22° on my front porch, going down to between 7° and 9° and that's cold for down here. I just saw 2 sundogs, hope they're not omens of snow or ice coming.

Scoot, can't recall the scientific name offhand, but they are/look like miniature suns on either side of the sun with vertical rainbows. Sometimes there is only one but today I saw two. And sometimes they occur directly overtop of the sun, but I've never seen that. Apparently they're caused by the sun reflecting light off of ice crystals.

We are in Ireland on vacation. In a small town called Clonmel. It is about 10 degrees celcius and pouring. I have never seen rain like this in my life.

Pippin I hope it doesn't rain your entire holiday! I hope you get lots of sunshine and decent weather so you can enjoy the sights. I've always wanted to see Ireland, I've heard the scenery is spectacular.

17 degrees and sunny here with a wind chill of 7. That still feels much better than our below zero temperatures and extremely cold wind chills of last week!

We got FIFTEEN inches of snow yesterday! Most of it came in about 12 hours, too. Today we warmed up to 17 and saw the sun! Thank heavens we didn't get wind w/the snow, because it was the dry, fluffy kind, and we would have been totally drifted in. As it was, I got stuck in the driveway w/my 4WD Jeep, but it was mainly because it was so white you couldn't tell where the driveway was, and I went into a snow pile going around the corner by our barn. It's been plowed, so now we can see the two to three feet of snow on the ground, and the piles are at least 10 feet tall!

Ok - revision. Final total was 20 inches! Totally beautiful today, though, with sun, snow covered trees, and snow up to the bottoms of stop signs. The piles of snow in the school parking lot - well over 10 feet!

And I came to complain about 54 today in central Florida. Guess I should slink back and be grateful.

Cold & still snowing. 24° & 3-4 inches so far. This is a big deal down here. Lots of rural areas with steep hills so schools are closed & have heard that roads are icing over, lots of cars in ditches.

We're going into our 4th day of heavy dangerous winds...hundreds of trees down all over the area. And thousands have lost their electricity off and on over the days. It's cold too!
