What's The Temperature Where You Are?
National Weather Service ^ | 12/31/17 | ROCKLOBSTER

Posted on 12/31/2017 3:01:17 PM PST by ROCKLOBSTER

Dangerously cold temperatures will be in place tonight to ring in the new year for many locations located east of the Rocky Mountains. Locations across the Northeast and as far south as Kansas into Ohio will be below zero at midnight with wind chills of -20 to -40 for many of these locations. Therefore, locations from northeastern Montana into portions of the Midwest and Northeast are under a Wind Chill Warning with Wind Chill Advisories in place as far south as the central Gulf Coast through Monday morning. Monday's highs will stay below freezing for much of Texas to the Carolinas which is a good 20 to 30 degrees below average.

Winter weather advisories are currently in effect for western and northern Texas as well as across the lower Mississippi valley where light accumulations of snow and freezing rain could cause slick conditions through Monday morning. Monday evening through Tuesday will be mostly dry across the lower 48 with the exception of rain showers for Florida and snow showers the Great Lakes. Snowfall accumulations downwind of the Great Lakes are expected to be locally heavier across the eastern U.P. of Michigan and east of Lakes Erie and Ontario where additional totals of roughly 6-12 inches are in the forecast through Tuesday evening.

Needless to say, temperatures will remain well below average for most locations east of the Rockies into the middle of the week but some moderation is expected across the central and northern High Plains starting Tuesday with downslope flow developing. The Southwest will remain warm and dry into the middle of the week with temperatures ranging between 5 to 15 degrees above early January normals.

Husband says that it’s ‘too cold to snow’ here

Careful, that sounds a lot like 'famous last words'   ;-)

I hope not. I love it, but can do without it this year.

We went through our annual latitude adjustment to avoid the winter weather.

High of 79 most days this week here at our desert Lab in Rancho Mirage, CA 92270. Clear, sunny, wind at zero mph. Went swimming four times this week, in the Back pool heated to 80 degrees, then into the spa at 102 for eleven minutes. Fluffy clouds today, high temp dropped to 75. Wind whipped up to one mph. Low expected to be 50 tonight.

Happy New Year to all! MAGA 2018 & onward!

I can handle the cold for awhile, as long as we don’t get tons of snow and, especially, ice.

I had a bone fracture as an adult caused by slipping on ice. It's not an experience I intend to repeat.

I had a bad fall once, too. You get to where you just don’t ‘bounce’ like little kids, anymore ;-)

Yes, it’s been very pleasant here since our windstorms the week before Christmas stopped. See people in shorts and flip flops in stores...I think there’s a tad too much chill at night for that myself. February will be soon enough to plant tomatoes and break out the summer wear ;-)

bounce? I wonder if maybe I shouldn’t try to lose that extra fluff I have. It hurts too much already to fall.

I’d think some fluff might protect you :-)

Our high today was -1, around midnight. Last I looked, it was about 8 below. I think it is expected to get to 20 below or colder tonight. Omaha, Nebraska

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
