The Wisconsin station said wind chills below zero today, and "warming" to 23. 10 degrees, they said, would be cold for Santa. Isn't it colder at the North Pole?
Every day this week it has been around 60. Until today. I saw one forecast that said it wouldn't even get above freezing, AND it was windy. Teens tonight.
Oh, right. I can look it up online at 6:00. The high was 41. REALLY?
At least the rain wasn't as bad as they said it would be. It didn't rain hardly at all yesterday morning and I got to spend a lot of time outside. Later there was more rain, and even wind. Someone I went to church with as a teenager said on Facebook he lost power. Not a good thing to have happen last night!

It's currently 27 degrees here, the rain we had late last night before bed actually woke me up a bit. We even lost power for about a minute but it came back quickly.

17 Saturday morning and 22 Sunday morning. 41 Saturday afternoon and once again I have to say REALLY? It wasn't that windy but it sure didn't feel like 41.
53 was much better (by the time we had the outdoor church service it wasn't too bad, and I could hear without opening the car door) and it just keeps getting better this week.

It was nice and warm on Tuesday and sunny. It didn't even get up to 60 but out in the sun I could wear short sleeves and no jacket.
Wednesday was very different. 43 was the high and the sun never came out. And it rained later.
Yesterday it looked like it would rain all day but for reasons mentioned on the Tanmi thread it's a good thing it didn't. Once again, warm enough for short sleeves, even if the sun wasn't out. Now it seems to have gotten cold again, and it's still raining off and on.
We are promised a nice warm weekend. Well, warm.

It was supposed to be around 70 both days. 59 on Saturday and then it rained all night. It sure didn't feel like it but the high Sunday was 60. The sun came out for the church service. Several nice days now but a little cooler.

It stopped raining Tuesday but not in time for me to rake.
50 Wednesday but with the sun out that was enough for me to walk with a short sleeve shirt and no jacket. 48 yesterday and while the sun WAS out, it wasn't when I walked. Not too bad even with short sleeves, and one man came outside in a tank top, shorts and flip flops to take out the trash or something.
Today there were many different forecasts. I heard some saying up to two inches of snow. I heard some that didn't even mention snow. A map someone showed on Facebook had me on the line between less than two inches of snow and more than two inches. All I've had so far is rain. I got worried last night because I didn't hear anything and that usually means snow. And the sun came out this morning. I raked and everything. Now the rain has started again and it does seem to be just rain.

Very nice day Sunday, thought the low was 24.
The high both Saturday and Sunday was about 50.
Friday, no frozen precipitation for me thought some people in my area did get it toward the end.
Today was supposed to be another day like Friday. It has been cold and it has rained a little.

It has been in the 50s most of the week. A really nice day Wednesday, and then it was cloudy yesterday morning. The high was supposed to be 57 but it only got up to 51. That was still warm enough for short sleeves once the sun came out.
I was surprised when it rained today. It started out so nice and sunny.
And it gets cold this weekend, but not really cold.

The sun came out eventually Saturday, and then it started snowing. And then the flakes got really big. And then it turned to sleet. And the sun came out again.
Please don't tell me the high was 48. It was COLD! Okay, the wind was blowing but not that hard.
Nice day yesterday but cold again.
It warms up at least a little later this week.

59 Wednesday, which was unexpected because they had said it would get cooler. I was surprised at how warm it was Tuesday when the sun finally came out. It was 59 then too.
Only 57 yesterday but it was cloudy most of the day and some places it appeared to be raining.
Another cold Sunday morning but it warms up in the afternoon. I'm hoping tomorrow will be warmer than last Saturday.
And then it rains, but it gets warmer.

22 degrees, feels like 14.
Snow in the forecast for Monday afternoon with accumulation of 1 to 2 inches.

Please don't tell me it got up into the 50s both Saturday and Sunday. It was COLD outside!
Today it was supposed to rain but it wasn't raining early. I thought I'd get to rake leaves. Then the rain started. Then it stopped. So I raked leaves.
70 tomorrow!
Snow was possible Thursday but with a high of 50 that would have to mean whatever precipitation there was would be late leaving. But I haven't heard a mention of snow lately.

Snow and frigid temperatures. Icy rain, then more snow.

It never got up to 70. In fact it barely made it out of the 40s and the sun didn't even come out. The next day was sunny and 61, but it was supposed to be cold.
The snow forecast for Thursday made sense because it got really cold. I forget the exact number but the precipitation ended before the temperature dropped.
Over the weekend we had another opportunity for frozen precipitation. There was sleet where I live for a few minutes and then it was rain, rain and more rain. The high was 44 Saturday and 40 yesterday.
It does warm up a little later this week.

Not that cold this week but windy. Even though it was 52 Wednesday it was COLD.
54 was promised yesterday but the sun didn't come out much and it was only 49 after a low of 20.
Rain last night but it was over this morning.
Lows in the teens and highs in the 30s were forecast for Monday earlier in the week but that's not happening now.

It was 40 degrees today. The sun was so warm, I was able to handle the recycling without wearing a coat.
Forecast for 5 inches of snow starting Saturday evening through Sunday. Advising people to not drive to or from Superbowl parties.

I don't understand why I'm cold with long sleeves when I go outside when the official high is 53 and it's sunny, but I can go out in short sleeves when the official high is 49 and the sun is not out and be comfortable.
It was supposed to snow Saturday night but it was too warm where I live. Where I used to live there was some snow.
50s all week. Today the high was supposed to be 32. That sure has changed.
The forecast for next weekend: Either highs in the 60s or highs in the 30s and more chance of winter weather.

65 Tuesday and sunny. Almost that warm the next day but not sunny. I got lucky yesterday when it was supposed to rain a lot. That actually happened late in the day. Today, when the rain ends determines what it turns into.
And the next several days have more of the same.

34 cold degrees because there is no sunshine.
The forecasts have been so misleading the meteorologists look embarrassed.

No freezing precipitation here though there's one forecast for it Thursday when we're supposed to get severe weather the same day.
Highs in the 50s the rest of the week, but we've been lucky to get above 40 the past several days (though it hasn't gone below 32), and while there hasn't been that much rain, it always looks like it's about to and drizzle is frequent.

I was surprised when I saw the high Tuesday was 53, because it was nice and warm with the sun out. Not as nice or as warm yesterday but I had flulike symptoms anyway (I hope that doesn't mean what I think it means, but my main concern at this point is being around other people). Today, what type of precipitation depends on the exact temperature. The forecast showed freezing precipitation where I live but that didn't happen. It has just been a rainy cold miserable day and I'm hoping tomorrow will be nice and warm.

It was 14 degrees last night. It is 30 degrees now.
Snow is forecast Monday morning until rain starts around noon. I hope the rain washes the snow away because the neighbor on one side of me never removed the ice that is still in front of his house. He is the only one.

It wasn't as cold over the weekend as I was expecting. 53 on Friday and, even though the sun wasn't out, I was comfortable with short sleeves. everyone else was bundled up.
And yet on Saturday I went out with the sun out just briefly, wearing long sleeves, and I was cold. That was after a low of 26.
It was a little warmer in the morning Sunday but cooler in the afternoon.
It has rained most of the day today but the sun came out. I had enough breaks in the rain to walk without an umbrella and do some raking. I think some areas were supposed to get frozen precipitation.
60s for the next several days.

Not just 60s. 70s. Even when it was supposed to be cloudy and cooler, only it wasn't.
It finally got cooler today. And it started raining but later than it was supposed to. A weather map I see in several of the newspapers I see online showed a low pressure almost directly over my area yesterday, and we were on the cold side of a front. Wrong!
