We've had wind, sleet, freezing rain off and on all day.
I think it's going to snow.

90 F here, don't have a shirt on, wearing walking shorts, running the fan.
And this has been a cooler than normal October for Phoenix . . .

Yea, well, it's rained every day for the past 10 days. I've emptied the rain gauge twice so that's at least 12 ". I've forgotten what the sun looks like.

It's been either raining or snowing for 3 weeks up here. We had a nice fall shaping up. One day, I was wearing shorts. 12 hours later I was looking for a winter jacket. That's how quickly the cold weather came in.

Well, would you look at that. Woke up this morning late after waiting for hogs to show up last night, they never did. Looked outside and not a cloud in the sky. It's a beautiful day. Supposed to get in to the low 60s. Could you ask for more? You could but likely wouldn't get it. :thumbup:

Yesterday mid 60's. Beautiful. Today mid 40's will be the high. And we are scheduled for a ride in the woods on the UTV. Brrrr

I can count on one hand the amount of nice days we've had since mid September. Getting fed up of all the rain. I'd rather have snow. Only went out hunting twice since the season opener Sept 15th.

We're officially into that crap weather between fall and winter. Feels like it hasn't stopped raining since mid September. Weather is going to be a mixture of snow and rain for the next week. Temps hovering around the freezing mark.

They are calling for a bit here in a few days. I don't mind the snow as much as all the salt they saturate the roads with. I can see your road glistening from the saltwater just waiting to cannibalize any automobile that dares to travel through.

Yes. They use this new potent salt that just coats the vehicle. Rust is a neverending battle.

A front came through last night accompanied with the usual storm and even more rain. The high for the day was actually at 6 o'clock this morning. Did I mention it was a cold front. It started off at 44°F this morning and has been going steadily down since then and the wind is blowing at 20 mph. As I write it is down to 30°F and is supposed to be 24°F by morning. For East Texas that is a major "chill". It's supposed to stay cold on Tuesday and then slowly start warming up again. It's going to be darned cold tomorrow when I'm prepping the RV for our trip to the Hill Country starting on Wednesday.

We had a few days of -20 celcius. Sitting at 4" of snow. Just checked the weather forecast and it's calling for RAIN tomorrow. Sheesh. No wonder I could barely walk using 2 canes yesterday.

Got back from the Hill Country. Had 2 cold days, 1 cool day and 2 beautiful days. My wife took the dogs out yesterday afternoon and came back in to tell me there was water running out of the well house. Well, not quite but it seems that with all the rain we've had I forgot to open up the line that runs to the lake and it froze and broke while we were gone. I'll fix it tomorrow … or the next day. Since we've been home it's been beautiful, clear, sunny skies. It gets down to about 40°F in the morning but warms up into the high 50s during the day. Good working weather. Now where to start? It always seems that so much needs doing.

Wtf is happening? It's a week before Christmas and I was just outside for an hour with no jacket. It was +5 celcius earlier. We have about an inch of snow. Normally we would have close to 2 feet of snow and be about -20 Celsius.

Canadian eh!!!

We just got word of a Colorado low heading this way. Starting tomorrow evening into Friday we should be getting 15-25cm of snow. It's about time. We got a dusting yesterday.

It's about time. No snow screws up the whole ecosystem down the road. I hope we get a good dumping. I have a new pair of snowshoes that I want to try. I'd been wanting a set like this for years. I finally get some and can't use them because of the lack of snow.

Remember, I grew up 3 hours north of here where we had twice the amount of snow. Average 3-4 feet of snow by now.

Canadian eh!!!

We're in for a good dumping of snow. That storm is coming pretty much straight north directly at us.
