The Weather.

This is how I torture myself all winter long, by checking the long range forecast and trying not to get excited.

It feels really cold today!

London and South East England
Forecast Summary
  • Today
    Very cold and generally cloudy with mist and fog patches. Some brightness is possible. Many inland eastern areas will struggle to rise above freezing, the best temperatures near Hampshire coasts. Brisk winds inland, but strong on coasts.
 
Jeepers, it got chilly!! :eek: Extremely breezy, too... although, I don't think the wind can decide on a direction... nothing but madly swirling flurries everywhere.

I hope to get back to Jer's around 4PM... wanna get those heaters back on. At least the kitties have warm, new blankies. :)
 
The wind-chill is supposed to be in the single digits tonight. Jer's house was comfortable when I left at noon, but I'm gonna do the same drill as this past week since he had to go do more work on the set at school... I turned off heater upstairs, in downstairs hall, & in basement before I left... I need to get back before dark to turn 'em on again. Cripes, his electric bill is gonna be through the friggin' roof! He's just hoping his (unused) gas bill will balance out. :confused:
 
It's cold again! I keep the thermostat at 64 on weekends and usually up it when I'm home. Today I've been home since noon and after turning it up once it reverted to it's set of 64. I've been under a blanket on the couch most of day, with something like a migraine and being cold hasn't helped.
My electric bills are between 70 and 90 monthly year round. My gas is on budget billing at 45. I know when my son runs the space heater downstairs it's as high as a hot August air conditioning bill
 
Winter temps in the 30's the next few days so that's good at least.
 
Very blustery and cold today. We did see the sun for a bit, but not for very long.
 
It's snowing. We are supposed to get 3 inches or so. It was enough that we got let out of work early, mostly because of the timing of the storm, so I am home sitting in my nice warm apartment after a long drive (slow going with slick roads). :) KLS, are you getting any snow? Any time it snows, I always think of you. :)
 
Gentle snow last night & today, snowing again now... hardly any breeze... sky still gray, but that flat gray background made it easy to spot the hawk soaring overhead.... and the snow on the ground reflects what light there is so the house didn't seem nearly as gloomy as it has the last couple weeks.

I got a bit...maybe an inch. I'd rather have three, though, haha. Thanks for thinking of me!

Second "storm" coming Tuesday that will end up being rain because the temps will be unseasonably warm. I feel so cheated this year. Like, literally cheated. Like, someone took something from me that was supposed to be mine...like, totally. Lol.
