Same here. Tank top weather, but some cold front's supposed to blow in tonight that might be so bad they close the schools. We're nothing if not inconsistent...

Sounds like us: If you don't like the weather, wait a minute.

Expecting some wind here in the next 24 hours. Gusts to 80-90mph. The ferry's cancelled til early afternoon at the earliest. Many rail services in Central Scotland also cancelled ... Lovely high tides expected too, but not quite coinciding with the worst of the winds.

Throw a rope over the roof and stake down the ends to hold the house down, Dorothy.

Yikes! Hold onto your hats!

Our beautiful snow pretty much died today.

Yeah, pretty windy up here in the Pennines too.

Halifax itself isn't too bad, because it's in the bowl of the hills, but my village, perched as it is on the top of one of those hills is being buffeted good and proper.

That's the worst of it by us, I think ... Hope you're ok, Dana!

Carrot and I are fine and unscathed :p

It was wild and blustery, but no major damage around here that I know of. I daresay a few people have discovered how many loose roof tiles they had on their houses, and the people on the main road will be retrieving wheelie bins and garden furniture from each other's gardens...but that's about it.

60° right now. 1:20 am in South Jersey. 91% humility, too. Disgusting weather for December. And the forecast says snow on Sunday.

Winter storm. It doesn't seem that bad to me, but even area colleges have closed. More snow/sleet coming. Of course, it never seems as bad when you get to hole up in your home. It's not enough for me though: cars are flying by at 60 mph just like always...it's the freaking Indy 500 on my road. I only hope the roads get bad enough to keep Scario Andretti and Slick Trickle home.
