it's a winter storm!
 
tell me...what's your weather like right now?

jacinda 02-26-2013 09:17 PM

We have a lovely warm summers day here. Thankfully it's not as hot as it was yesterday. Yesterday made me VERY thankful to have air conditioning in the car! :D

hollyxann 02-26-2013 09:18 PM

Cold and rainy and icky!!! I believe its supposed to snow tomorrow. I'm ready for spring.

emmasmommy 02-26-2013 09:20 PM

we were supposed to have a 'winter storm.' yes, it has been snowing all day, but it's like, slushy, icky snow. so disappointing.

eranslow 02-26-2013 09:24 PM

Well we weren't suppose to get dumped on - but the weather did something funky (seriously that is what they said on the news!) and we could be up to 9 inches by the time this storm cell is done. The drive to drop off Blake at school this morning was so slow! They usually pre-treat the roads here before storms - but since they thought we were going to be missed, they didn't. So it's pretty crappy out there. So glad I'm inside with my boys :)

mariewilcox 02-26-2013 09:25 PM

It's been in the low 40s and sunny here for the past couple days. We're due to get your storm on Thursday though :thumbdown: Could you just keep it please? :D

NatalieKW 02-26-2013 09:26 PM

It was chilly this morning but my kids were playing outside by the late afternoon. :)

this. but probably not enough for a delay or snow day. which i desperately need. (nevermind that I only worked two days last week. that didn't count. luke had the flu. lol)

rach3975 02-26-2013 09:27 PM

It has been rainy all day. Why couldn't it have been a little colder-then we could finally be getting snow instead of more rain!

alinalove 02-26-2013 09:46 PM

it's dry and not below zero anymore. this weekend is said to become warmer. like the first signs of spring. oh how i long for that.

Laura_A 02-26-2013 09:50 PM

It's cold and icy here and it tried to snow but we're usually in this pocket where everyone around us gets dumped on and we're lucky to see a dusting. I think it's supposed to get up to almost 60 over the weekend...Colorado has the craziest weather...at least the sun is almost always shining.

NeverendingJen 02-26-2013 09:58 PM

it's super windy...I feel like we've been under wind watches for a week straight. ugh

dailydwellin 02-26-2013 10:01 PM

^^ What Jen said! Windy and the only winter storms here are sand storms...ick!

nun69 02-26-2013 10:08 PM

just completely overcast here today, but yesterday we had lots of rain and high winds and actually lost power at work and even our generator didn't come on!

BrattyMeg 02-26-2013 10:25 PM

just cold and rainy here..blech worst weather for my mood!

haydensmommy217 02-26-2013 10:31 PM

it has been a sunny day today mid 50's lol wasnt that cold at all

k23m 02-26-2013 10:34 PM

we got a dump of snow (again) last night, but I'm ok with it because it isnt minus two million degrees outside. Actually me and the kids went out after lunch for over an hour...I shoveled, they played.

My 3yr old went to sleep in 20 minutes tonight though...WOOT! LOL

~Cindy~ 02-26-2013 10:57 PM

I swear it has been raining here off and on for a month! It's driving me nuts. If it isn't raining then its cold. Southern cold not north cold lol! Then when its raining its warm.

nesser1981 02-26-2013 11:04 PM

Nasty & sloppy here, they already called a snow day for tomorrow

MamaBee 02-26-2013 11:11 PM

I'm at the northern tip of your storm, Laura... so we are only suppose to get lake effect - which I live far enough away from Lake Michigan that we are suppose to only get like 4 inches... but the winds are horrible... we have 40+MPH winds since this afternoon and they say they are to continue into tomorrow... brrr... so ready for spring!

Melissa Bennett 02-26-2013 11:17 PM

rain, rain and more rain. Did I mention rain?? LOL!! We have had our wettest February on record here and my yard shows it.

lorigaud 02-26-2013 11:39 PM

I'm a bit south of Marie here in Maine. We are supposed to get another 3-6 inches in my area tomorrow into Thursday... this is after the 10 inches on Sunday and the 30 inches a couple of weeks ago. ENOUGH snow already! (At least I might get a snow day out of Thursday.... *fingers crossed*)

MandaT 02-26-2013 11:41 PM

It was sunny and around 50 today. Looks like it'll be decent for the next couple of days, maybe some rain this weekend. Waiting for 'pretend' spring to retreat and the snow to come back, it seems to happen like that every year.

Last week we had a couple days of waking up to snow and by noon it was all melted and sunny.

carriesmom 02-26-2013 11:55 PM

Cold, sunny and windy. I hate it. Leads me into a false sense of security.

sigh...gotta love the red dirt blizzards.

Traci Reed 02-27-2013 01:17 AM

Sunny and 68 here :)

mrshobbes 02-27-2013 01:22 AM

Just got past some random rainy days so we're back to sunny and smoggy here :)

I was just going to say....we have pretty nice weather :)

Nixenkind 02-27-2013 06:18 AM

The snow is melting, so it's pretty muddy here in Northern Germany... well above zero. I just want spring, I'm so fed up with gray and cold... but it usually takes LONG in our part of the country :(...

Lindsay 02-27-2013 09:37 AM

Four Snow Days and 21 inches of snow later, I get to go back to work today. For Kansas, this is record snows. We've had a very dry winter.

Stacey42 02-27-2013 10:45 AM

Freezing rain with a high of 36 yesterday and sunny with a high of 58 today. Grey and in the mid 40s the rest of the week.

Makes no sense at all

glumirk 02-27-2013 11:10 AM

If this slush turns into snow accumulation we'll be going on the 2nd snowiest February in recorded history. It's wet and slushy outside, and it's supposed to be like this for awhile.

Nettio 02-27-2013 11:26 AM

It's sunny but cool and windy here, supposed to be in the 60s all week. We had 30-40 mile an hour winds on Monday, it was crazy. I had to rescue our giant barbecue cover and practically got blown over in the process, haha.

haha. sounds like the el paso winds finally made it to you. our grill was spinning in a circle earlier in the week

eranslow 02-27-2013 11:29 AM

We are at 8 inches right now - with an additional 2-3 possible this morning. And they were forecasting that we would only get a dusting! Boy were they wrong!!

Well thank you for that, we're apparently supposed to have 30 mph winds today too. :p Lucky Adam, he's in the field all this week. He came home Monday saying his face hurt from being battered by the wind all day, haha.

maryinaz 02-27-2013 11:46 AM

Bright and sunny here as usual. High about 72 today. It will be in the 80s by the weekend.

we've had them for a week straight now I think, the sustained 30 MPH with gusts of 50 MPH. it's been NUTS. I've had to vacuum and mop in front of all the doors every day because of how much dirt is blowing in.

SweetMelissa 02-27-2013 12:14 PM

Its 71 degrees here and its suppose to rain on and off all day.

coopert 02-27-2013 02:52 PM

Finally nice weather in the low 70's. The way it's supposed to be in Southern California.

LOL - My sister is in Oceanside and it's been colder there some days than it was here in New England! It's been a crazy winter everywhere!

Keely~B 02-27-2013 06:20 PM

It's sunny and mid-60's but the wind has been off and on out of control. We've got limbs and trees down, shingles flying and bricks even blew off a building. For us it's more worrisome that we'll have fires. I hear that this latest winter storm might delay the delivery of my new laptop.um Um, unacceptable.

Sherri Tierney 02-27-2013 06:28 PM

Yesterday we had a snow day. Today it is pretty much all melted off. The streets were clear by 7am but the electricity was flickering and we had two schools in the district set to start state assessments yesterday so that played into why they called school since the kids do their assessments on computers and you can't have them going out during a test!

kscwgirl 02-28-2013 12:04 AM

4 snow days in the last two weeks and a total of 18 inches of snow. I'm over it. :blink:
