This AM...

[Jeanne]

woke up, it is 24 degrees with a wind chill factor of 21 and fluctuating. I live on a major street through town, the cars have been backed up like mad since early this AM, I have watched half a dozen buses slip when stopped since we are on a hill, kids in buses that are ridin the curb- this sucks. No way am I sendin my kids to school in this crud! Esp. since one of mine is a bus rider who rides around 20 miles to school. Yuck!

That is a LONG ride! I think I'd keep 'em home, too. Well, of course the schools wouldn't be open here with snow on the ground, but if we were there I'd do the same thing.

tell me about it. it is only up to 53 so far here this morning. :shock: time to pull out the parka. seriously--down here, this is coooold! i don't envy you at all!

We have temps in the low 30s now. In Buffalo the snow is pretty much nonexistant, but out at our house there's a good seven inches. A nearby town got a foot already! This is actually astonishing, since we usually have a few feet of permasnow (that will last til spring) by mid december.

Gin, I watch the weather up your way b/c (as you know) that's my home town and it looked like ya'll were getting some lake effect on Monday...I usually make a visit after Christmas, but not this year. My bro and my daughter are coming up and my daughter's best friend as well. She has never seen snow, so hopefully there will be some. In keeping w/the cold weather around the country, it was in the 30's here this morning as well, I got to wear my wool coat at least!!

25 yesterday in Boston :?

[Ginevive]

Wow, the 30s in Florida! Never knew it got that cool down there. At least everyone's sharing in the frigid weather; it's only fair.

[Schlyne]

18 degrees yesterday in IL.

[Marla]

It was only 23F when I was driving to work this morning. Yikes!
