Strange Weather

It's only suppose to be 35° today but they are saying 64° for tomorrow with 29° on Sat & 17° on Sun.??????? I will have to see it to believe it tomorrow. I'm wondering if that 6 in the 64 is a typo? They just put 70% chance of snow in the forecast for Sat. It's going to be cold Sat night at 5°.

It's 14 here today, and will be 25 tomorrow. Sat will be 34 ,they say with snow? I thought that was more of a temp for rain.

As usual we will have to take what we get

I can't even imagine that cold anymore. It's been years since we've gone to the snow.

Take care @cherry !

We are "having weather" (for us), but it's not cold - in the 50s. Heavy winds and heavy rain with power outages expected and utility crews on standby.

Well were hovering around 12 right now, but they are talking 50 for Saturday.

I live in Oxnard, CA -- 45 minutes south of Santa Barbara, if anyone is familiar with my area. Today it's been high 50's -- and raining lightly for the last couple of hours (it hardly ever rains here). I'm in my house and feeling VERY COLD. I'm wearing jeans, a stretchy short-sleeve top, over that a v-neck cotton pullover with long sleeves, over that a grey sweatshirt pullover --- and, over that, my 1990's down, nylon warm vest. Can't imagine living where it's REALLY COLD!!!!

I was just watching the news --- and the snowy roads are scary to drive on. Best to stay at home. Sandy

@kivah I have a house in Ventura. I live in Los Angeles. It's raining here now, not hard but anything will help. I feel cold as well. We have the heat on and still I get a chill now and then. I'm home as the commuters drive like maniacs. I could never live in snow country.

We're expected to have some wide swings between the lows and highs where I live, over the next few days. This happens at this time of year. It could be in the 20's in the morning, and the 60's in the afternoon.

It was 6 in my area today and I found out that with the wind factor -25 to -35 below zero. Tomorrow is a heat wave in the 20's and over the weekend one day will be 30 but then back to the teens on Monday. Now it feels like winter. This is the first cold and one with lots of snow winters we have had in a very long time. This is for the Chicago area and suburbs. P.S. When you all talk your weather, please let us know the area you live in.

It's very cold today. But temps are supposed to moderate starting Saturday for most of the country. We'll be 60 by Sunday. This artic blast was not supposed to linger. Those winds are moving fast.

@Puzzle Piece

I bought my house brand new 15 years ago. I only used the heater a couple of times a year --- and then it went out. I called a heating company and they climbed into the attic to check the furnace --- and it needed a "mother-board". I told them to disconnect it. So - I don't have heat. This would have been a time to use it.

So glad the rain picked up last night --- I shut my sprinklers. Yes --- definitely needed.

We've been having, for the first time ever, temps in the 40s and 50s in December (!) and rain.

We did get a bit of snow a little while ago, but it has since broken up.

I never thought I'd see the day of having rain in December. Over all the decades I've lived here it has always been too cold in Dec for rain. But over the past 10 years or so we get less and less winter. Makes me sad.

@Nightowlz

Been that way as far back as I can remember here in Nebraska. Dropping 40° in an hour is not that uncommon. Nothing "strange" here in our little part of our big country.

Well it was 65° & humid with rain yesterday. Today it's 21° & feels like 4°. By the time we wake up in the morning it will be 4° & feel like -11°. It's trying to snow now with it moving in this afternoon.

We had about 3 inches of snow last night and are expecting sleet today. I'd rather stick with the snow. Our temps can drop really fast too
