What meteorological phenomenon (phenomena) affects you this day ? - Page 804

I'd like at least ONE clear night in the next couple of weeks so I could see comet Ison before he leaves the neighborhood.

Note to self: In the next life, don’t get born next to a swamp.

Yesterday the high temp reached about 75F or so. Today, and for the next few days, it's expected not to get out of the 30s, with sleet and such for the weekend.

Guess I'll toss a roast in the pressure cooker this evening for a wintery comfort food dinner.

Your weather is arriving here today LadyB! Temps in the high 60's F today, showers tomorrow, followed by arctic air! So we may see some sleet/flurries on Saturday if the cold air arrives before the rain clears out. High temps for Sunday in the 30's!

Temps here in the upper 50s (F) with an overcast sky. Possibility of rain through tonight with lows expected to be 32º so bridges and overpasses are likely to be slippery. Glad I'm not driving anywhere tonight.

WT Sharpe · 11-23-2013, 01:20 PM

We've had only early morning sky recently that was clear enough for comet viewing, and I set my alarm clock for the wrong time.

My wife just bought me a telescope for our 41st wedding anniversary. It should be here Tuesday. Hope the weather clears up.

Oh, and oh yeah: winter has returned with a vengeance.

Temps topping out in the 30's F today with winds gusting 30 mph => FREAKING COLD .... especially after our past week with temps reaching the 60's F

Depending on the development of the approaching storm system ... we could have a white Thanksgiving!

56F today and rain forecast for Thanksgiving.

WT Sharpe · 11-24-2013, 03:10 PM

Looks like we'll have good comet viewing weather in the early morning both tomorrow morning and Thursday morning, but the temps will be around 21° F (-6° C) tomorrow morning. Thursday morning should be much better. The temperature is predicted to be around 36° F (2° C). Maybe I'll finally get to see ISON after all, if I don't forget to set my alarm clock for around 4 AM.

EDIT: Looks like it's too late to see it until it returns from its close encounter with the sun—if it survives that encounter.

Yep, co-o-old and windy!

I'm putting in an early request for decent weather on Tuesday -- I have an 8 hour round trip drive that day. Heading north. (The current forecast doesn't look so good.)

WT Sharpe · 11-28-2013, 06:51 AM

Lake DubyaTee (where the pool used to be) has made a return appearance in our backyard, but at least the rain has stopped. Pooh, hopefully this signals relief soon from your migraines.

It's very cold outside, but clear.

WT Sharpe · 11-28-2013, 06:56 AM

Lake DubyaTee.

COLD, clear, bright .... head getting better .... planning on bundling up to look like the Michelin tire man later today and doing some yard work ...

K_Missy · 11-28-2013, 08:24 PM

It's cold here with a dusting of snow

Welcome to the lounge ... is that cat part of your family?

cromag · 12-05-2013, 06:11 PM

Unusually warm today and tonight, accompanied by a heavy mist -- more "granular" than a fog. We're due for dropping temps, rain and some snow this weekend.
