papsrus Posted October 31, 2008 Report Posted October 31, 2008 Was nice and cool for a couple of days. Fall-like. Had a low in the 40s the other night. It'll be back up in the 80s tomorrow. And so it goes. Quote
AndrewHill Posted November 10, 2008 Report Posted November 10, 2008 We got his with a "surprise" lake-effect snow storm today which dumped about 4 inches of snow in some regions. Temps are still hovering in the 20's Quote
AndrewHill Posted November 16, 2008 Report Posted November 16, 2008 Cold front blowing through dumping significant amounts of rain, and now its turing to snow. At noon it was 73 degrees, now it below 30! Quote
AndrewHill Posted December 9, 2008 Report Posted December 9, 2008 More weird weather. Today its nearly 50 degrees, with gusty winds and rain. Quote
Shawn Posted December 10, 2008 Report Posted December 10, 2008 It's snowing & sleeting in Austin! ...and it was in the 70's earlier today. Quote
Jazzmoose Posted December 10, 2008 Report Posted December 10, 2008 I give up; what's a gritter? Quote
sidewinder Posted December 10, 2008 Report Posted December 10, 2008 (edited) I give up; what's a gritter? One of those salt and sand spraying vehicles? They've been pretty busy here of late. Didn't stop me nearly hitting an insane small bulldog that appeared from nowhere out of a hedge yesterday. Missed by about an inch (the damn thing just stood there in the road whilst I wizzed past frantically trying to miss it on the black ice. Then the pooch started yapping and chasing me when I drove off !! Edited December 10, 2008 by sidewinder Quote
AndrewHill Posted December 11, 2008 Report Posted December 11, 2008 It's snowing & sleeting in Austin! ...and it was in the 70's earlier today. Now that sounds like Ohio weather Quote
kinuta Posted December 11, 2008 Report Posted December 11, 2008 Very mild, no need for a jacket although lots of people are in full 'Nanook Of The North' kit. Quote
Aggie87 Posted December 11, 2008 Report Posted December 11, 2008 (edited) Going to be 29 degrees tomorrow morning here! You'd think this is Muskegon or something! edit - it snowed in both Houston and San Antonio today, too. Weird stuff! Edited December 11, 2008 by Aggie87 Quote
paul secor Posted December 11, 2008 Report Posted December 11, 2008 Rain & just cold enough to be nasty. Quote
Jazzmoose Posted December 13, 2008 Report Posted December 13, 2008 Our first snow in the Grande Ronde valley began last night. The surrounding mountains have had their share already, but this is the first day I'll have to actually drive in it. What a joy for a California transplant... Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted December 13, 2008 Report Posted December 13, 2008 Rained all day. Cold too. Mid-week it was crisp and crystal blue - had to watch it from a classroom window. If only this government would get the weather syncronised correctly. Quote
Jazzmoose Posted December 14, 2008 Report Posted December 14, 2008 ...but this is the first day I'll have to actually drive in it. Okay, that didn't work out too well, but the tow truck didn't seem to have much trouble pulling my van out of the farmer's field. I must admit, my snow driving has been mostly theoretical, and I really hadn't considered what the options were when a car was coming straight at you in your lane. Idiot. Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted December 14, 2008 Report Posted December 14, 2008 Shit! Glad to hear you're OK, Moose. MG Quote
Jazzmoose Posted December 18, 2008 Report Posted December 18, 2008 One thing I'll never understand about this area... I just checked the coming week's forecast. On Saturday, the high is supposed to be 6 (-14 for you sensible areas, if I remember my conversions right!). The low Saturday night is supposed to be 6. How the heck do they pull that off??? Are they trying to tell me that it's going to be amazingly dark on Saturday? Quote
Chas Posted December 18, 2008 Report Posted December 18, 2008 Are they trying to tell me that it's going to be amazingly dark on Saturday? All-day darkness = not a problem Approaching asteroid causing all-day darkness = PROBLEM Quote

catesta Posted December 18, 2008 Report Posted December 18, 2008 Shit! My payroll is stuck in Spokane. That always makes for a fun payday announcement for those that do not have direct deposit. Quote
Free For All Posted December 18, 2008 Report Posted December 18, 2008 Nearly 80 here. First time I've ever worn shorts on December 18th (and no, I'm not referring to underwear ). Quote
sidewinder Posted December 19, 2008 Report Posted December 19, 2008 Incredibly clear conditions out the back of my place this morning.. Quote
Joe G Posted December 19, 2008 Report Posted December 19, 2008 Nice pic! Snowing like hell here! Quote
carnivore Posted December 19, 2008 Report Posted December 19, 2008 Like something out of Edgar Allen Poe Quote
