Well on the plus side, it felt like winter walking the dog, but maybe too winter if there’s no precip. Lol.

Just no ice next Monday/Tuesday please. Little worried on that from talk here. Have an event.

16 and a drizzle flurry mix here. Hard to keep windshield ice free while driving. Already saw one car flipped over.

If I can run 3.1 miles in 11F in Ponder, no reason you can't ride your bike in 42F.

Looks like some heavier returns west of Tulsa. Won't take much so cold.

The bigger snow band is just one county north of me lol

Still could be a chance though with a little bit more out west moving in in. Hopefully it doesn't fall apart this time.

A glorious 6F this morning with a -12 windchill! I don’t care if there’s precip or not, this is much more enjoyable than 118F.

Hopefully you agree but a ridge looks to develop over Alaska in the 11-16 day and a SSW has officially been declared and not sure the sensible impacts on how long that usually takes. I know Dr Amy Butler thought this one was more botom up than top down.

16F and had some bouts of legit freezing rain mixed in with continuous flurries and drizzle. Roads are very slick.

Summer's for hibernation, Winter’s my vacation

Don't use my posts as forecast, I'm a complete meteorology noob! I just like cold weather, alright?

All observations I post are for Temple, Texas unless otherwise stated.

We haven't had an official one until yesterday. We had minor weakening of the pv but that's about it.

Had to really slow down from the rain freezing on the windshield that wouldn't melt off. I lived in Michigan for 20 years and never saw anything like this.

Same thing with me. Never seen rain with temps this low. More and more snow now. Roofs starting to become white. Basically no sleet so far.

I know it’s not what you were hoping for but it’s better than nothing. My area will likely not see a drop of anything.
