How's the weather?

[Victim of Love]

Brooke, it's in the mid-80's right now, humidity close to 60%. This morning was very sunny but it's been clouding up since noon and radar shows a substantial band of storms moving in from Wyoming and getting close. My kitchen faces southwest so I can sit here and watch it arriving. In these parts, 'polar vortex' translates to temps in the 60's in the coming days. No complaints from me about that. And I love a good rainfall! We got the yard work done yesterday - mowing and weeding - but didn't water because of the storm predictions. My flower beds are begging for showers and cooler temps. :thud::pray:

[Victim of Love]

And there's the first rolling thunder! Bring it on.

[DJ]

HOT! We need rain but none in the near future. No humidity though which is nice. I remember summers in the east with my grandparents, ugh! We just need a good old thunder storm to cool it down a bit.

[Victim of Love]

DJ, where are you?

[VAisForEagleLovers]

It's snowing here, and I read that it snowed in KY last night.

[bluefeather]

abnormally warm here but humid and dark as the sun sets at about 4.30 pm:-(

[Zanny Kingston]

Here it is 11/2- and its SNOWING in the BOSTON area! yikes- its really way too early for this- though friends of mine in the south have even colder temperatures than I have up here in New England!

[Glennsallnighter]

Similar to BF, its unbelievably warm here too at the moment. We have not had the heat on all week - the warmest Hallowe'en ion record!!

I expect the temperatures will plummet in the next week or so but I'm not complaining. The longer it stays warm the shorter winter will be!!

[Ive always been a dreamer]

Yep - I'm definitely not ready to start hearing about snow yet. We have had a very mild autumn in Virginia, but tonight it's supposed to hit the freezing mark for the first time.

[Brooke]

We had a hard freeze Halloween night! 23 degrees and the oldest Halloween in several years!

Also had lots of wind, but that calmed by evening, thankfully for the tricksters!

Cold all weekend, but today it's back up to 70 today! Crazy Missouri weather! I heard about the snow out east, awful!

Ga, enjoy it while you can!

[Brooke]

72 degrees Monday and then the bottom fell out! 34 for a high yesterday! Winter is here early! Brrrrrrr!

[bluefeather]

still relatively warm here but it's been wet and cloudy so it feels like it's twilight time all day long, yesterday was beautifully sunny though thank goodmess

[Glennsallnighter]

Poured all day, still pouring, oh and guess what, its supposed to pour tomorrow too!!

[bluefeather]

oh that sucks Ga, I'm lucky because at least today was dry

[DJ]

It's cold and it's getting colder, below zero.....Brrrr that's what living in the rockies is like in November..........

[cynd1231]

Cold, already 5+" of snow on the ground with 2-4" more coming tonight. I don't mind the snow, it's the polar vortex negative wind chills that stop me in my tracks.

[VAisForEagleLovers]

There was snow on my truck this morning and it's to rain and snow most of the weekend, ending with 1 to 3 inches Monday morning. Yeesh, this is Kentucky?

[Roey]

Crisp and clear. The NY skyline is sparkling. Everyone is happy because it's FRIDAY !!!! :grin:

[Brooke]

We've had snow flurries the past several days ending with just a dusting of accumulation.

[VAisForEagleLovers]

It's 7pm and it's 22 degrees outside. Is this November or January? I seriously worry about what January will be like! The new medicine I'm to take for my thyroid said I should 'lose my sensitivity to cold temperatures'. I hope so!!

[zeldabjr]

got a lake effect snow warning up...possible 2 feet in the next two days...:ack:

[Brooke]

Wow, Z! :ack:

Deep freeze here, 10 this morning but no snow. Way too cold for this time of year!

[DJ]

got a lake effect snow warning up...possible 2 feet in the next two days...:ack:


I saw on the news where you guys were getting pounded with snow. Stay safe and warm! :nod:

[Brooke]

OMG, over 6 feet near Buffalo?! I can't even imagine!

Stay safe everyone in the area!

[VAisForEagleLovers]

How's the weather?? :censored:

It was -3 F when I went to work this morning. It's all the way up to 20 F right now. Downright tropical out there. :lie:

I'll say it again...:censored: :censored: !

[Houston Baby]

It was 28 F here this morning. Anyone want to meet me in Hawaii?

[Brooke]

How I wish, HB! Dream!

We had 10 this morning and that is the high for today. http://www.anchoredbygrace.com/smileys/freezing.gif

But, this winter is going better than last. Last year by this time we had had several snowstorms of several inches. Church had been canceled 3 times already, which rarely happens over once a winter. This year, only snow a couple times. But it has been ungodly cold!

[Glennsallnighter]

Our weather has been described as 'monsoon-like'. Its warm wet and very windy here! I'd love some snow to shut the place down for a while.

[Brooke]

And after a horribly cold week it's warming up! 46 yesterday and 54 today! :yay:

[VAisForEagleLovers]

After looking at the latest forecast for New York and Boston, I can say I'm very glad I don't live in either place! We're to get a half inch of snow and ice by morning here in KY, whereas NYC and Boston will be measuring by feet instead of inches.

[zeldabjr]

we're only expecting 1-3" of snow...stay safe everyone in the path of the big storm!!

[ktdids]

If I'm stuck at home because of this storm, I'll probably pop in the documentary and imagine I'm at Sundance seeing it for the first time!

[Houston Baby]

If I'm stuck at home because of this storm, I'll probably pop in the documentary and imagine I'm at Sundance seeing it for the first time!

That sounds like a great plan! :thumbsup:

[Tiffanny Twisted]

We are expecting a lot
I'm comfy at home for now..........

[DJ]

Well all I can say is I hope everyone stays cozy and safe. Here in Montana we have Springtime, it's 50 degrees and sunny today. :)

[GlennLover]

We're in the middle of the east coast blizzard. Up to 30cm(12inches) of snow is expected, but the drifting from the high winds will cause it to be much deeper in some places. All schools, flights & public transportation are cancelled & the malls & most businesses are closed.

[VAisForEagleLovers]

I talked to my mom this morning, Somerset is in the western part of PA, but around 2000 ft in elevation. She said they have a foot so far, and it's a very heavy, wet snow that is blanketing the trees. She's worried that the power will go out.

[Brooke]

Oh boy, I hope all our Border buddies and their families in this eastern snowstorm stay safe!

We are having mild temps for January, 49 yesterday and mid 40's today. No snow! Kind of a boring winter for us after last years historic snowfall. I would like just a little snow every now and then.....:shh:

[sodascouts]

Yes - stay safe, all our snowed in Borderers!

[tjh532]

Well all I can say is I hope everyone stays cozy and safe. Here in Montana we have Springtime, it's 50 degrees and sunny today. :)

Down here in Idaho, we are up to 50 today too! It's a nice change from the frigid weather that is usual for this time of year. Although around here, we can have freezing temps and snow as late as April....

[VAisForEagleLovers]

Oh boy, I hope all our Border buddies and their families in this eastern snowstorm stay safe!

We are having mild temps for January, 49 yesterday and mid 40's today. No snow! Kind of a boring winter for us after last years historic snowfall. I would like just a little snow every now and then.....:shh:

I for one am very happy at the dearth of snow this year1 If we could get rid of the cold temps I'd be even happier.

[Brooke]

We got about 5-6 inches of wet, heavy snow today which means no church! Lots of goofing off today! :yay:

[Ive always been a dreamer]

Well - relax and enjoy your snow day, Brooke. We haven't had much snow this year, but it was a very cold January and, so far, the forecast for February isn't looking like it's gonna be much better. I'm already ready for spring.

[Brooke]

A dusting of snow yesterday and -5 this morning! http://www.anchoredbygrace.com/smileys/freezing.gif

[DJ]

We have springtime in the Rockies. 61 here today. Yipee!! :partytime:

[GlennLover]

If we get any more snow I don't know where we will put it. We had 3 major snowstorms within 10 days. For Some of the older parts of the city a state of emergency was declared as there was too much snow for emergency vehicles to get through the streets. City crews have been working 24/7 to remove the snow from the streets so. In the rest of the city the snow is just plowed out of the way and there isn't room for more.

[sodascouts]

Wow! Stay safe!

[Brooke]

Yes, GL, hang in there! Hopefully, spring is coming.....sometime!

The east is getting it again today! :fear:

[GlennLover]

Yes, GL, hang in there! Hopefully, spring is coming.....sometime!

The east is getting it again today! :fear:

Luckily we missed today's storm.

[DJ]

We still have spring like weather. I am watching a squirrel hanging by his hind feet from the roof, eating out of my bird feeder, wow! :hilarious:

[Brooke]

Sounds too cute, DJ!

We have had a couple nice days (30's) and are going back to the deep freeze tonight!

[GlennLover]

:jealous:
We still have spring like weather. I am watching a squirrel hanging by his hind feet from the roof, eating out of my bird feeder, wow! :jealous:

[zeldabjr]

winter storm warning up...tomorrow the high is supposed to be -4...Are you kidding me?

[Tiffanny Twisted]

Right there with you bj
Its bitter cold here too
Wind is terrible and we got snow yesterday
I went out and mike called and said head home its layung and slick out so I did and it was axmess

[VAisForEagleLovers]

Here in central KY, we're to get 8 to 12 inches. It's 20 degrees right now, the warmest it's been all day, and by the time the snow starts tonight, it's to be down to 13 with wind chills around 0. Not a lot of wind with this one, thank God, and hopefully since it will be that cold, the snow will be fluffier and not too wet and heavy. I have a feeling my snow shovel is in the storage unit, so cleaning my truck off will be a challenge.

[ktdids]

The temperature is supposed to be 27, but the gale force winds are making it like 1 degree outside right now.
At least I'm not in Boston. And for those who do live there, Spring will come around someday, eventually. Stay safe everyone.

[zeldabjr]

well...today the high temp was minus 6...and I have a dead battery!!!

[VAisForEagleLovers]

Oh no, Zelda! Yeesh...glad I don't live in Buffalo!

I wish I'd been able to swing going to Australia to see the guys. Not only would I get to see the guys in concert, but it's summertime there and I'd miss this hideous weather that's coming our way.

[zeldabjr]

I just got up...can't sleep...and looked at the temp...it's minus 21 with a minus 40 wind chill...never ever seen temps like this...

[VAisForEagleLovers]

I remember a long time ago on a Christmas Eve morning, perhaps 1987, when it was -22 in Somerset, PA. It was so cold it cracked the top of the dashboard in my 1986 Firebird. A few years before that, 1980 or so, it was -20 before wind chill at the top of the ski slopes at Seven Springs, PA. Skiers were very unhappy to be told they couldn't ski. Duh!

[Brooke]

That's awful, Z! Stay warm somehow!

We are cold with a high of 15 yesterday and maybe 25 today. A dusting of snow Saturday and again last night. Certainly not bad compared to you all out east! Praying for spring!

[sodascouts]

We're having an ice day today. Nice to have a day off!

[VAisForEagleLovers]

WooHoo!!!! Originally, they were calling for a two hour delay tomorrow morning, but they've changed it. Closed! Now I need to figure out how to make up the time on a shortened work-week, because I do not want to take vacation.

[VAisForEagleLovers]

Two hour delay for tomorrow morning...so far. Calling for more snow tonight, so we'll see.

[sodascouts]

Looks like we might have some snow showers this evening, but it might clear up enough by tomorrow for us to still have school.

I've changed my avatar to reflect the weather a bit. ;)

[VAisForEagleLovers]

I do like that avatar, Soda, but it does make me a little cold. And hot. Hmm.

Perhaps its the temps here that make me cold. Somehow, Kentucky has suddenly become Vermont. Not taking into account wind chills, it's to be -13 tonight. A high of 3 tomorrow. -16 tomorrow night. Snow, freezing rain, and sleet the entire weekend, but eventually it's to go up to 40, which will seem tropical at this point...

[Brooke]

Sounds like here in Missouri, VA. We have -5 this morning and a high of 19 today. Snow coming. :roll:

[VAisForEagleLovers]

Another foot of snow expected overnight. Fortunately they've already closed the base for tomorrow, so I don't need to go anywhere. Supposed to be pretty cold tomorrow, tomorrow night, and Friday, then warm up a bit with highs in the 40's through most of next week.

In less than four weeks, baseball season will have started. Spring must be on its way, right?

[ktdids]

Snow, snow and more snow. Maybe 4-6 inches here only, but I think we've had enough of it for this season. Bring on the sun and warm weather already!

[Houston Baby]

I am so OVER winter and I know I have nothing to complain about compared to others. But it was 76 degrees yesterday and this morning it is 40 with it going down to 31 degrees tonight. I know for most of y'all it would feel like a heat wave.
Come on SPRING!!!

[Brooke]

I think spring is on it's way here this weekend! :yay:

We had 4-6 inches of snow over the weekend. It melted a bit on Monday and got up to 40, but then a cold blast took us down to 9 degrees this morning! So, the melting that did occur has now turned to ice on top of everything! 20's today. But, 47 tomorrow, mid 50's for the weekend and 60's next week! Whoop, whoop! :applause:

[VAisForEagleLovers]

I'm just speechless. They called for 9, we had 12 when I went to bed. 20 FREAKING INCHES OF SNOW and it's STILL snowing. At what point do I worry about this roof collapsing down on me?

[Brooke]

Wow, VA! I don't know, but that sounds like a lot of snow on it to me! Be safe!

[Houston Baby]

Brooke and VA - we should have met in FL for a few days of spring training and enjoy the warmth AND baseball!! :partytime:

[VAisForEagleLovers]

Seeing the constant pictures of spring training that the Pirates keep pushing to my NewsFeed, I was thinking the same thing!

[Brooke]

Yes, that would be nice! Bring on baseball! :thumbsup:

[Glennsallnighter]

My goodness girls, please keep safe above all. Thinking your roof could collapse is scary to say the least. Hopefully this cold spell will not last much longer. My brother was coming home from Florida via NY last week and his flight out of JFK was delayed 5 hrs by the weather.

On our side we have had some cold weather and a sprinkling of snow earlier in the week, but it has warmed out now and it is lovely and balmy and springy today.

[Brooke]

Yip, spring has sprung here! Snow all but a memory (a few piles around) and 55 right now! :yay:

[VAisForEagleLovers]

It's not supposed to go below freezing all week!!! Yay!! Highs in the high 50s and low 60s! The downside is that it's to rain nearly all week, but I'll take it!

[Glennsallnighter]

Glad to hear that the worst of your snow seems to have gone, Its fun for a few days but not when you have to battle it all the time.

[bluefeather]

first spring days are here:partytime:
not exactly warm yet though, still at or below freezing during many nights

[Brooke]

65 yesterday and heard the first peepers when I left work! Cold at night though-36 this morning.

The peepers might get popped! :lol:

[DJ]

Perfect spring weather, still cool at night but perfect. Lovin life in the Rockies!

[VAisForEagleLovers]

I complain when the weather is nasty, so I need to rave when it's great!! Currently 76 out there! I went for two walks today. The sun is shining, it's fantastic! It's to be highs in the low 50's the rest of the week, but I'm not complaining!

Hard to believe that last Monday was the first day back to work after four days off and 24+ inches of snow!

[Houston Baby]

What a difference a week makes! :thumbsup:

[Brooke]

What a difference a DAY makes! We had 80 here yesterday and today the high will be around 52!

[SilverAcidRayne]

it was 72 degrees monday. now there is snow on the way tomorrow morning with freezing temps. im about ready to leave the state. lol :brickwall:

[Houston Baby]

It is hailing here right now along with rain, thunder and lightning. We have had rain every day for a week! April showers bring May flowers but I am afraid our flowers are drowning!

[DJ]

70 degrees but still almost freezing at night., Have to still cover my flowers. But all in all beautiful blue Montana skies!

[bluefeather]

Sunny and windy spring here, beautiful blue sky showing:partytime:

[Brooke]

After tying (is that right spelling?) the record low for yesterday at 41 degrees F we get rain and a high of 52 today. Heat back on!

[VAisForEagleLovers]

It's Memorial Day Weekend and the weather is incredible! Beautiful sun and to be in high 70's and low 80's today. I would be out enjoying it, but these clothes aren't going to wash themselves.

[AlreadyGone95]

It's nice and comfortable, for Georgia at least. Highs in the mid-upper 80s, with a few clouds. We're (my mom and I )are going to go to my uncle's house either today or tomorrow and (hopefully) grill some steaks. I'm going to enjoy the nice weather while it lasts because by Friday, the high will be 96!

[Tiffanny Twisted]

Beautiful

[Glennsallnighter]

Anyone know a rough idea of what it will be like in Orlando next weekend?

[Brooke]

Anyone know a rough idea of what it will be like in Orlando next weekend?

Ga, if you can get The Weather Channel you can search for weather for any city.

Here's the 10 day forecast for Orlando for ya!

http://www.weather.com/weather/tenday/l/USFL0372:1:US

In my experience, the forcasts change hourly! :roll: I wish you good luck on having some sun!

[Tiffanny Twisted]

hot hot hot

[Malcontent Asylum]

Humid and rainy. Typical Ohio weather. Probably drop to 45 tonight, then burn hard tomorrow afternoon.

[Tiffanny Twisted]

Hot and showers

[Brooke]

Warm and sunny! 84 F today! :yay:

[AlreadyGone95]

Had some rain yesterday and that has kind of cooled things off. Not a bad day today. It's cloudy, but with sunshine. I'll probably go for a walk later on.

[DJ]

Summer has arrived in the Rocky Mountains. 80 degrees and even warmer weather to come. Hello Sunshine and green lawns..........:grooving:

[Brooke]

I think it's here to stay too! Hot and muggy! 86 F

[Brooke]

I'm on staycation the rest of the week and, of course, rain predicted for every day. :-x

[AlreadyGone95]

Hot, Hot, Hot

It's only noon and it's already 95 F with a heat index of 105 F. I've gotta mow the grass this afternoon. :scowl: nope, not happy. Dog days of summer arriving early.

Hey Brooke, I'll trade ya some of that rain for a bit of the heat wave I'm getting. :D :p.

[Houston Baby]

H-town is looking forward to landfall and hopefully a quick goodbye of Tropical Storm Bill. We have flood advisories until tomorrow afternoon.
It seems like we either have a summer drought or a summer of rain/floods. :-x

[Brooke]

Stay safe, Houston!

AG, we've got plenty of heat too, but it's the rain I'm more sick of!

Just came in from sunbathing in the clouds! Will see if I get any tan! :roll:

[DJ]

Beautiful 80 degrees no wind partly cloudy. Quiet Summer Day :)

[VAisForEagleLovers]

90's for last couple of days, and very humid. Made me wish I'd bought that flat iron I'd considered buying last summer. Now, it's storming and the lights keep flashing on and off. It better clear up before the Pirates game, so there's no signal interference...

[Tiffanny Twisted]

Hot and humid
When I cone out of the hospital it feels like a blast furnus hits youin the face:brickwall:

Be safe hh

[Houston Baby]

Thank you Brooke! It has not been as bad as expected. It will continue to rain today and tonight but should be over tommorrow. The flooding has not been as bad as it was Memorial Day.

[Glennsallnighter]

We are due a heatwave next week. I'm not holding my breath.....

[AlreadyGone95]

Hot,humid,and rainy. It's rained everyday since Tuesday and it's raining as I type this. My uncle has a rain gauge, and so far, he's recorded somewhere between 7-8 inches of rain.

[DJ]

You wouldn't think I lived in the mountains by looking at my 100 temp on the thermometer!!! Our heatwave is to last into next week. And I do Not have AC!
UGH :brickwall:

[Brooke]

Yikes, DJ! Hope you can stay cool somehow! Go higher!

I'm beginning to think I live in the Amazon rain forest! We've had over 10 inches of rain this month and normal is like 3 inches! Flooding everywhere. Temps haven't been too bad though, 80's, but so humid! Ick!

[AlreadyGone95]

Well, the weather is not looking good for any firework celebrations tonight. Right now, there's a big thunderstorm surrounding the area, and the rain is coming down in buckets! The high humidity is making things worse. Looking at the radar, there might be a break sometime this evening, so there still is a ray of hope.

[bluefeather]

all gray here but not raining thankfully, annoyingly strong wind too

[DJ]

We had a fireworks ban in our smaller cities. But the city I live in put on a spectacular show I watched from my backyard. The cool down was yesterday and it was needed. I seriously thought about AC being put in but hey this is MT and the weather changes like the wind. However, this week is high 90's also and hardly any rain. Our farmers had a terrible thunderstorm and broken crops Sat. but hardly any rain. So with the heat comes restricted fishing, camping, etc. The Mtn's aren't even cool Upper 80's at our cabin way up high. Love the summer not so much the heat.

[AlreadyGone95]

Well, the small break from the bad weather is over. All of a sudden, a thunderstorm popped up about 40 miles NE of here, and it's heading my way. In the big city around here(Albany), there's hail, downpours, wind gusts, tree damage, and power outtages. It's moving pretty fast, so hopefully we won't see that bad of a storm.

These little summer showers ain't too little anymore!

[Brooke]

Rain all day here yesterday (over 2 inches) and a record low high temperature of 57! Brrrr for July! I was cold all day and evening!

Today the sun just might pop out for a bit and a high in the 70's.

[VAisForEagleLovers]

Hmm... Severe thunderstorm warning and a tornado warning. Sirens going off, emergency notifications on the radio and everyones' phones going off. Fun.

[AlreadyGone95]

Hope you still safe VA! The storm that rolled through here on Wednesday left behind some damage. (Knocked an 75+ foot white oak tree onto my uncle's powerlines. He was without power for over 6 hours!)

Brooke, yikes, that's way too cold for July!

It's the same here, highs in the mid 90s with heat indexes of 105+ and 100% humidity. I'm so greatful for air conditioning.

[Brooke]

AG, we are on track for that kind of weather next week. And yes, I don't think I could survive without the AC.

Beautiful here today, 79 and sunshine! I forgot what it looked like! http://www.anchoredbygrace.com/smileys/sun_smiley.gif

[L101]

Hope everyone gets by ok with the storms and tornados and heat!!
Weather here is cold for July (66 F), windy, overcast and showery - usual summer weather :grin:

[DJ]

Rain lots of Rain. Probably received 5-6" of needed moisture today. So thankful the 100 degree weather is gone for now. Feeling relieved in MT. :thumbsup:

[Tiffanny Twisted]

Humid yuck

[DJ]

The weather seems to be calming down into a nice summer about 80-85. We've been getting some downpours and my puppies swimming pool had about 3" of rain the other day. MT is a beautiful place but we need moisture so we do not have forest fires. In 2001 we had such horrific forest fires just outside where I live we had to wear masks from the smoke. I worked at AAA travel at thetime and boy it took a bite out of tourism. Haven't had any really bad fires since. Thank goodness.

[VAisForEagleLovers]

It was an incredible drive home from work today! First, of course, was the fact I was leaving work and heading home, and that's always a plus. The weather, however is fantastic! Low humidity, 80 degrees, sunshine and white, puffy clouds. Nearly everyone had their windows down, including me! All four windows down, sunroof open, even the sliding window in the back of the truck was open. Music so loud I swear the dashboard was jumping...and first, Cocaine by Eric Clapton followed by One of These Nights by our guys.

Now I'm at home, sitting here thinking of things I should go do so I can drive around some more!

[Brooke]

Glad you enjoyed your drive VA! Sounds like you were rockin'! :thumbsup:

We're having the same lovely weather here the last few days, but it's to warm up and the humidity will be coming back tomorrow. :sad:

[AlreadyGone95]

VA, that sounds so nice!

We're finally getting a bit of a reprieve from the excessive heat. Last night, it was a cool and comfortable night, and that made watching the meteor "shower" more enjoyable, although it was more like meteor sprinkles here.

[jms18222]

Cold up here in my neck of the woods. August and I am sitting outside with a blanket on my legs....sigh! I can hear the catbirds too. Got to get enough energy to turn the pool filter off.

[Brooke]

OMG, it is absolutely beautiful here! 77, sunshine, a slight breeze, and low humidity! AC has been shut down and windows opened! Yesterday the high was 65! :yay:

I'm feeling fall........

[AlreadyGone95]

I'm :jealous: Brooke. That sounds so nice. Though we are experiencing slightly more comfortable temps (90 F instead of 99+), it'll be October or later before the highs will be below 80. Back up to 95 by next week. :?

[LuvTim]

I'm in Arkansas today, and it's really nice, like Missouri. Hi of 83 today, humidity only 40%. Sweet!

[jms18222]

OMG, it is absolutely beautiful here! 77, sunshine, a slight breeze, and low humidity! AC has been shut down and windows opened! Yesterday the high was 65! :yay:

I'm feeling fall........

Oh SHUT UP with this fall business!!! I am still trying to warm up after the polar express from last winter. I wouldn't complain if it was 90 degrees 365 days a year. This gal likes wearing sun dresses & flip flops.
Think it's going to be an early close of the pool this year. My son is going to Texas for a race and it needs to be done before he goes.
Speaking of fall, went to grab a piece of candy and realized this candy was from last Halloween. Sad thing is it still tastes fresh.

[Glennsallnighter]

Its starting to feel like Autumn/Fall here too! Pleasant, but unlikely for the real heat to come back (not that it really arrived this year). Its pouring rain today, but I suppose when the schools come reopen next week it will get a lot hotter!!

[jms18222]

Just watched 2 adult & 8 baby turkeys in my backyard. They flew up into trees. I thought turkeys can't fly!
Found a tick on my son's cat's butt. This is why I don't want them outside.

[Brooke]

Just watched 2 adult & 8 baby turkeys in my backyard. They flew up into trees. I thought turkeys can't fly!
Found a tick on my son's cat's butt. This is why I don't want them outside.

Turkeys can fly for short distances, jms, as you saw! That reminds me of the cutest sight I saw last spring.....a mama turkey sprinted across the road in front of me with 4 young ones following behind like a string of ducks! Cute!

ETA: weather report! Warmed up to 80ish over the weekend, but back to 70s for this week! Love! :thumbsup:

[AlreadyGone95]

I've seen wild turkeys fly a few yards before.

Well, by the end of the week, there will be a small break from the humidity. The air will be much dryier. Which means that while the temperature will still be 90+, going outside won't feel like stepping into a sauna.

[DJ]

Well temp. is still in the 90's but cannot see the sun due to all the smoke from the forest fires. So basically choking on the smoke and sweating.

[jms18222]

In the 60's tonight. Now I will be fighting with the pool until we close it up for the season. I am so not ready for those long cold nights.

Honestly never knew turkeys could fly but then again I never had any take up residence in my backyard before either. This past spring there had to be over 200 of them in the field behind my house. I guess there was a ton of dried corn leftover from the prior season.
Now I have a deer family that has been here for years. They are so used to us by now they don't even move when we pull into the driveway. A few years ago I had to call game control when this idiot with a gun came into MY YARD to "thin the herd". Not on my property you don't & not next to my house. Yes I did press charges. They are wildlife which is all well & good but nope don't aim a my house.

[AlreadyGone95]

Wet, but kind of cool here. Waiting to see what path Tropical Storm Erika takes. If it stays east, it'll probably just give us some beneficial rain. If it goes on a more western path, there will be more than just rain. It'll hit Florida around Monday and my area around Tuesday or Wednesday.

[jms18222]

Thankfully hot for this week. Sad, by this time next month my flip flops will be replaced by Uggs.
Sorry but I am a summer girl. It can never be too hot for me.

[Brooke]

Back to the oven for us this week with highs in the 90's and lows in the 70's. http://www.anchoredbygrace.com/smileys/shine.gif

I kinda liked that cool fallish weather last week. We even roasted hot dogs and made s'mores at the fire pit Friday evening!

[AlreadyGone95]

Well, Erika disipated and my area didn't get any rain or anything. Temps are back to normal, high around 90, low 70-75.

[DJ]

Cooler weather has prevailed but no rain. We need moisture. The cold front is coming through this weekend, of course just in time for us to sand and stain our new deck, LOL. But if it brings moisture ok. Fall is in the air for sure. Our Farmers Almanac has reported little to no snow this winter. If that holds true, we are in trouble for fires next year. We still have some smoke from the current ones burning. On last friday the air quality was so poor you were suppose to wear a mask. Choking in the Rocky Mountains, have a lovely evening.

DJ, so sad to hear this about the fires and smoke, and maybe, potentially, more next year. I'll hope the Almanac is having an "off" year and you'll get the moisture you need. Take care. LT

[Brooke]

Well, DJ, the Old Farmers Almanac for us says snow for us this winter. Boo! I will try to send some of it back to you!

[LuvTim]

Well, Brooke, I guess that means that I'll be getting snow again too. I usually enjoy the first snow of the season and then I'm about over it, like you.

[AlreadyGone95]

I don't know what the almanac has predicted for my area. I just know that snow isn't likely to be in the forecast! :lol:. (I would like a few inches, though. The most I've seen was back in '09, 3 inches. That was the most that had fallen since a rare blizzard back in the 70s)

I have my family reunion this weekend(mom's side). It looks like the weather will decent for it, albeit sorta hot, but fall won't be in the air until October probably.

DJ, here's hoping that you get some snow this year and that the smoke doesn't get thicker!

[AlreadyGone95]

A nice touch of fall is in the air. High of 80 and low of 55. It'll be like that most of the week (low 80s, low 60s). I'm liking this. :D

[DJ]

We had rain most of the week and around 60 degrees. Today it was about 75 and beautiful, but the mornings are cool. Had to turn the furnace on one day. Fall is definitely in the air. And the tress and bushes are turning all sorts of beautiful colors.1311 This is a picture of our University Clock Tower.

Absolutely beautiful, DJ. Wish I could see that view in person. Love it.

[AlreadyGone95]

Fall is finally almost here. Today's high might make 70, same as tomorrow's high. 70s all of next week. :D

[DJ]

Yes Fall is here. We are predicted to have snow in the mountains tomorrow night. Probably won't stick around though still 70 here during the day.

[LuvTim]

Well, I'm in western NC this week and we're all about the rain and the effects of the approaching hurricane here.

Hope NOLA is not in the path there in Coastal Carolina. Take care!

[NOLA]

Just noticed this, LuvTim, and thank you for your thoughts. We got a lot of sideways rain, gale force winds, and some localized street flooding, but nothing compared to what happened in SC. I think some parts of western NC took more of the brunt of the storm than we did on the coast. Can't wait until 1 November when the 'cane season is ovah!

Glad you escaped harm! We did have quite a bit of rain in Western NC, but you're right, SC took a bad hit. Best wishes to all of those folks! :heart:

[AlreadyGone95]

Last night was the first low to drop below 50,(48 F)and the first time the heater came on. Tonight will be even colder, around 44 F. Some places to the north might be in the upper 30s(up near Macon). By the middle of the week, temps will be around 80 (as opposed to 70 today), so it's just a brief cold spell.

[randygirl13]

Today was so gorgeous!! In the low '80's and sunny!! It was a Clear Day

[bluefeather]

clear, sunny and relatively warm here, I love the Finnish autumn though it's getting quite scarse on the daylight

[LuvTim]

Partly cloudy and 62 degrees at mid-America. Autumn is my favorite time of the year. :smile:

[AlreadyGone95]

Highs in the low 80s all through the rest of the week and weekend. I'll be wearing shorts in November! So much for fall. :-?

[Brooke]

We finally got rain yesterday and last night, about an inch total! :yay: It was terribly dry and hadn't rained since Sept. 10th and even then we had only a half inch for the whole month of Sept. With all the farming going on dust had covered everything. I hated to even open a window in the house because of the dust. Thanks to you Texans for sending the rain up here! (And I'm sorry you all have had too much!)

Highs in the low 60's and lows in the 40's.....fall! Hubby fired up the wood furnace last night and it was a lovely 78 in the house this morning-way too hot for sleeping! Had to open the bedroom window! :crazy:

[Houston Baby]

Geez Louise, it is raining here AGAIN! :thumbsdown:

[DJ]

HB We've had rain all week long! But it was a dry hot summer so it's needed. Snow in the mountains already. Makes for a icky Halloween night though.

[AlreadyGone95]

Now what's left of the hurricane that pounded Texas is knocking on my back door. At leaat 5-6 inches of rain over the next 2 days, with some severe thunderstorms that have some rotation to them. :fear: :nervous:. I don't like this!

[Houston Baby]

Be safe AG & stay indoors

[AlreadyGone95]

Be safe AG & stay indoors

I'm going to try to. I'm visiting my nana this afternoon, so I'm out in it somewhat. The worst is still in Alabama, and will hit southwest Georgia about 7 or 8 pm tonight. The main threat is localized flooding. Right now, it's in between a light rain and a downpour. No signs of a thunderstorm yet.

[Brooke]

The ups and downs of fall!

Cold over the weekend and now back to 70's for a few days this week! :crazy:

[AlreadyGone95]

Yesterday's high was 85. Today's high is 63. :crazy: Right now the temperature is 57, but it feels like 50.. It's gonna be like this most of the week, except Wednesday when the high will be 75. Lows will be between 50-60, but by next weekend, they'll be between 35-45. (Personally, that's too cold for my preferences.). I'll be spending the next 15 or so minutes digging out the pants that I had put away since fall had been unnoticeable until now! :lol:

It's also raining and storming today. They had to cancel the last day of the local fair today due to inclement weather.

[jms18222]

In the 60's here, really warm for November. The cats are enjoying having the windows open & I am enjoying not having the heat on.

[AlreadyGone95]

It's the time of the year where we need heat in the morning and a/c in the afternoon. Plus, within a few days, I can go from wearing shorts to wearing sweatpants :crazy:. Later on today, there's going to be some bad weather, that crazy front that's moving through. There's gonna be some cold weather behind it. This cold weather will hopefully bring the first night below freezing this fall. By now, we should've already hit the 32 F/0 C mark. Heck, this time last year, there had already been several nights below freezing, including some in the teens! Some very abnormal weather. It's like it's a month behind!

[Brooke]

We got 4.7 inches of much needed rain over the last two days! No storms either! :yay:

Today, wind and cooler from 65 yesterday to 55 for a high today. Cold coming for the weekend and maybe a snowflake or two!

[LuvTim]

Was awakened in the very early hours here in the midwest by the effects of an earthquake centered in Oklahoma. Having previously resided in California and experiencing several small quakes there, I knew what was happening immediately, but it is more than unsettling for those who are not accustomed to this phenomenon. (However, these things are now becoming so frequent here, there will be surely be few left innocent of the effects in a very short while.) :-(



ETA: Perhaps this should have been posted to "What's Happening In Your Life?," as I realize that earthquakes may not be considered "weather." LOL...Feel free to move it!

[Brooke]

I heard about that on the news this morning, LT. Glad it wasn't a bad one!

We had a pretty good one here several years ago in the wee hours of the morning and I remember jumping out of bed and running downstairs to see if my hubby felt it! He didn't, but upstairs I had necklaces hanging on a mirror and they were shaking! No damages, thankfully!

Glad there were no damages, Brooke!
There were none reported here, either.

(But doesn't it feel weird, though?? I mean, while it's happening? Aaacck!)

[AlreadyGone95]

Yikes LT! Glad that was no damage. I've never felt an earthquake and hope I never do. *knocks on wood*. Yesterday's bad weather was alot milder than expected. There was only one confirmed tornado. It touched down just south of the main campus of the college that I'll be at this afternoon. I don't know of any damages yet.

[Brooke]

Glad there were no damages, Brooke!
There were none reported here, either.

(But doesn't it feel weird, though?? I mean, while it's happening? Aaacck!)

It does! I couldn't believe my husband didn't feel it. He was rummaging around getting ready to go to work though.

[AlreadyGone95]

Literally freezing here, 32 F/0 C. I'm huddled underneath a blanket to keep warm while reading a book before bed. Yesterday's(Monday) high barely reached 50. By Thanksgiving, it'll be 75. Even though I don't like the cold much, I'm ready for it to steadily stay cold for more than 2 days! My sinuses don't like this rollercoaster weather!

[Midnight_Flyer]

cold here, been really windy the other day but it's not now

[AlreadyGone95]

Unseasonably warm here, 70 F. It'll reach almost 80 before the end of the week. I'm not sure that Christmas is a little over 2 weeks away! :crazy: :headscratch:

[Brooke]

I know what you mean, AG. It' supposed to get in the lower 60's here for the weekend! December? :hmm:

[LuvTim]

Tonight, I'm going to a local event here, Botanica Illuminations. If you can imagine a walking tour in a garden full of holiday lights, music and food, you'll have a good idea of what this event is all about! A good group of people to accompany us is "the cherry on top," if you will.

The weather being unseasonably warm will work out to our benefit tonight, I think: I mean, I've been to BI in the falling snow, and it's certainly beautiful under those circumstances, but, boy was it cold that night!! Bbrr!!

We should be more comfortable tonight! :smile:

[Brooke]

Sounds fun, LT!

Our church used to go caroling around my small town (walking) and I can remember it being terribly cold sometimes! Hot chocolate was always welcome afterwards!

[AlreadyGone95]

Sounds nice LT!

Brooke, I've done the same thing, except instead of walking, we had a hay ride on an old trailer that was pulled by the church van. The adults got the warm van, while the youth got the hay. I was cold and itchy afterwards, but it was worth it to see the smiles on people's faces.

Of course this year, here it is a week into December, and today, I wore short sleeves and shorts!

[AlreadyGone95]

Saw this and Facebook, and yes, it fits. Glad that I hadn't put away my shorts yet. You need the heater and A/C in the same day. Today high of 72, low of 40.
http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/a552/kim_dixon2/gadecember_zpsii4ygzvg.jpg

[AlreadyGone95]

It actually feels like winter for a change. The high today is 58, and the low is 30. The wind chill makes it feel colder, about 50 at the the moment. By the middle of next week, the high will be back in the 70s. :?

[NOLA]

Warm and humid yesterday, cold and breezy today. This crazy weather reminds of New Orleans this time of year! Don't know if I'll be wearing shorts on Christmas or not. :crazy:

[AlreadyGone95]

One of the local weathermen just said that we will match and could possibly break the record for the warmest Christmas on record. The record is 80, and 80 is the predicted high. Wearing a t-shirt and shorts on Christmas just doesn't sound right!

[DJ]

Warmed up to 35+ and snowed about 5-8 inches over night. Lots to shovel!

[Brooke]

DJ, please send some to the Midwest please! But our temps are in the 50's all week so probably wouldn't do any good.

It's been very mild here this winter and I would prefer a little colder for Christmas. A dusting of snow would be good too! El Nino, so they say!

[Ive always been a dreamer]

I'm with ya, Brooke. It's unseasonably mild here in VA as well ... supposed to be in the mid-70's on Christmas Day. I guess we need to postpone singing Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow for a while longer around here.

[AlreadyGone95]

Wet. We're under a flash flood watch until tomorrow morning. My yard looks like a swamp. Between yesterday and tomorrow morning, there's gonna be an estimated 7-9 inches of rain. They've also raised the high for Christmas day to 83. The record will indeed be broken!

[Brooke]

Wow, AG! Get your boat!

We are warm too. Maybe a record high today in the 60's. Then cooling to 40's tomorrow, but rain for the weekend, possibly 3-6 inches. It's a good thing it isn't cooler or that would be lots of snow!

[AlreadyGone95]

According to my uncle's rain gauge, as of last night, 11 inches had fallen. This morning, there's a tornado watch, but most of the severe weather is to the north.

[NOLA]

That's a lot of rain, AG. It's been warm and raining here, too, for the past three days. Enough already!

[Ive always been a dreamer]

Same here in VA, Nola and we're not done yet!

[Brooke]

Rain and sleet and glad I live in NE Missouri. The southern part of the state has been washed away!

[L101]

We've another storm due tomorrow but its sending a lot of rain ahead of it first!! So the floods that we have been dealing with since Dec 4th, have risen again and are now at their highest and just outside the doors of the house - hopefully we won't get the worst of the storm or the house will be flooded soon .....

Really fed up of the floods now - and just really want dry weather for a bit....:pray:

[AlreadyGone95]

I'm lucky that I live a few miles from the nearest creek, and that my yard drains water really fast. It'll be raining most of this week, which will add to the flooding. The temperatures will turn more wintery by the weekend, highs in the 50s, lows in the 30s. This winter is predicted to be wet and cold. The cold I can deal with, but the wet part is not good. :?

I want some dry weather as well!

[Brooke]

We got a skiff of snow this morning. Just enough to stick to the roads and make them really slick! And colder-high 29 for the day!

[AlreadyGone95]

75 F here! The weathermen lied. They said a few inches of rain this week. My uncle's rain gauge shows that nearly 2 inches has already fallen since Monday night. They're predicting another 5 inches of between today and Friday. Every creek and river in southwest/central west Georgia and southeast Alabama is in the moderate or massive flooding stage already. The rain should stop by Sunday, hopefully.

[DivineDon]

How did you survive 'Storm Frank' , Lacken? ( who named these storms - Frank sounds so innocuous and yet it caused such havoc! )

[Glennsallnighter]

I've been wondering as well how you girls are doing. Its a bit calmer in the east but not much. At least we still have electricity. The Liffey is in full flow! I believe Gertrude hits us on Saturday. I have NEVER seen so much rain!!

We were in Howth on Monday - Soda you may remember being out here in the summer. The pier was closed off completely because the water was coming right over the wall and creating a waterfall on the far side

[L101]

Well, Frank (!!) has risen the water levels again and we finally managed to get a water pump as the water was coming into the back porch. Its taking a while for the water level to go down even slightly. We'll really feel the effects of Frank today and they are worried about one area right beside the river.

Tomorrow we have storm Gertrude so my NYE will be spent watching the water :grin:

How are things with you? The West and South of us are really bad as well. Hope 2016 is a bit calmer !!

ETA - Great pictures GA!! I love walking in the wind :-)

[DivineDon]

Cool photos GA, I love walking in the wind too but not when it literally blows you over!!!

On the one hand we're lucky 'cos we live up really high so we'll never get flooded but then on the other hand, when it freezes or snows, we're marooned for weeks!! So it's hard to know which is best but the wind is also terrfiying when you live up high. Hoepfully, you'll beat the waters, Lacken and the New Year will be better. You must be all exhausted what with the stress and trying to pump out water day after day. :brickwall:

[Brooke]

Beautiful pictures, Ga! Thanks for sharing!

We are dry now for the next week, but the southern half of Missouri is about to float away! The flood gates are in in Hannibal, a nearby town. Branson and St. Louis and many other towns have many roads flooded. Even interstates! Strange for this time of year!

[Ive always been a dreamer]

Wow, GA! What incredible pictures to show the force of Mother Nature. This has definitely been a wet December for us as well, although we're not experiencing the same problems that many of you are. Keep safe and dry everyone!

[AlreadyGone95]

Finally drying out down here. Now Jack Frost is nipping at our noses. Tonight will be the first night that the temperature will dip into the 20s, and the high tomorrow is 48. After this cold spell, the weather will be about normal for winter in south Georgia, with lows in the 30s and highs in the 50s.

Hope that everyone else who has had alot of rain is now catching a break!

[DJ]

Nice pics GA!

We've had snow and ice for about 2 weeks. Makes driving tough. But it's winter and snow is inevitable.

[Midnight_Flyer]

we have snow here

[AlreadyGone95]

Temperatures are about average, lows in the 30s/upper 20s, and highs in the upper 40s/50s. There's talk of snow by the end of February, but I'll believe it when I see it.

[NOLA]

Raining and cold. Winter is back with a vengeance.

[Ive always been a dreamer]

Well - it's been unseasonably mild here in Ole Virginy. It was in the mid-50's here yesterday, but that took a sudden turn overnight. Today we won't get out of the 30's and we are now having our first snowfall of the season. We have about 1/2 inch right now, but it's beginning to taper off, so I don't think we'll get much more. My kind of snowfall - very pretty, but not enough to cause any major disruptions. :thumbsup:

[Outlawman13]

For me, it's been off and on kind of cold!! Freezing in the mornings and loving the afternoons!!! Love the sun!!!

[AlreadyGone95]

Normal, but with a lot of rain coming today. There's snow as far south as Atlanta. Saturday's high will be 44 with 25 miles an hour wind gusts. :?

[Victim of Love]

To anyone in the line of the superstorm bearing down on the east coast, please be safe. It sounds like it's going to be a major event and I would hate to see anyone take an unnecessary risk.

[ktdids]

Blizzard 2016 here in Brooklyn. A foot of snow so far and more to come. Almost passed out walking too fast in the snow trying to get to the subway, couldn't catch my breath, but I stopped and got a grip on myself! Wind is kind of wicked at 30-40 mph gusts. Snow in the face is not fun at that rate.

[AlreadyGone95]

We actually got some snow flurries very late last night and early this morning. I got to see some of them. I don't like the temperature being 40 F, with a wind chill making it feel like 27 F. That's too cold for this Georgian!

Still safe everyone who is on the east coast!

[jms18222]

12" of snow yesterday. Now the sun is shining & the driveway is melted not that I am going anywhere. I HATE SNOW!

[sad-cafe]

I hate winter



but


for Kansas today in our area it got up to 55 so I can't complain

[SilverAcidRayne]

I flipped off the snow so many times this weekend. lol I work in a convenience store. and while I believe 7 11 and Wawa was closed Circle K was open. it was a state of emergency. and they still opened. that annoyed me to no end.

i'm glad everyone is safe though.

[Brooke]

Hoping everyone in the path of Jonas is safe and warm!

We just had three to four inches last week but bitter cold temps. Now 42 today and some melting.

[Outlawman13]

Right now it's in the high 60's, and don't really like it all that much!! LOL

[AlreadyGone95]

Unseasonably warm, in the 70s. There's a moderate risk of severe weather late tonight in to early tomorrow morning. , roughly 11 pm- 6 am. The weather coming has the most chance of damaging tornadoes that our weather people have seen in several years. I'm not looking forward to trying to sleep tonight!

Then a brief cool spell followed by more warm weather.

[DJ]

Springtime in the Rockies. Freezes at night upper 50's during the day. Sunny, finally! We had a long cloudy winter, glad to suck up some Vitamin D....:razz:

[Brooke]

Drab Missouri winter here, 40 and cloudy.

[Outlawman13]

Right now it's 64 degrees and super windy!!

[jms18222]

Went from 60's with heavy rain & thunderstorms at 2:00AM to 36 & snow showers 12 hours later.

[Brooke]

Warming up! 68 F right now, but cloudy. Rain in the forecast for the next few days.

Wish I was home so I could enjoy it!

[AlreadyGone95]

71 and sunny here. No rain nor cold spell for the next week. Highs tange from 74-85 between today and next Monday. I'm glad for the warm weather, but with all of the standing water from the huge amount of rain since December, the mosquitoes will be going crazy soon!

[LuvTim]

I hope HoustonBaby is ok with all of the flooding down there. Sending a good thought, HB.

[Houston Baby]

Thank you Tracy for the good thoughts. I live in the City of Jersey Village which is in north-west Houston & we got @ 20 " of rain in 12 hours. The bayou that runs thru our little city overflowed & got in several houses. Thankfully my house is several streets over from the bayou & my house is ok. I have never seen so much lightning & thunder. I am now on my way to Las Vegas to see George Strait & dry out. My prayers are with everyone in H-town.

[NOLA]

Glad to hear you're alright, HB! I remember when TS Allison made a mess of Houston (then made a mess of NOLA), and this was an eerie reminder. Anyway, enjoy and have fun in Vegas! :)

[Brooke]

HB, glad you are high and dry, somewhat! And have fun in Vegas!

Love George!

[AlreadyGone95]

HB, glad that you and your home are both safe. Have fun in Vegas.

[DJ]

Sunny 75+ here in the rocky mountains. The snow is melting slowly in the mountain areas and all the trees and flowers are in bloom......:grin:

[AlreadyGone95]

DJ, I'd love to have that weather. We're in the middle to upper 80s for the next week, which is too hot for April. It will be mostly sunny though, which is a nice thing after the huge rainfall amounts of the past 4 months.

[Brooke]

We were 6 inches behind for rain, but I think that will change soon! We got a couple inches over the weekend!

Temps are up and down. 82 Saturday and barely made 60 yesterday! I'm ready for warm weather every day!

[AlreadyGone95]

Brooke, I'll take the 60 for a high. 85-92 for highs for next 10 days. The heat is on here, and will steadily get hotter.

[jms18222]

14 straight days of rain, yesterday & today were sunny yet mild. rain again tomorrow. I seriously need some hot dry weather to dry my yard out.

[AlreadyGone95]

There's a brief cool spell for today and tomorrow with some much needed rain. Then the heat is on for sure. Temps will be flirting with 3 digits by next weekend (96-98 for highs).

[Jonny Come Lately]

Absolutely wonderful weather here - hottest day of the year so far. I can feel the heat of the sun indoors as I type this (I don't feel this very often!). The temperature is currently about 23 degrees Celsius, but even tonight it isn't expected to dip below 15, so consistently very warm around here right now. No doubt it will change back to the usual soon enough, but I'm enjoying it while I can!

[Anna-M.]

It is raining like hell for about two weeks now I guess it won't be better in the coming days. We have to fight with massive floodings which I have never seen before in my life and I'm very glad that we could stay in our house.
Hopefully the worst part's over and the sun will shine a few times this month.

[AlreadyGone95]

Well, they've changed the forecast. Tropical Storm Colin will impact all of southern Georgia all throughout today and into Tuesday. The severe weather should go south of my area, so that's a good thing. (Sorry for those in northern Florida who'll be getting the brunt of it). The 2-4 inches of rain is badly needed.

Lovely weather here over the weekend, highs around 80 and sunny. Same for next couple of days, then the heat is on, 90's! Summer is here!

Very hot here! 90's for several more days. Normal for now is 82! :faint:

For the past few days, it's been 97-99, with a heat index of 105. It's 10 am and it's already 83, with the heat index making it feel like 90. These highs are way above average, even for Georgia. The weekend will bring a cool spell and, hopefully, some much needed rain.
