My thoughts too - friends of ours were hit, and lost their home, but they feel very grateful to be alive, and have a family close by to stay with.

Brrrrrrr. It's only 21 degrees here this morning! And to think it was 76 degrees just two days ago! I know I'm gonna freeze my fanny off today. Someone turned the heat down last night to 60 in the office. Even my fingers are frozen!

We had that yesterday Rosie. Today was breezie, but nothing like yesterday. LOL, in the middle of it we ot a knock on our door. Couple neighborhood kids looking to earn some money by raking leaves! Darren looked out the door, said tree branches were still flinging all about and told the kids they'd never get anywhere if they tried it then. Today it looked like every leaf on the trees was on the ground, so tomorrow if it's not that windy we'll send the kids out to rake and sweep (they're trying to earn Christmas money) and if the other boys come back by we'll put them to work too! It's a job thats going to take them a while. Yesterday morning we got a little bit of rain and then it was hot most of the day. Late afternoon the temps dropped quite a bit and it got really cold which has continued all day today and tonight.

I saw a news line about a tornado hitting Ft Riley last night. I may or may not have the right information but has anyone heard from Saxywildcat today since I know her new husband is stationed there.

It was so windy the day I left Long Beach (Saturday) that it felt like I could just flap my arms and I'd fly without the plane!
Note the palm trees..

Then today was grey and cloudy, then some wind and a bit of rain and later quite a bit of rain for awhile,at least.. apparently there was some flooding in the Bay Area (I'm still in Oakland, CA) and lightning and varying amounts of rain. I managed to avoid much of it.

It got grey and cloudy here too, lots of wind and no rain. It's been freezing, about 29 now and not supposed to get much better through tomorrow morning. I really don't like cold weather, LOL!

It pretty much snowed on and off all day yesterday, we got between 4 and 6 inch of snow. Now it's getting cold, it is 1 degree right now and seems to be dropping. I'm not looking forward to going out and shoveling.

We got several inches of snow today and its 28 degrees now and all I can think of is I hope there aren't many dogs or cats outside. That thought always makes me want to go out looking for them but I know I can't.

That is so funny that you think about that Twinkie, I do the same thing when it starts getting cold out. When I was a kid me and my brother snuck a dog in the house because we found it outside during the middle of the winter. Of course our folks wouldn't let us keep it, but at least they let us keep it out in our shop until we found a farmer that would take it.

LOL Rosie! You sound like my aunt. Several years ago, when my mom went to CA for a visit, she said as soon as it got below 70 in their house, they panicked and built a fire in the fire place! Mom has always been one to get cold easier than others (that rail-thin body doesn't retain too much heat). But she said she got so hot in their living room she had to retreat to another room! Not sure what happens to snow when its too cold to snow. I guess it just hangs out in the clouds and waits for the right moment? Brrrr Tess! What's the temp there? Right now its 3 degrees here at 11 pm. My "Weather Channel" desktop also says "feels like -7." I guess that's the same thing as wind chill factor? Brrrr! I know what you mean about it being too cold to snow. The air is so crisp and cold it takes your breath away! When we got back from the eye doc this morning, I went to the fridge to get stuff to make breakfast....and I swear it was warmer inside the fridge than it was outside. I briefly considered climbing in to get warm!

The clouds rolled in last night, and fortunately it made things about ten degrees warmer here. So, this morning I had no ice on my windsheild and my pups slept comfy cozy and warm together in their dog house.
