what's your local weather?

[JD]

It's cooled back down since my last post.
Yesterday was really, really windy, but it calmed down some today.

 

[Pondwater]

Freezey rain.

 

[PlainSimpleJoel]

31C and muggy. Going to be 22c overnight.

Wet. Exceedingly wet. And we need this sort of rain to offset a 14"+ rain deficit thanks to climate change.

 

[HIjol]

40’s and grey rain.
Most certainly NOT typical December weather…

Florida got hit pretty badly.

It's been up into the high 70s the last couple days. It was warm enough yesterday that I was able to go out on a second even bike ride.

 

[Gary Mitchell]

Nice and cool, finally.

 

[JD]

It rained twice today, first while we were driving home with the dogs after we went on our walk, and then again while I was on my bike ride. Both were fairly short and light, when we were heading home with the dogs, it was barely enough to get the windshield wet, and during my bike ride it wasn't even enough to completely soak through my jacket, but it was just enough to get make me turn around and go home.

 

[Random_Spock]

Cold. Tired of it already.

 

[JD]

It rained again yesterday, which is weird because it wasn't supposed to rain at all until Friday. That was two days in a row that the forecast said no rain, but then it rained.
Today it was a little cloudy, but it stayed dry and got up to around 74ºF.
Tomorrow it's supposed to rain a lot and only be 59º, but after two days this week where our weather ended up being the opposite of what the forecast said, I'm kind of expecting it to end up being sunny and 80º.

 

[auntiehill]

Unseasonably warm. Should get to 71 F today.

 

[JD]

We actually got the rain they predicted. It started early this morning, and then went off and on for a few hours, stopped this afternoon, and started back up again tonight.

 

[PlainSimpleJoel]

Rain and thunderstorms. Going to be a very few days.

 

[publiusr]

Mild.

After a year of atmospheric violence, we get a treat:

Windy, they cancelled the fireworks in a few cities because of it

 

[Random_Spock]

Cold and snowy/rainy.

 

[Jack Wolfe]

Upper 70s today, upper 50s tomorrow. Severe storms Tuesday. Just another topsy-turvy winter in west-central Florida.
