Minus five at six thirty. Now at seven fifty it is minus seven.
Snow blowing around but not falling. Hope it doesn't get worse.

Not quite as cold as yesterday AM -12, wind chill -40
Still in blizzard warning. Travel not advised. Lots of stuff closed.

-9 in Grant County Indiana, maybe an inch of snow which is a plus. I hate winter!

We're up to 12 degrees now with a wind chill of -4. High for the day is around 25.

-1.7 on homers weather station,phone said -4, wind chill 18 below sez the TV weather dude. Looks to be a couple of inches, maybe.

Warming up here -5, heading in a good direction.

19° here in Alexandria, sweltering compared to some of you guys. Early this morning, the wind blew the Christmas tree over in Cumberland. They had to cut it up and haul it away. Also a shot from my sister walking the dogs this morning.

This was our temp while camping here in west central FLA Sat morning. A first!!

The Christmas Tree pic is newsworthy, but that pic with the dogs is really special. What a beautiful scene, Currier & Ives like!

Well it wasn't a white Christmas for us but it was a good one.
Starting out at 28* and looking for a high of 54* with partly cloudy skies.

My sister took that picture, Ike. I'll pass along your complement.

54° F, sunny. 12 mph NNW wind makes it feel cooler though.

12-16 inches of snow here on the upper plains over the last 24hrs. Airport closed, Interstates closed, schools closed. Wind is to pick up overnight.

Sioux Falls. Good luck on your flight.

We currently have a break in the storms - it has been pretty wild here, and it ain't over yet! We have actually been quite fortunate, we have only gotten 4 inches of rain in the last couple of days. Some of the neighboring communities have gotten as much as 15 inches of rain!!

Our beach is really torn-up. I can't even imagine how much sand has been moved in the last week. There are supposed to again be big waves tonight, possibly 15 ft or more.

Here is what our beach normally looks like:


And here is what it looks like now:

Mid 30's today in Grant County Indiana but I doubt it will stay this way long.

No rain here, none forecast in the next 10 days. Today was beautiful - high temp was 77, supposed to be 80 tomorrow. Then back to the 50s.

It sure is! Hope the wacky weather is soon a thing of the past.

The predicted high in my neck of the woods today is 43. I will gladly and unhesitatingly trade you. In seriousness, I hope you see some rain if it's needed.

Right now it's 45* and going to 57* later with some sunshine. Tomorrow things are going to change with sleet and snow through Saturday.

I didn't think I would see it this year but There Be Snow in North Texas!
It won't stick though, it's 37 degrees and the ground is not frozen.

I wasn't entirely accurate, it's sticking now.

Ground (and other surfaces) was covered here too David. It was melting, but coming down in great big flakes faster than it was melting. It was all melted and gone here by daybreak. I don’t think the temperature ever got below about 34 degrees. Our niece says they got about 6 inches of snow in Lubbock though.
