until about 2 PM yesterday afternoon and it rolled right back in last night. My 60 mile drive to work this AM was slow because the fog is so thick.

It's a brisk 11 (F) here, the high will plunge to 30. Happily, we've no wind-unusual for us-or we'd be easily in the minus numbers. On the other hand, a friend called from Melbourne-they're attending the Australian Open-and said it was so hot, it was discreetly suggested that unless you carried water-not spirits-salt tabs, hats, fans, loose fitting clothing etc. that you may wish to find other diversions. Such as go sea bathing, look for sharks-not all of whom will be wearing white and holding racquets.

I was as a Boy Scout winter Klondike camporee this weekend. It was UNSEASONABLLY warm. We got there on Friday night and the low was in the 40's. On Saturday, it got up to the low 70's. There were scouts in shorts and kilts at a winter campout. Saturday night it was in the low 50's. All in all, not bad weather for a winter camping event.

Sunny and 11 above  ;D heat wave coming in .   8)  Think I am going to move to another area.  Don't mind the cold if the snow is coming.  Don't mind the rain even if and when I rode my Harley.   Oh well as said Global Warming. 

Mike glad you had a great scouting camp out.  Improvise, Adapt and Overcome !   ;D 

Still goes back to enjoy everyday as it comes, and deal with it and have some fun.  O0

Here in Southern Illinois it is 24F degrees outside.  We got some rain mixed with sleet yesterday.  I read by the calendar that Spring is only about 70 days away with the changing of the time about a week or 2 before that.  I am tired of this cold weather.  But we can't change Father Nature!

It would probably be rude of me to bask in our sunshine and afternoons in the low 80s (yes, this is January) here in Central Florida.

Yeah, that would be rude.

I'm definitely ashamed of myself.

On the Australian mainland there has been a bit of a heatwave. I heard on the TV yesterday morning that in Moomba, South Australia on Saturday 12 Jan 2013 the temperature hit 49.6C which is 121.3F.

Thank goodness I wasn't anywhere near there -- I would call that temperature unbearable.

Also, I would be disappointed that it didn't go up another 0.4C so that I could say I had been in 50C heat.

Darn it Frontier Guy! You're making me miss Florida! As a northeastern guy, Florida is a great, great escape, and the last two springs I've spent weeks in Orlando and Tampa soaking up some rays with some girlfriends (those were wicked good times ;) ) Though I won't have such luck this spring, I'll be busy in school. :/

I guess it's what you are used to. Celsius always strikes me as more logical

below zero celsius - freezing/ice
100 celsius and above - water boils
anything in between is liquid water

so..

10c - mild
20c - warm
30c - hot
40c - too hot !!

I understand that the UK uses Celsius and you changed your currency to decimal but according to UK police reality shows it seems that the UK still uses miles/h instead of kilometer/h -- what happened? I can understand the US or anywhere else not wanting to change but going half-way with Le Système international d'unités -- that's odd. Unless I've got it wrong?

And I hear about Global Warming, and also read items.   O:O ~!

We had a really nice weekend, and the days following. Up north however they've had ex-tropical cyclones turning into low pressure systems and wrecking havoc on the North east to central coast. With major flooding and even word of tornados which is so very rare in Australia.

I saw some of that on the telly, we have been getting some snow here and it is good and wet.  But the temps are going down to -5 tonight.  Today the sun was shinning and it was snowing lightly really kind of nice.  Think I will stick with our weather over your Beardman.  Be safe .

Last week at this time it was 12 degrees F. Yesterday it was 68 degrees F with torrential rain. More temperatures in the high 60's today and then tomorrow it's back to Winter with daytime temperatures around the freezing mark.

Yeah here similar to Mikekoz... freezing freezing freezing then 65 f now cooling down again.  Very humid but only a little drizzle. 

Day 12 sly and I've only been able to go out maybe 5 times without a hat without freezing to death and all those times I ended up getting rained/snowed on.  Let's get it together, east coast weather!
