14° here this morning with 4" of snow from yesterdays storm. Hopefully warmer weather on the way this weekend. Been a cold winter all around this year.
It's not been bad here compared to some. We have just been cold. We hit a low of 3ş yesterday morning but this morning we are warmer at 18ş and it's supposed to ge much better to a high of 70ş Saturday. I've had to wood burning stove going full blast so nice and cozy except when I have to go back outside for more wood.
Two weeks ago we called our plumber to come replace a frost-proof faucet used to water our cows because I've done it 3 times already in the last 15 years we've been here and I'm just too lazy to do it again this time. Can't use it anyway since the tank valve and tank are froze so we called them and said they could skip us until the ground thawed. You would not believe how much they appreciated it. Said they are so backlogged with broken pipes to fix that being able to skip us was much appreciated. Only takes about 3 hours but you got to dig down almost 3 feet and I'm just getting lazy in my old age. Plus I like the faucet they use compared to the one I can get. I've had them replace another that I've had similar failures with. The crap they sell at Home Depot and such are a waste of time in most cases.
The only reason some people are still alive is it's illegal to shoot them.

This single didget stuff to be out of here today for most of us for a while. Need Mr Sun ☀️ to shine upon us and melt what’s here. I’ll take the up n down temps, just hate those single number nights, creates work and damage come spring. Plus it seems that the darkness has taken over . Stay warm.

Single digits here this morning, but supposed to get to 30 today and the next couple days. We had snow earlier in the week and always seem to have wind. The 30's will feel good but so much salt and crampon the roads from the ice that riding would be a disaster. Unfortunately we probably have 2 months left. Last year we were riding by the 3rd week of Feb. but that's pretty rare. Have a safe day!!

Yesterday morning when I got up it was 1. Today it was 8 and is supposed to get up to 20 by this afternoon. A few days ago, it rained (misty drizzle) in the morning, then light snow in the afternoon with the temps dropping the entire day until it was in the teens. That left a real nice (not!) layer of ice everywhere. It's SUPPOSED to warm up somewhere around 45 for the weekend, but it plunges right back down below freezing again next week......with some flurries. In other words, the weather has been a total mess with no end in site. I really feel for those in the South that get snow. I lived in southern Georgia for 4 years and I know they can't handle it at all. They don't know how to drive on slippery roads and they have no idea how to deal with it. I have a friend in Sarasota and it was 44 there day before yesterday. She thought it was really bad. I'd love for it to be 44 here for a few days.
Morning lady's and Gents.
At 8;30 this morning temp was 43 with a high of 70 today.
But winter cold is coming the Phoenix valley this weekend.
Lows around 36 on Sat with a high of only 58
But by Monday highs in the mid to upper 60's.
So even in the valley of the SUN it's gets cold at this time of the yr too.
You guys in FLA have cold Orange juice right off the trees
about 12* 4 in snow. going to warm & rain this week-end in Dayton
I'd love to be able to say "cold" and "lows around 36 high of 58" in the same sentence. Reminds me of a business trip years ago to Costa Mesa. We were in a Sears store comfortably wearing tank tops, shorts and sandals. The girl in front of us was wearing sweat pants and was buying a hoodie. She told the check out girl not to put it in a bag because she was going to put it on. She explained she was from Miami and wasn't used to the cold. I guess it's all relative. In the winter one persons cold is another persons pretty decent.
Only a few inches of snow but I live in a private community and they do not salt the roads
So the roads are solid ice
I have not been able to make it into work for 2 days
Thank you

I guess *29 is the most popular temp, lol. Anyway it's been around that + or - a couple degrees for a couple days. Add in a bit of snow and sleet and its crazy for this time of year down here. Coldest November since 1959 according to local weather. But it is supposed to reach *60 on Saturday - yea!
29° & Sunny. The High today in the mid 60's. More rain predicted for Sunday.
Here in WV, we are in a pocket of rain. Everything around here had some ice, it can stay away. When I look at the weather at my home in NM, it is cold in the mornings, 11 has been the coolest this season, but warms up nicely in the day. It is time to be back in the desert. Jim
