The Weather.

It's pouring rain today. Very gloomy. I need sun...and spring.

Horrible horrible rain. I wish it was cold enough for it to snow but it’s an unseasonable 50 degrees. Blech. Disgusting.

I agree. It's a wretched day. I loathe rain when it's cold. It's so raw and nasty. I'd much rather have snow, but I suppose if we had it today, we'd have 3 feet!

It has warmed up to normal temperatures now which is the 70's. It is going to rain and bring in a "minor" cold front and the temps will drop to the 60's.

Horrid thunderstorms last night with what sounded like a strike !
Today started kinda warm and I wore my light jacket. By the time I got out work it was sleeting and windy and back in the 20's.
Tomorrow teens and snow, by friday back to 50's

 

[PTree15]

Back to the cold, but at least the sun is shining.

 

[shyvas]

Rain for the next 48 hours.

I need some snow to make me feel better.

The wind will not stop blowing! I hate it! It is not supposed to be windy like this here. Where I grew up, on the plains of the midwest, it was windy ALL the time. Florida was such a relief being much calmer. I don't know what happened! Damn climate change I guess.

Sunny, breezy, mid-40s, the air smells fantastic.... For January in Michigan, today is freaking gorgeous!!

 

[PTree15]

We had snow overnight, just a couple of inches, but it was enough for my neighbor to bust out the snowblower. I think he really likes that toy.
It's very cold. The wind is biting as well.

 

[KLS52]

We got an inch but it was very a very wet, heavy, icy mess Not good snow so it doesn’t count, haha.

^ Ooh snow!

It's just raining here.

 

[KLS52]

I’m giving up for this winter. I know we still have a good few weeks left of Winter but I can see the pattern of all of the cold days being dry and then as soon as some moisture creeps in the temps rise. It can literally be cold and dry on a Monday, warm up Tuesday with rain, and then be cold again on Wednesday. If I get lucky with one more real snowfall, not the mess we just had, I’ll consider myself lucky. But I’d rather throw in the towel now and not be disappointed. That way if I do get more winter I will be pleasantly surprised.

The bigger frustration is we haven’t had a good Spring in a few years. It stays unseasonably cool through May, for the most part. It’s just yucky. So I won’t be happy again until Summer, lol.

 

[KLS52]

I rest my case.

 

[KLS52]

I am officially banning myself from this thread until June 1, unless I get 4” or more of fluffy white snow that lasts longer than 24 hours. Goodbye cruel world.

 

[PTree15]

Ice and snow. Not a good combination. The roads are a mess.

 

[Moll Flanders]

Very cold and frosty.
