We have bright sun here in the south of the uk.
Which is quite remarkable for 11pm at night!
We hear from our tv weatherman tonight that parts of usa and canada are -30 degrees.
Isnt that like the day after tomorrow film??

-30 DEGREES then throw in the wind and what do you have for wind chill[ouch]

For the first time in days the temps has stayed over zero through most of the day. So what happens? we get 20 to 30 mile winds which makes it feel again below zero.Winter has not even started yet and many people want spring.

Tonight it is in the pleasant teens. However come this weekend wind chills will make it feel like -50 degrees. It looks like a long cold winter.One where there will probably be some snow on the ground till May.

Today it's mostly clear here in Los Angeles, low to mid 70s. I was out on my bike yesterday in a trip to the bank and will probably use the bike again later today. (And that's a bicycle.)

Lite snow, temperature about zero. Wind chill with the wind coming in later will make the next 24 hours feel like -40 to -60.where are the penguins?

Sunny and 68 today... my idea of perfect.
|

Very dark and cool, but I'd probably still not need a jacket, even at just past midnight.

Still simply gorgeous in Los Angeles, which is why I've never wanted to move back to Missouri (left when I was about 3) or join my parents in Montana! I do NOT handle cold weather well!

Just as predicted - with the inclusion of very heavy winds. I've never known a Christmas quite like this. It rains and howls. Then it clears a bit . . . then rains and howls some more. I'm slowly getting used to the idea of flooding at Christmas!
There were a couple of lightning strikes with spikes about 5 - 10 minutes apart a short while ago (requiring reboots.) If it happens again I'll just have to go read a book instead.
It should be cold with snowmen all over the show. It ain't so! From now on it's gonna be Rudolf the wet-nosed raindeer.
Peruse the evidence.
Winter 2009/10 ... worst for 30 years
Winter 2010/11 .... worst on record for over a century followed by one of the driest Springs on record
Winter 2011/12 ... mild, but a wet summer
Winter 2012/13 ... average, but followed by the coldest spring for over 50 years with heavy snow in April
Winter 2013/14 ...? Very windy, freak storms, very wet so far.
Chaos reigns. There's SOMETHING odd for sure in the UK.

After watching the evening news for the U.S. and seeing that Canada is practically covered in white, I was wondering if anybody here is from Canada? What's it like up there?
