Harry Potter Fans With No Life

temps were cold this morn; the wind picked up, a snow squall went through and then voilà - the air started getting warmer. Yay! Supposed to be a bit warmer than seasonal for the next couple weeks.

Howler, we've got the same mess here. Snowing like hell. At least it's all fluff BUT that lets the wind blow it all over the place. Temps dropped like a rock. Right now...8 degrees, -17 wind chill. Started snowing about 11:00, flared up big time, let us go home at 2:00. Had to shovel what looked like a good 5" inches to make a path so I could get my car in the driveway when I got home this afternoon. At least the end of my driveway has been plowed since then. Sunny but cold tomorrow before the next round Saturday.

Very windy today, and temps. nearing 50°F today.

Moo - how is it possible that we get the same weather and it just skips over Paint's place.
maybe he cast a weather jinx over his area.

NO! I'm thinking you guys have hexed my area.



The latest system passed north of me.

Trust me Paint - Moo & Figgy and I are doing everything possible to send the nasty weather you like, to you. And you know that the power of three witches is strong! We got the north, east and west covered ... Got to be you blocking it ... hahahah

more fog yesterday morning ... always makes driving to work fun, fun, fun
our temps are rising. We are expected to get above zero all week. yay - except now, all that snow we got is going to get slushy, nasty, and freeze over night in icky ruts.

Not as windy today, but still well above freezing.

Yesterday Denver set a new record high, beat the old record by nine degrees to hit 80F/26.66C. Its supposed to go back to normal today, but that was the highest ever recorded in the Month of February since they started keeping records. Up here was maybe ten lower, still shirt-sleeve and soak up the sun weather.

Yup. Keep trying to get it to Paint's neck of the woods but just doesn't want to. Been windy and cold, cold, cold. Only light snow today but the winner for the weekend...blizzard warning until late Monday into Tuesday, 18 - 24 inches starting sometime Tomorrow afternoon or evening. Paint...apparate on over any time you're ready.
