The interstates in Missouri are a disaster right now. Wife and kids already ran off road and totaled the car. They're safe but car is demolished. Huge pileups everywhere

They’ve already issued their warning about iguanas falling from trees due to the cold immobilizing them.

[Wingnut]

Gonna get down to the low 30s here Fri night/Sat morning.

Insanity.

 

[The Big Donkey]

I don't think my tires are graded for under 40 degrees. gonna have to stock up on the booze tomorrow.

 

[flapgreen]

Insanity.

OK. Has to be Florida. Lol

 

[Osaurus]

Snow/ice/freezing rain here in the Shenandoah Valley. In other words, it's gross outside.

Be safe out there. Skyline Drive looked dicey af the last couple of days.

11 degrees, -6 windchill
too freaking cold

 

[snellman]

-16 actual and -45 wind chill this morning in eastern Nebraska. The wind has been crazy all day. Working from home today and I don't plan to leave the house.

Same in NW Iowa, not snowing, but it looks like a blizzard just with the wind blowing the falling snow. Surprised how many idiots were out today that didn't have to be. I work at an Auto dealership and the number of little old ladies that came in to have tires and batteries check was exhausting. There is no way I would have left the house today if I didn't have to go to work.

 

[Jayrod]

-3 right now in Southern Missouri and supposed to get down to -7.

I can't remember the last time it got this cold around here, I think it has been a decade or more.

It snowed for a few hours and wind blew hard. I worked from home, but plan to go in tomorrow.

Holy crap. -26 with windchill here.

 

[fatness]

Right now it's 52 in northern MD with some more rain on the way. It's supposed to drop 45 degrees in the next 24 hours, and not hit 32 again until Tuesday.

There's not gonna be any "out there" for me, GB

I got COVID, which nixed my Christmas travel plans. We've already hit our high temp for today - 34 degrees at 12:01 a.m. - and the bottom is getting set to fall out. I'll do my weekly grocery shopping Monday and that's probably the next time I'll leave Casa Uruk.

How's it going with you? I think I heard you'll have high temps in the 40s today?

 

[FairWarning]

I’m about to go to work, this will be interesting. Staring at 30-50 MPH winds on Lake Michigan, hoping to hit Meijer on the way.

71 today, but it won’t last past 1 pm. Highs in the 40s for a couple of days with lows under or around freezing. Feel better. COVID sucks.

 

[heckmanm]

-9 here this morning, -31 wind chill. And the pet door is in my office and faces west, which is neat

 

[BobbyLayne]

It was 54 when I woke up, currently 46.

Forecasted temps:

• Noon 44 degrees
• 3pm 31 degrees
• 6pm 23 degrees
• 9pm 16 degrees
• Midnight 13 degrees

will be around 11-12 degrees when I get up tomorrow

 

[Mrs. Rannous]

Here in Houston, it was 17F, climbed to 18 by eight o'clock. Now it's 14F and light snow is possible. It should be around 60 here. Awesome!

We're all a little twitchy after the small power issue we had in 2021. But there's no real snow this time, so we should be good.

At least we didn't make any football playoffs. We don't have to figure out who's playing in Fimbulwinter.

Left the bar last night to 43, dry, and calm winds. Woke up this morning to -3 and a blizzard warning

 

[The General]

Icemaggedon in the Seattle area! A warmer plane of air slid in between freezing layers so we are getting about 6 hours of freezing rain until later this afternoon.

Good timing with the holiday break, most peeps at home already. This happened years ago and it was like Mad Max Fury Roads on the freeways with cars abandoned and people just walking down the interstate.

Did completely close the airport at the moment though so can’t imagine the 5th level of hell that must be right now.

Same here (eastern SD). This kind of weather is very pretty as long as you're sitting comfortably in your warm house. No idea why anybody would voluntarily go out in it.

 

[SoBeDad]

Any power outages associated with the high winds? Do most homes in places like Buffalo have gas heating?

The only reason I am up to 554 steps so far today is because I was out after midnight.

 

[AAABatteries]

14 degrees with -2 degree wind chill in north Atlanta - we don’t do this cold weather crap.

 

[Mrs. Rannous]

And the blow out preventer for our spinkler system just blew off the house along with the shut off valve. Water is POURING down the side of the house to the street. Plumbers have been notified.

Joy.

[tri-man 47]

Spent an hour shoveling ... -9 and about -35 wind chill. I was bundled up and mostly kept the wind at my back, so it wasn't that bad, except for some finger tips. Should have used mittens instead of gloves.

 

[BroncoFreak_2K3]

9 degrees with -15 degree WCF in Central MI, about 10 inches of snow on the ground. 50 MPH wind gusts. Cleared the driveway and it was like being in a deep freezer for an hour. Good times. Gotta love lake effect snow and winter weather here in the mitten.

 

[Mrs. Rannous]

Plumber is now here. Water has been shut off at that area. Progress!

I suspect a bodacious glacier soon.

 

[John Kreese]

Just had an 80mph wind gust not far from here and they are calling for 3-4ft of snow through the weekend. Should make for some interesting snow drifts.

 

[Uruk-Hai]

Just had an 80mph wind gust

WTF? Are you on Mt Everest?

Temps cut in half here in about 7 seconds. I have a crew cut, but stepped outside and now look like Bob Marley.

Feels like I’m back in the Midwest, especially with the wind.

[Galileo]

-5 F with wind chill of -27 according to AccuWeather, but I swear my car thermometer read -7!

 

[Mrs. Rannous]

All done. That was speedy. We really like our plumber. It pays to be a good customer.

 

[John Kreese]

Nearby golf dome just blew over.

We've hit 74 around us - Fairport Harbor. Peak gusts haven't hit yet either - that's supposed to be over the next 6 hours or so.

The Great Lakes don't eff around in these times.

Someone has already shared the sports reporter who was roped into doing the on the scene blizzard reporting right?

If you have not seen:

Not thrilled, and not keeping it a secret

Yeah a little concerning that we are hitting those numbers already and supposedly the worst is yet to come.

 

[Galileo]

Western end of Lake Erie is 7 ft below normal...all the water is getting blown into Buffalo.

 

[massraider]

45 degree swing today from high to low in NYC.
56 degrees at noon, getting down to 11 tonight.

We live on a big hill and had three cars abandoned right in front of our house by around 10 this morning. We’re at an T intersection and people tried to turn from the flatter street into the hill. Dummies. Two groups are back out there now that the weather is warming, trying to rescue them.
