Winter is here!

[arivecchi]

Chicago checking in here @ 16 degrees.

What is it like in your neck of the woods?

[elephantmeg]

brr. It's 30ish here and that's cold enough. This is why we don't visit my bro and SIL at Christmas. They're always warm when they come here, lol!

[christiedavid3]

58 here in south Florida...this is COOOOOOLLLLDDDD for us!

[o_mom]

16 sounds positively balmy. :) It was 4 deg here at bus time, now up to 10 - I'm trying to decide if I send the kids out now to play or wait a few more degrees.

[danagee]

35 degrees Durham, NC

[AnnieW625]

I think the high today is 65, the high tomorrow will be 72.

[Twoboos]

Amazingly still have some patches of snow on the ground! 36 at my house. :)

[elektra]

High of 69 here,it's 59 right now. Last night around 11:30 we had some crazy (for here) thunderstorms though. All clear now though.

[gcc2k]

In central VA it's in the upper 30s and very windy, so it feels colder.

We got our first dusting Saturday night. Nothing stuck to the street but there was fluffy white snow all over the grass and cars Sunday morning. Love it!

[Smillow]

Shenandoah Valley checking in @ 28 & windy!

[jenfromnj]

Here in northern NJ it's 31 degrees (per my car, so not so official!) and flurrying.

[hellokitty]

We're in the low 20's and going to get a decent amt of snow this wk. I'm really glad I was able to find some boots for DS1 yesterday (and I also bought a size up, b/c I hate having to find boots at the last minute each yr and worry that they will all be sold out). I'm annoyed at DH though for not putting his snow tires on LAST wk, when we got several dustings of snow. That should have been a sign. Now he is complaining that he can't change them b/c all of the salt on his precious car and wheels...

[mikeys_mom]

It was -8C/18F when I woke up and warmed up to -6C/21F by the time I left the house. We also woke up to about 1.5 feet of snow. Kids were thrilled to get on all their winter gear. I can't say I wasn't a wee bit excited to wear my new Blondo boots to work today ;).

The snow took me by surprise for some reason. I haven't even put on my winter tires yet. Thankfully it wasn't slippery and the snow didn't hit everywhere so my commute wasn't bad.

[TwinFoxes]

Unseasonably cold, low thirties, feels like low twenties. Boo hoo! Where's the shivering smilie?

I saw a shot of South Bend on CNN. It looked soooo cold there.

Bitter cold- the wind does NOT help!!

Brrr.

Why did I think you lived in Cali???

[codex57]

55 right now. High of 59, low of 41. Actually, should prolly be 10 degrees colder but there's a rain storm in the area which ups the temperature a lot. Before the storm rolled in, it got below freezing at night. Expect the same once the storm rolls on by.

[tarahsolazy]

Its in the low teens here in Iowa, breezy and light snow flurries.

[jess_g]

I must be getting realy old because its only 30 degrees out and it feels realy cold to me. Its going to be one long winter here for me if I am cold already. -Jessica.

[StantonHyde]

A very balmy 40 degrees the past couple of days. Snow is melting off like crazy and it actually rained this morning!!! I am hoping for at least 30s so we get more snow!!!!!! (Kids are doing a 3 week ski lesson program--started this past Sat. I was happy that the snow was so good this early in the season. I want more though so we can keep going over Christmas break. Plus some good sledding snow down here at 5,500 feet would be very nice!)

[carolinamama]

It has been in the 30"s all day here. That's COLD in our neck of the woods.

[HonoluluMom]

It's 77 degrees here in Honolulu. It was a bit chilly this morning at about 68 degrees. :D

[TwinFoxes]

I hate you ;)

Currently 19°F here in Dayton. Going to be 16° tonight.

[cindys]

Its 35 (feels like 26) and windy here in Ga...The low tonite will be 19...The only thing that would make these temps even better is some snow!!!

I love this kind of weather :D

Cindy
Mama to 3 boys...19, 4 & 2 :heartbeat::heartbeat::heartbeat:

[swissair81]

28 in the D. Going to be 18 tonight. Brrrr.

[MichelleRC]

46 degrees in my backyard in Central FL. Supposed to be 31 tonight. It was 80 last week.

[LexyLou]

64 in SF Bay Area...which is just fine with me. Last week was freezing. It was in the high 30's low 40's in the morning and didn't get warmer than 55. For this area, that's cold.

[artvandalay]

I'm basically Chicago burbs...I think 21 degrees right now. I actually did a bunch of xmas shopping today.. it was chilly but the sun was out and no wind... and that makes all the difference!

[Beth24]

Don't hate me...wore a short sleeve shirt and cropped jeans today in our lovely high sixties/low seventies weather. (I'm in So Cal). If it makes you feel any better it was cold and rainy yesterday...

[gatorsmom]

I think it's like 18 degrees here and has been forever.

[SpaceGal]

In the 20s...with snow forecasted for the next 7 days. I finally learned to use the snowblower!! So I'm ready! Well sorta...I just need a go pair of snow pants/wind pants for the snow...I hate always coming in with pants all icy from outside.

[MontrealMum]

20F here, snow continues. We're gearing up for a traditional Quebec winter, though for us, that's still pretty warm. We've got about 6" on our porch/walk which isn't too bad, except the plows aren't really out much. Not too cold yet, but the plows are typically not well-coordinated for the first big snow so it's a bit of a PITA to get around if you don't have snow tires/AWD. This is all really normal for us in winter...we just have a small period of adjustment when the plows aren't keeping up, and the buses are totally off schedule...

I might post pics later of the BOB or just walking...if I decide to leave my lovely warm cocoon.

DS had a great time shoveling our walk tonight with his little red shovel...we're considering hiring him out to the neighbors :D
