yes, bee, i am. i cannot stand the weather changes. people complain about how it is cold all the time, i would rather have cold all the time...then have to get up everyday and check the weather to see what the weather is going to be like to decide what to wear...like you said, uggs or flip flops. it's ridiculous!

I swear the flipping weather is why everyone stays sick around here. You never know what it's going to be like from day to day. We don't have spring and fall, we just have cold and hot and it changes daily, sometimes even from morning to night. Yesterday was so cold all day long, Monday it snowed, today its nice enough to leave the back door open!

Wargod I agree we do not have a spring in Boston anymore. It goes from being winter (30's and 40's) to being summer (80's and 90's). as a kid I remember having a spring/fall jacket and a winter jacket. Now it is just a winter jacket.

The sun is shining but it is still colder than normal here. We just are not used to cold weather here and I think that is why we feel it more than those that live in colder areas. War, keep washing your hands and have the kids wash hands more often.

65 degrees at 8 a.m. in sunny Florida. Birds are chirping. A seabreeze is blowing. It's heavenly.

Not heavenly here! Temp is OK, about 50 right now and that is above average. However, the wind is about 50mph, too, with gusts up to 71mph so far. Not as bad as tornados, but sustained winds like that (all day into tonight) does a lot of damage. Trees down everywhere, power out in many places, roofs blowing all around, cars damaged by debris, just a regular mess. My office will be crazy for a week, at least. Wish me luck! And they're calling for rain/snow on Saturday!

We lost many mature trees last night, the ground was saturated from the rapid melt-off and the wind knocked them over by the roots. One particular old willow right outside our lake-side window was split down the middle and broken off at the roots. But we have power, so we can't complain too much. Temperature is 45-ish.

lots and lots and lots of rain. should be a small break today, but rain all today *hopefully*. we are at 74.7% of our normal rainfall. 43 degrees right now. wondering if my ONE class that i have today is worth trudging through the rain for.

We haven't got the rain yet, though I did get sprinkled on taking Caleb to school this morning. There's lots of dark coulds and it's pretty breezy, but it's not all that cold.

Lets talk about the weather. I told all you people in snowy places I didn't want your snow and here you go sending it right back to me! What's up with that??? This morning was mild enough that I opened the backdoor for the dogs to go out and pretty much forgot it was open. See what I said at 9:44..."it's not all that cold." Bout 2 hours ago it was cooler so I shut the door but other than an off and on (mostly off) sprinkling, we haven't had much else today. Went to take a shower about an 45 minutes ago and actually turned on the heater cuz it was cool enough in the back of the house to be unpleasant. Hopped in the shower and had no sooner finished washing my hair (hair first, then body) when the water all of a sudden turned freezing cold! I'm quick in the shower, that shouldn't have happened and I couldn't figure out why it did, but hurried through the rest of my shower. Hopped out and got dressed and walked out ot the living room to get my brush and there's not only huge chunks of snow falling but because it didn't rain that much this morning it's already sticking to the ground! And it's still coming down! Haven't checked the thermometer yet, but the temps have had to drop at least 15 degrees in the last couple of hours. It's cold enough that after turning the hall heater off, I had to turn the thermostat on in the living room. Someone take your snow back, please! This is just bizarre, we get snow every 6-7 years here and now this is the third time this winter we've gotten it, twice with enough to actually stick!

55° sunny & breezy but last night around 10pm we had a severe thunder & lightning storm with heavy rain. Weather radio said there was some rotation indicated but, thankfully, nothing ever came of it.
