The Weather Thread

[Obelisk]

22 degrees here and a big blizzard came through.

 

[Spacegoat]

Supposed to reach mid-thirties today and it looks like it's going to be at least that, for the next week.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Been mostly cloudy all day. Had a bit of rain later in the afternoon, then it started clearing out. Just in time for an epic sunset.

 

[m8h3r]

That'd make a nice background!

 

[CodeRedR51]

Fun fact: Palm trees are not native to this area (duh, it's a desert ), but they are everywhere.

 

[AnthonyD1993]

42°F and raining. We're also under a high wind warning until 4 am for 60 MPH gusts with 70-80 MPH gusts possible.

 

[TJ13]

Snow. Wind. Sun. That was today's
Snow. Wind. Sun. Is tomorrows.
Cold. Sun. Calm. Is Thursdays.

There's something very wrong when there's a windchill of -35F and that because it's warmed up a little. I'd rather have snow than this nonsense.

 

[gnomefromnome]

We had seemingly a weeks worth of fog, which left some impressive frost out there


..in which was dubbed


and earlier this evening it was snowing

It could always be worse.
Like yesterday International Falls -39F with a windchill of -56F

Winter Storm Watch for up to 1/4" ice and up to 6" of snow.
I don't really want to go anywhere Monday now.

As my dad says. If you don't like the weather in GA, stick around, it'll change.
Last Sunday: Low 14° High 26° Partly Cloudy/Sleet
Today: Low 52° High 76° Mostly Sunny
50 degree difference in a week! GA has no seasons!! Just Hot or Cold...

 

[m8h3r]

If you don't like the conditions here you just stick around complaining no matter the season I find.

Snow in the forecast, again

Snow expected tonight through tomorrow for Anchorage and the Matanuska Valley. Winter Weather Advisories in place from Midnight tonight until 4 PM tomorrow for snow. Anchorage could see 4-8 inches of snow with the heaviest amounts in East Anchorage and the higher elevation

 

[TJ13]

Well supposed to have some sleet/snow/ice later on this afternoon between 4-8 pm.
Then it's warmer near 40 for the end of the week.
Bye bye snow so I can maybe actually get on the bike?

 

[gnomefromnome]

Had some good snowfall today

...and now it'll be freezing rest of the week

 

[TJ13]

So we got about .17" of ice with a .5" of snow.
Schools are delayed.
I am planning to see if I can even get into my car and if I can start clearing it out.

 

[gnomefromnome]

Interior Alaska is in a deep freeze

While here in Anchorage it's a paltry -12°F

 

[Ameer67]

Feels like spring.

 

[AnthonyD1993]

55 here. Really nice to have my window open in January for once.

 

[gnomefromnome]

More snoooowww

...and now with more pics
January 16


and today


snow on the railing


and in the neighborhood.

We here in New Zealand are going through that of a tropical storm right now. Gale force winds, on and off rain and the occasional lightning has done quite a bit of damage around the place, destroying flimsy tin garden sheds, toppling trees and knocking over anything not explicitly nailed down.

Power outages have been reported throughout the country, though personally haven't had an outage, only the occasional flicker. This storm's set to last quite a while, so the next few days may be a little hectic for me...

 

[TJ13]

Still mild, above freezing.
Foggy and Cloudy.
Possibly some snow Tuesday night/Wednesday.

 

[gnomefromnome]

wtf is this weather? First snow, then freezing temps, then more snow...and now this.

 

[Prince.M5]

It's bad here, been raining heavily for the past 3-5 days straight and doesn't seem to be getting any better tomorrow. Had to drive through about 20km of unlit rural roads on a heavy rain was very unpleasant.

 

[TJ13]

Had snow.
Snow is melting.
Still a mess.

 

[gnomefromnome]

After the temperature reached a spring time 42°F.....its snowing again

The air conditioner is going to get a serious workout this week.
