Hovering around freezing point today with rain all day. Everything is already covered in ice... It's supposed to get warm overnight so hopefully it melts away.

Thankful for the holidays where I can vegetate at home.

Late December and we're under a tornado watch. Craziness.

Foggy and -1°C / 32°F here in Munich. Not nice, not spectacular.

Merry XMas from Bavaria.

I just noticed on my weather station that last night's low was 6 F-reezing degrees here! The forecast low was 18 F.

The freezing rain (ZR) has begun. Keeping my fingers crossed that the power stays online all night.....

Currently sunny and 66°F with a high predicted at 67. More rain coming this week starting on New Year's Eve Day.

Heard the New York area has been having its worst snowstorm in 4 years. Stay warm and dry, you guys. And most importantly, stay safe!

Go figure, they just decided to change the warning colours...

"Environment Canada recently switched to a new colour-coded weather alert system, one that better aligns with recommendations from the World Meteorological Association. Weather warnings are now issued in three colours of ascending severity: yellow, orange and red."

Had some lightning during dinner. Still coming down with heavy rain... the existing ice doesn't seem to be melting too much.

Noticed the neighbours have a cable hanging from their house awfully close to my car. After inspecting it's just a stupid telecom wire and not power.

The forecast by me was for 5-8 inches and you'd think the world was ending. The hysteria on the news was over the top. We got maybe 3.

Well, it is Monday and oh my the cold is back!

Was 18F at 6am when I went out to run an early morning errand.

To be sure others have it worse -- cold and various types of (mostly) frozen precip -- but dang from 68F Sunday at 6am to 18F today at 6am is not in the travel brochure...

It's been all over the place here. Mid 70s, low 20s, 50s right now. Everything called for rain, haven't seen a drop. Calls for a sunny day today, but it's nothing but clouds. Apparently no one knows.

Does the Bronco have snow-blasting bazooka tubes on the hood?

I'm assuming fishing pole holders at the beach?

We've had a mostly rainy December, but no freezing temperatures. Now it is 31F and dry and forecast to stay the same for several days. Then warmer temps and rain return for the new year.

I don't know what's worse, the cold or the wind. But together they make it tough to be outside.

I’m not that dude living in Colorado that loves the cold and snow. I’m pretty happy with this…

Yeah, the news likes to exaggerate... better for ratings.

Santa Ana winds are blowing; 30mph sustained, 50/60 mph gusts. Last week we got several days/inches of rain and the ground is saturated so there is the possibility of downed trees, power lines, etc. This is supposed to last through Tuesday.

After the freezing rain we went above freezing by a few degrees. It's now pretty windy and flurries called for overnight and tomorrow.
