Ya know, before I started up the mower last weekend I took the filter off and beat it on the ground to clean it out. It was seriously full of dust and dirt. Awful. I busted out the Dyson to vacuum it out, too, so good as new. That mower has been good to go for the last 15 years!
 
I was happy when we didn't get snowed on in De Kalb on Sunday, but I do feel a little left out knowing everywhere but Holland is getting a healthy dose of snow. I mean really. If it's going to be freezing cold and miserable, the least it can do is snow a little.

Although on Saturday, apparently De Kalb was the only sunny place in the upper Midwest seeing that I got burned to a crisp and everyone else looks exactly the same.

:lol: I feel left out from snow AND rain. We've still only had like 5mm for this year so far... :(

It's freezing cold here, finally winter's coming. I put my jumper and pants on tonight for about the first time since about September. Must be close to less than 10C right now. :nervous:
 
It's raining up here in QLD at the moment, apparently it's a fine sunny day in NSW though :grumpy:

We had all our rain last week. Your turn.:D Yeah beautiful day here today, perfect temperature too, around 25C.:)

Guess it is our turn. We had a sunny week last week. Hopefully it will get sunnier though. :)

Last week it was freezing cold(obviously aussie's version of freezing is different to European's version) due to all the rain and coming into winter.:nervous: I hate winter mainly because it's too cold in the mornings, but I also get chill blanes on my fingers.:grumpy: Summer is much better.
 
I wish we could get some rain, the farms here are going to be terrible. :(

Last week when it rained heaps, there were lots of floods around NSW and most of the Catchment area's received heaps of rain as well which is great for the drought.👍 I think some of the Dam's got to above 60% capacity which is great.
 
Wow...really bad weather today. Tornado warning in my city a few hours ago. I was outside when the sirens sounded. Scared the hell out of me! :lol: Golf ball to soft ball size hail dropped all around. The same storm system spawned a few tornados in northern Alabama and Tenessee, and injured 9 and killed 3 in Murfreesboro, TN. The system is still active and spawning tornados too.
 
What started off as a slight shower has now evolved into thunder, darkness and clouds. :grumpy: Perfect day for GT5P though. :)
 
Miserable day in NSW today, rain, rain, rain. It's sort of drizzling on and off. Quite cold too actually. As Nick said, Perfect day for GT5P.
 
I left Seattle this morning, and it was 50 degrees, raining steadily. That's dreary for this time of year, even by our standards. Now I'm in Phoenix, where it was sunny all day, and comfortably warm (80-ish). The forecast back home looks like crap for this week. Aw, shucks, I'll miss it... :cool:
 
It was really nice here over the weekend, probably in the 50s-60s. But today it's gotten a bit cooler and the wind picked up and the clouds rolled in so it's looking like we'll be getting our share of that storm that was down south yesterday.

I heard you guys got hit pretty hard with rain. I wonder if we'll have "winter" all the way through June like we did last year.
 
This is April...right?!?!:scared:

A mix of rain and snow is expected this evening... before changing
over to all snow by early Friday morning. Heavy snow is possible
over the urban corridor... and western Weld County on Friday...
continuing into Saturday. Possible accumulations could range
from 10 to 24 inches of heavy wet snow.

BTW...it was 70F yesterday!!!

Yeah, I am supposed to get 63F today and it will be in the 40s with rain through the weekend.

First weekend in May is supposed to be our frost dateline, but I am beginning to wonder if I should wait an extra week to plant my garden.
 
The weather here in SoCal has been really cold for the past few weeks. Yesterday, the wind was blowing like mad! Trees falling over, trash cans sliding around the streets, etc.

Last night, was freezing! below 40, and it's late April! I hope this means this is the last cold front we'll be facing.

However, tomorrow, it's supposed to get into the low 80s after today's low 70's. And Saturday will be in the low 90s! I feel a tension headache coming on!
 
Central New Mexico, where I live, has had a really strange winter. It was absolutely bone-dry (literally no precipitation), and generally unseasonably warm, for basically all of January and February. Now, in the middle of April, when the average high is over 70F and we basically never encounter winter weather, it's snowing outside for the third time this month, and even accumulating. :odd: Even though this is considered a "semiarid" or "high desert" region, that's a truly bizarre pattern.
 
52F and cloudy now. Low of 38 and a high of 54 and mostly cloudy for tomorrow. As long as it doesn't rain, looks like I might finally be able to clean off my deck and get the furniture back out while the kids are at the circus with gramma.

If it does rain, I'll be cleaning out the garage instead. Regardless of the weather, my wife has me working. Never ends...
 


Kind of interesting weather lately… it doesn’t even get that hot here during summer.
 
Protip: hold Command+Option and click on the sun until it starts raining. ;)



Right hurr it's 92°F
Current: Cloudy
Wind: W at 5 mph
Humidity: 33%
Suckiness: record high
 
Well let's see...it was in the 70's last week, with the snow just about gone...and then it decides to snow...and snow...and snow. :grumpy:

Even though I've been up here so much, the weather still amazes me sometimes.
 
We even got a little snow down here earlier today. Nothing stuck, but there were a few flakes. I'm liking this bit of cold and rain though. It feels like home, definitely my kind of weather.
 
Ugh, it's been terrible. Seriously. I had to walk around all day in this crap, pissing me off to no end having to park down the street from the actual parking lot that I always park in. That, and its been driving our sales through the floor at both Old Navy and DSW.

Thank God it will be 64F and Sunny by Thursday, back into the 70s by Saturday.
