@jaxs mom   Where are you?   It's pointless to discuss weather unless we know where you are. 

It started snowing in Albuquerque about noon today and is expected to continue all night and well into tomorrow.   Windy and bitterly cold.   The worst of it is supposed to be in Eastern NM,  namely Tucumcari,  Roswell,  Santa Rosa and into West Texas.   Up to 2ft of snow predicted for those cities I mentioned.   They're asking people to stay put and off the roads.

Yeah where are u ms. Jaxs

Think Amarillo is suppose to get from 8 to 12.  It changes every time you watch the weather channel.  Haha

I do not envy you! Stay safe in the storm!

Not here in PA- we keep breaking records for warmth! And we had too many days of rain and thick fog. However that is about to change when it gets colder Monday night and they expect ice over night Mon into Tues.

Kachina, I'm basically east of you and south of sharke, in a little town near Lubbock. We're getting pounded with ice pellets now and 40 mph winds. I saw some lightening a couple minutes ago.

Freyja kitty is snuggled up with me scared from the noise and mr Jax is sleeping on the bed. Not sure where the other kitties are. I just hope the power doesn't go out, no fireplace or wood stove.

When say I'm not sure where my other kitties are, they are in the house. They are indoor cats. Oh Thor just showed up, Pinter is probably in the heated cat bed.

I'm in Maryland.  We had the air conditioner running on Christmas Eve.  And, we went to visit family yesterday, and they had the a/c running.

I put it on again today because it's just so muggy, although the temperatures have dropped waaaaay down to the  upper 50's, lol.

@OnlyShopsOnline

hasnt it been crazy? i had the a/c running christmas eve and pretty much all day christmas day. it was so warm with the oven on and all of the burners going. i absolutely HATE this weather this time of the year......i am ready for some COLD!

[jaxs mom]

It was in the 70s about a week ago, now we are almost in single digits with the windchill.

I'm in the Upper Midwest in WI. Part of the state has been affected by snow, and the other part, with a little rain and windy conditions.

We are supposed to be affected by this on Monday into Tuesday, but the weather personnel don't know if we are supposed to get rain, a mix of rain/snow, or snow out of it. It depends on how cold or warm it's supposed to be. I guess we'll find out then.

It has been warmer than normal for us, too, with temps. that have been in the 50's and the 40's for us. By this time of the year, we're usually in the 30's.

I don't think they called it a blizzard Thursday, winds not strong enough. I do know we had well over a foot of snow and I am still trying to recover. Think the wind needed 2mph more to reach what these "experts(?)" consider, statistically, to be a blizzard!

@hckynutjohn  Clovis, NM had a wind gust of 83 mph, other places gusts of 50-60mph, is that breezy enough?  Yes, The National Weather Service is describing "blizzard" conditions.
