How is the weather where you are?

Started to rain here in KC during the night. Then about 4 it all turned to blowing snow.

We might get 2 inches - not that bad and the streets are still just wet. But the wind is really blowing.

I feel for the folks up north.

Keep safe you guys.

Which is quite normal here this time of year (pacific NW). I figure it will stop sometime in May possibly.

it is very unseasonably warm this AM.
The weather lately just does not make me think of Christmas and the end of the year.
My propane tank is loving it, but I am just not sure.
Maybe I could relax and enjoy it more if I did not worry about climate change.

I am going to Madison, WI two days after Christmas, so maybe if I see some snow and cold there I will have my fix and can come back to St. Louis and appreciate this warmer winter weather!!!!

This morning it's a blustery 47° and it's only supposed to get up into the 50's with a low tonight below freezing.

That's TX weather, If you don't like it, wait five minutes, it will change.

Going to hit the low 70s today. I guess it's going to rain later today, and will be 20 degrees colder tomorrow--before the end comes.

Be interesting to see what I-43 looks like tomorrow night.
Think the worst of it will be gone, or is it just starting to move in?

... totally NOT usual weather for the 20th of December.
Supposed to turn to slop/snow later this evening as the stormfront moves in, though.
1-2 inches tomorrow, gusty winds, high in the mid 30's.

Merry Christmas.

(70-100 if you want to cling to an outmoded measument system.)

Just enough of the wet stuff to make the day really unpleasant every week or so.

Roads aren't too bad. But I was going pretty slow. They look slick. Sun was trying to come out.

Could have been a lot worse.
