Same here in Tucson, Arizona. 30F outside when I went to work and high of 40F.

REALLLY cold here. Normally were in 60s or 70s right now.

Because of today's temp, it will be REALLY cold tonight.. like 12F or something.



eh... got down to 15F last night. Tucson Water had massive machine failures and a large part of city, including me, is without water. Looks like its a half day depending on when water is back to flowing.



Yeah, it's pretty cold in North Texas too.  We're on our third ice day (work asked up to come in if roads near us weren't bad) and it's going to snow/ice again tonight.

Usually, when it ices in Texas (happens once or twice a year) the temperature will stay in the upper 20's to low 30's for a day and then go to the upper 30's to low 40's so that ice is pretty much gone the next day.  Starting Monday night, we haven't really gotten higher than the mid to low 20's and it has been pretty consistently in the teens so the ice has stuck around.  That's really weird even for Texas weather and has totally disrupted everything.  Now of course it's going to start snowing and icing again tomorrow just when the roads are almost getting driveable.

The worst thing about ice in Texas is drivers are just freaking stupid.  Driving in the ice isn't hard, you just drive slow, pay attention, and have patience.  I had to go to the grocery store Tuesday afternoon when it was the worst since I really didn't have any food in my home and I was completely reminded why Texas sucks when there's ice.  There were people driving 50MPH on the completely iced over roads passing people and sliding all over the place.  It just completely amazes me how stupid people can be. 

Yesterday I look out my window at my street and I see some moron in an SUV trying to drive down the completely iced over street and utterly failing.  He had his gas petal floored with tires completely spinning and going nowhere.  I'm just plain astonished he didn't slide and hit a car parked on the street or slide into someone's yard.

So yeah, damn cold here too (19F) and going to be shitty tomorrow too.  At least I got out of the house today.  If anything, this should make the Superbowl in Dallas interesting.



Today will remain cold for me too. Highs in the 30's. But tomorrow will get to 60s and 70s the day after for the foreseeable future. Can't wait to get back to normal weather.

I could not stop laughing at this since it's pretty appropriate for today:



Weather bores me and exites me at the same time. I know it's erratic and unpredictable with the modern systems of prediction and manipulation we use unintentionally and intentionally...  So yeah.



I thought it was cold here in Las Vegas.

Then i went back to Ohio.

For the last couple weeks even though it's gotten coder, i've been fine.



Life here in San Jose is awesome this Winter  Most of January has been sunny and in the low 70's,  December was for the most part slightly cloudy and in the 60's.  Today is picturesque, couldn't ask for better conditions.  Our rainfall is below average, but our immediate surroundings are far above average, and since we get our water from them we're in great shape there too.  I think we stole everyone else's good winter weather!



Well its bloody hot in NSW Australia... Waking up with swet drenching your pyjamas is not fun.
