DU weather check in: snow, ice, rain, flooding, sunny and warm, etc. last weekend & this weekend

[Omaha Steve]

Does anybody know how to post one of those maps so members can make with pins where they are and what the weather there is doing?

Greater metro Omaha currently has light snow. We had no snow, ice, or rain last weekend when the East coast got the round one snow storm.

[TBF]

1. Here on the gulf coast

it's warm and humid/rainy.

60s and overcast this holiday week

[Siwsan]

2. Flint, MI - the ice storm has passed and it's clear, for the moment with light snow later (maybe)

Genesee County has about 20,000 without power. Lots of downed trees and power lines. I've been lucky, so far. I lost my only compromised tree in last month's wind storm and from what I can see at first light, the rest are standing, with limbs in tact.

Our air temp stayed at about 34, in Flint Township, so that somewhat mitigated the damage. We have some scattered power outages but nothing like in the more rural areas.

The power company and road crews are already hard at work so hopefully people won't be in the cold/dark for long.

7. Northern Macomb, MI here......

still an icy drizzle, temps have been at 32o all night and this morning. Weather newscasts reporting 80,000 without power (not me, thankfully) but mostly in northern Oakland. It's supposed to get up to 38o today and I'm hoping the roads are OK because I have to pick someone up at the airport early evening.

I'd rather have snow.

[Siwsan]

12. Flint's been at 34 since last night, and that's our forecast high

But, at least it's above freezing. I am seeing a little bit of melting from the trees and our chance of more precipitation is down to about 30%. Hopefully, hopefully, hopefully things will only improve.

I bet a lot of people were planning airport runs, today. I live close to Flint's airport but haven't heard any flights, today. But, the airport's web site says everything is on time.

[llmart]

14. I have to go to Metro.....

I hate going there even in good weather. It's about an hour's drive for me, but I'll plan for more for today.

[MoonRiver]

3. Got about 6 inches last night in the Midwest.

Roads are clear, though, and I'll be out and about this afternoon.

4. 70 degrees here this morning in Chapel Hill, NC (it should be in the 30's on average)

And we are expecting thunderstorms later today. It's so humid it feels like
a summer morning.

[llmart]

8. Can I trade places with you?

LOL - Love Chapel Hill!

[mnhtnbb]

11. Uh, not trade, but come on down! We need more real Dems in NC!

[llmart]

13. I used to live there for about 10 years.....

in Charlotte. I love NC (except for some of the people; aka Republicans especially the geography of the state.

I was ridiculed for working to elect Harvey Gantt when he ran against that dirtbag Helms.

[Scuba]

5. It's snowing hard here in east central Wisconsin. Ten inches forecast by midnight.

[DrDan]

6. mid-80's, sunny - perhaps record warm temp

no wind, no rain, no snow, no ice, no sleet

just plenty of sunshine and plenty of degrees

[rgbecker]

9. Cape Cod, 55 Degrees, rain coming...windy.

Our two inches of snow is gone three days now and the frost is out of the ground.

30 years here indicates anything is possible in December/January.

[HereSince1628]

10. Snow showers in Milw suburbs...like watching a snow globe

At this point there is no doubt about a white christmas in this area, or any doubt about kids being able to sled, and get completely soaked and cold to the bone during their holiday break from school.

Like those immortal lyrics..."since we've got no place to go....let it snow, let it snow, let it snow..."

[HereSince1628]

19. The snowfall is over...on to snow removal, backaches, heart attacks, etc.

City plow just came by and filled the end of the drive...so I have no reason to put it off any longer.

But first must search the frig for that tiny bottle of nitro pills.

[gollygee]

15. ice here

stepped outside and promptly fell and hurt arm. hope it isnt broken. at least it was my left and I'm right handed.

[Historic NY]

16. 66 degrees and very cloudy here in NY...

calling for thunderstorms. There was a good snow melt overnight. Even the deer are a little whacked out all night my local herd kept running between my house and my neighbors setting off the motion sensor lights.

[fizzgig]

17. 27 in northern colorado right now

30s and 40s in the forecast through next weekend. got a wee dusting of snow yesterday, but we're not likely to see any for christmas.

[Marrah_G]

18. Providence, RI

Warm, wet, humid.

Well, warm for

[Grammy23]

20. NW Florida (Panhandle) WARM and humid....windy and rain on the way!

Highs in the 70s but cooler temps headed this way so by Tuesday highs will be more seasonal. 50s in the daytime and 30s at night. But right now the front is moving through with a ton of wind and warm temps. Humidity feels like being wrapped in a wet blanket! I'll be really glad when it has moved on through. Traveling on Tuesday to Jackson, MS and the weather then is forecast to be OK. It doesn't feel like Christmas when we're running around in shorts and tee shirts!

Happy Holidays to all whether you're celebrating Christmas or some other special time. Or not. Just enjoy!

22. 60 degrees and has been raining all day here in North Georgia.

The rain is expected to taper off by Monday and temperature will be dropping to the 40s in time for Xmas.

[jwirr]

23. Snow off the Lake Superior. Seems like what we are used to so far. About 2 inches. Dry and fluffy.

[MadrasT]

24. Last weekend it was snowing. This weekend it is in the 60's.

Southeast PA.

[steve2470]

25. currently 85 F (record highs), cooling off to 51 by Tuesday

Orlando FL here.

[BeyondGeography]

26. 64 degrees in Columbia County NY

Low on Wednesday will be 8 (high 26); typical early 21st century weather.

[liberal N proud]

27. Sunny and 65 in Cleveland - YES I said sunny in Cleveland

Flooding everywhere though. We had more than 3 inches of hard cold rain Saturday. My sump pump failed last night, fortunately I discovered it before I had a flooded basement. Water was about to top the pit.

Just what I needed 4 days before Christmas $200 for a new Sump Pump. Couldn't find a cheaper model.

The construction they did on the road in front of my house this fall caused my neighbors and my yards to flood. Not sure what to do about that.

[abq e streeter]

28. Sunny and cold in Albuquerque

It's colder here than many people seem to think.We're a mile high and closer to being like a southern Denver than some place really hot like Phoenix or Las Vegas. High about 40 today then back to mid to upper 40 's (IOW, normal for winter) the rest of the week. Lots of sunshine. We got a dusting of snow a couple of nights ago,btw.

[Johnny Noshoes]

29. Here in NYC

It is 68 degrees, gray skies and humid. Tuesday night it is supposed to go down to 16 degrees. Normally I'm in New Hampshire spending the holiday with my sister, brother-in-law and the labs. My sister and her husband went to Utah to spend the holiday with her son and his girlfriend. So I'll be here in NY with friends. I was joking with my sister that I'm going to miss the labs the most. The dogs are great on Christmas morning when they get their gifts from "Santa Paws"

[Bennyboy]

30. Back to wearing shorts and T-Shirts in NORCAL....

Gonna be around 60 here in Grass Valley, about 1500 feet in the foothills. We are doomed.


At the ski resorts, they are doomed. No snow for Thanksgiving and now none for Christmas. Doomed. lots of people laid off, some have left for whiter pastures. No snow to speak of and the daytime temps are too high for what they make to keep over the daytime.

No snow and the farmers are doomed.

[Blue_In_AK]

31. Anchorage - 30 and light snow.

No wind. It looks like winter wonderland around here...we've had close to a foot of snow this week. The trees and everything look magical with the frost and snow.

[Omaha Steve]
