45 here now but quite windy and big time wind alerts from 9 AM to 5 PM. I wonder how the wind knows that it's supposed to stop at 5 PM.

Southeast, MA(Zone 6b)

Not bad for this time of day at the end of Jan. Quite breezy and overcast with 34 degrees. Should get into the mid 40s with a sprinkle or two. As I recall last year at this time we were in the middle of weeks of 0 to single digit highs so this is really nice, particularly on the heat bills. Should last at least through the weekend.

Appleton, WI(Zone 5a)

I'm in for the day.
Sunrise was nice today at about 6:30.

North Augusta, ON

Cold and VERY windy. The window panes are rattling, gusting to 120 km, blowing snow. Can't decide if I'm going to work tonight, don't really want to leave the house alone in this stuff.

(Arlene) Southold, NY(Zone 7a)

Al's minus 40 and threegardeners winds make me feel our 45 and very light rain is almost tropical.

Southeast, MA(Zone 6b)

Brrrr! I agree the rain looks really nice after reading Al and 3G's posts. Its grey windy dismal and wet, but at least its above freezing. Can't ask for more than that at the end of Jan. Stay in, build a fire and stay warm you guys.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Yeah my 40 and rain is a blessing!

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Cleared up suddenly - sunny, windy and 40 now.

North Augusta, ON

Worse here, snowing and blowing so hard I can barely see the house across the road. Still debating the work thing tonight. Waiting for the crash of the super tall Manitoba Maple directly across from me, the one I have been fighting with the Township over ever since it split up the middle last summer. The one whose side branches are long gone and is just a straight trunk shooting for the sky, poised to pounce on my poor unsuspecting home...

(Arlene) Southold, NY(Zone 7a)

Good luck. That's an awful threat to have hanging over your head or your property.

Thomaston, CT

It's 42 here, partly sunny, but the wind is gale force--cannot walk across the dam today, I'd be blown downriver, or someplace!

(Arlene) Southold, NY(Zone 7a)

We also have 42 degrees but wind gusts to 38. Very bright sunshine but the winds will keep me indoors today.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Just came in. Temp dropped a bit to 38 and it's very windy!

Shelburne Falls, MA(Zone 5a)

Crazy day. Warm and rainy this AM. Gloomy with wind. Then snow showers. Now sunny and windy. Phew!

(Zone 4a)

We had a flash freeze today after a ton of rain overnight!!!! The winds have been frightingly cold and the ground is so hard now that everything is frozen!!!

(Arlene) Southold, NY(Zone 7a)

It's rather soggy here. The scarecrow's dress dried out in about 20 minutes with the winds we've been having.

North Augusta, ON

Still snowing like crazy here, the wind hasn't let up. The cats are all grumpy. Must be the wind maybe? Mom is panicking cause of the wind and calling every half hour if she hears a thump.

S of Lake Ontario, NY(Zone 6a)

21, with a wind chill of -5, and wind gusts of 47-52 mph. A restaurant near my office lost its roof.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Wow - that's scary. We're having gusts of about 45.

S of Lake Ontario, NY(Zone 6a)

My co-worker asked me if I saw it, and I said no - and she's like - don't you see all the firetrucks? I was just happy to get to the office without something blowing on top of me - the traffic lights really get swinging and they are heavy!

Appleton, WI(Zone 5a)

You got the hanging light there? We always see those in MI. Ours are on poles.
Sucks on the wind and flash freeze.
Never made it above 0 today.

Eastern Long Island, NY(Zone 7a)

Nice 9:18 Al! Reflected light from underneath the tree. ☺

36° F

(Arlene) Southold, NY(Zone 7a)

The wind finally has quieted down and we're at 37. Easier to sleep without the freight train winds.

Appleton, WI(Zone 5a)

G'night Pirl ;)

Thanks WC, no that's about an 1/8" of frost.

This was the shot there I liked - although it's not scenic.

Cool - looks like a sand storm.

(Arlene) Southold, NY(Zone 7a)

Not yet, Al. Give me another year or three.

Neat photo. Reflections are interesting.

Eastern Long Island, NY(Zone 7a)

Very nice... you should exhibit in an art gallery! ☺

Long Island, NY(Zone 6b)

Blue Skies this morning. 20°.

Celeste - I didn't move out...they moved away! Actually, I moved out when I was ~20. They retired to NC around 15 years ago. Best thing they ever did. They would never be able to live the way they do up here in NY.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

20 here as well. NC is very nice. What part of the state are they, Anita?

Nantucket, MA(Zone 7a)

Gorgeous out today, it should be in the high 30's with the rest of the week warmer much warmer. Rain tomorrow, but no snow. But I have my first real batch of snow drops up. Patti

Wind from the NNW at 12 MPH
Visibility 10 miles

Relative Humidity 53%

North Augusta, ON

Cold and clear, the wind has finally subsided. I see my computer is flashing winter storm warning advisories for late tonight, and all day Friday, up to 35cm of new snow predicted. Gonna hit you guys/gals first.

(Arlene) Southold, NY(Zone 7a)

Do you subscribe to WeatherBug, too? They're predicting rain for tomorrow and into the night, for us, followed by warm winter weather (mid 40's) for quite a few days, as Patti said.

North Augusta, ON

Never tried WeatherBug, just the Weather Channel. Maybe I'll go check them out, see if they have better news for me :)
