A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall Gardener's Chat How's the weather your way?#4

Well, it has warmed up to -27*C (-17*F) this morning. We are in the middle of a freezing snap.....which usually means no snow for a few days. I had to shovel out my bedroom window yesterday, we couldn't see out of half of it.

Awwwwww Tamara winter must have decided to just come your way this year.

We're having spring here right now, 47* F - or 8*C. And NO WIND today imagine that. So guess what I did this morning, I washed my windows, it was perfect weather to do this.

I have heard about shoveling out windows but I'm kind of glad that I haven't had to do it. Right now it would be beyond me anyway.
We have a lot of rain headed our way. We need it but the areas that were recently burned are in danger of mudslides and flooding without the growth to hold it on the hillsides. We personally are in pretty good shape as far as our hillsides I think. I am so looking forward to the rains. We are expecting in this one rainy period of 3-4 days about twice as much rain as we got all year last year. It is much needed.

Glad you are getting the rain Tina!

It's 15 degrees here right now!

It was -5 this morning here, but the town over from me was -25 where did they have their thermometer , in the river It only got up in the 20,but suppose to be in the 40 tomorrow and Jan thaw on its way for Sunday. Can't wait. At least we will get a break from snowfall for a few days. Not as much snow as Tamara though. Haven't had to shovel out the windows yet

-17*F out this morning and snowing again, just an inch or two. Supposed to warm up next week, hoping so.

It's going to hit about 9*C mon and tues, maybe even into the teens, and we just had -20*C windchills a few days earlier!

Only -5*C this morning, beautiful....supposed to reach above freezing point this week, whoohoo.

The snow should be here in an hour or two.....

It's 31.82° F.

it is between 68* & 70* F here today---alternating between being slightly sunny & a bit cloudy. sounds nice but it will just make the cold all that much harder to deal with when it comes back

although the DH did use this day to take down our outside Christmas display stuff--

we had a high today of 72. on thurday morning the low was 18 everyone here is sick from the yoyo weather.

yes that can happen....easily.

DH & I decided this am that we were gonna stay home today just because of that.

Also, today,when he has gone out he takes it slow so he is not getting sweaty and then going in & out--

Cr@p, it has warmed up but is now calling for freezing rain for the next three days.

It was in the 70's today and yesterday and supposed to be tomorrow I've potted up all the brug starts and have them out side for now,

It was in the 40's here today, but cloudy. Can't complain at least no snow or rain.

We had rain all day and nite......In the 40 ies here ..Snow all melted..Is to be nice all week....Who cares??????

Lucky you--we keep it at 68 or 69 in the house--(we don;t want to pay any higher of a gas bill than waht we get charged for THAT temperature

and not to feel bad too long, Cindy--the temperature in Illinois is famous for rapidly changing--from one extreme to another

O.k. it has warmed up to freezing point, a whole 0*C here and suppose to get nice for three days....will be a nice change.

ok--it is supposed to get into the 60's today---but then we shall see--I would expect the 50's at least though

forcast is in the 40's by friday

It is 55º here in Penna. as I speak......Unheard of ..

Yes this is wonderful for January. I love it I am going to go out and walk around the gardens. It will probably shock the plants but my old bones are loving the heat.

That is awesome, Cindy.

Well for begin in Jan, are's is great yesterday it was

Cindy--it is still a beautiful picture !!!

I hate to brag....but I'm gonna!

It's been cold so long and this isn't gonna last more than another day!

It's almost SEVENTY degrees here right now!

I've been outside all day taking down decorations and cleaning up a bit!

WOOOHOOOOOOO, I don't want it to go away!

Cool pic Cindy! But keep the snow for now okay?

Gosh Cindy!

It's 65 here today.

What a picture....love it....but I do wish I had your weather, though it's 30* here right now we do not have any snow and none coming in the near future.

69º

Here in Pennsylvania it broke a record , from 1946 .............We don't care.
No snow and we were outside without coats..........Whoops .. was one tulip coming up............

I cut off some rose bushes to try to root inside in soil.........

I cant believe Cindy has our weather......Just what she needed.

reached 14*C today, I think that's in the 60*Fs melted most of the snow. Another warm day tomorrow

Copy cat................

that is lots better than Tamara has.. An she is trying to get married.
YOu can't........

10:00 PM 53 degrees.

Holy cr@p, ready for a shocker ................................... It is pouring rain outside, and I mean pouring.

WOW glad to hear it warmed up enough to rain for you Tamara----

as it turns out--it is pouring buckets here too---but while my sump pump works preiodically, we are behind--so it is all good--

Rain is not a good thing though, it has no where to go. The ground is absolutely frozen. It will just sit there until it freezes. Guess we'll be skating in the driveway

ouch--no that is not good---you don't want to fall---the weather has not allowed complete ground freezing yet---so we are ok---

30*F here right now. It was 43 on Sunday and that was very nice for us this time of year! We went out and made a snowman and actually got too warm for our gear so had to take some off!! It was great! Down into the 20s by the weekend. I won't complain about that either. It is better than the -10 that we were having!

64º
Sunny , windy and is to rain tonite and drop........
No snow , I hung clothes out to dry, and picked seeds to swap,,,,,,,,
Blue flax......

We are loosing winter quick this way.Hooray.

Oh no don't fall Tamara, I'm still dealing with my tail bone from my fall last April, so do be careful there.

We hit 69 today, and 70 yesterday----broke records here too Barb! I'm not complaining at all, the rest of the week is all downhill until we are back to the 30's.

BTW, LOTS of my bulbs are poking up ALREADY! Sure hope they make it okay.

We were in the 50's today. It was very nice. Still have snow though. No bulbs popping up here. We are suppose to get rain tomorrow and Friday.
