We had some sleet/ice/snow yesterday and today...it was bad enough they've canceled classes at my university for both today and tomorrow.

This was after 80 degree weather on Thanksgiving :lol: I love Oklahoma weather; it keeps you on your toes!

It's been in the mid 50's this week. It was really cold in the morning, the other day it was 35 degrees! That happens here sometimes, but not usually until like January. Plus, it doesn't snow here, so it never gets this cold, although it's not technically freezing or anything though. The weather is extreme here, in the summer it's REALLY hot, one day was 115 degrees this year!

*checks local news station website* It is 10:40 P.M. now and it is... 39 degrees.

This is all in Fahrenheit btw.

It's in the 50s(Farenheit) or so right now, but we're supposed to see a 30 degree drop in the next three hours as a cold front comes through.
In manic-depressive-weather-land, this is normal. We go from 70 degrees to 35 in a day or weekend with annoying regularity.

Im still to the east of the huge cold front going through the US, so its a mild 65F (18C). Its supposed to drop to near freezing later today, and there are high wind/thunderstorm/flash flood advisories all over. I was just watching the news, and you should see the terrifying line of red thunderstorms that'll be here in an hour o_o

We got about 2 feet of snow (as compared to the 12 inches MAX we were supposed to get). Next to my house, the snow goes nearly to my waist and I'm 5'8. >_<

Temperature is still the same, though.

I don't know what the people around here would do if we ever got two feet of snow...the city shut down yesterday for a not so bad sleet storm with only a few inches of snow afterwards :)

It's cold and cloudy. There were gale-force winds this morning, and it's been sleeting or raining most of the day.

It was in the mid-60's yesterday. Ah, well, at least I get to wear my new coat.

Well. Yesterday didn't rain. Today I woke up feeling sort of cold, so I guess there was a rain at night.
Can you guys still use the computer with gloves? Especially playing neopets games? :D I love neo games. They rock and they are soo lovely. I loathe neopets!!! Can't live without it!!! I think the game programmers rock cause they are soo good at designing them!!! NEOPETS IS THE BEST THING ON THE INTERNET!!!

My high school had some classrooms that were freezing, and my hands don't get great blood circulation, so sometimes I would wear gloves while writing. Buy some cheap gloves and cut out the fingers from the top of the middle joint onward.

It's pretty nice outside today. Yesterday was horrible, though. It was REALLY windy, and our power got knocked out for about an hour. But, it was actually really warm out yesterday, which was good. :)

After three weeks of nearly non-stop rain resulting in an 11 day boil-water advisory, we ended up with an abnormally cold week of record-breaking snowfall (roughly 17 centimetres or 6", considered a lot for Vancouver but nothing for the rest of Canada), power outages, and around -10ºC (14ºF) temperatures with -20ºC windchill (-4ºF). Wonderful.

We finally have a bit of sun though! It's 2ºC (36ºF) right now, which is still below normal for this time of year, but hey, it's a start! Definitely better than typing with gloves on in this freezing basement.

We finally got some snow today... about 2 flakes. It was sticking, but there wasn't even enough to get up over the grass. And that was up in the mountains where I was all day. I don't know if we got any down here. It was also really windy up there.
Hopefully it'll snow some more soon. At least it's cold enough that they got the snow making started today.

I find it totally unfair that places like Texas got snow and yet Vermont didn't.
