We love to talk about all aspects of weather, the effect on our gardens, and on our lives. It's a good place to keep a record of weather in our gardens from year to year too, so for that reason let's try to stay as close to the topic as we can. Please join in and tell us about your weather.

In the 50s with rain for a couple of days, clear and 70s by Christmas on the Alabama Gulf Coast zone 8.5, Have a great holiday season everyone.

It is still cold here, but not as bad as the last couple of days. Today the high is forecast to be 14 F or -10 C. The low tonight will be 12 F or -11 C. Tomorrow is supposed to be much milder.

I should move to Florida for the winter.

Or Arizona, Rita!

We woke up to 5 inches or so of snow, and fogged in, cleared up by 1 pm. Sun popped out for a little while, 35 F, so warm enough for some melting.
Snow photos so Linda won't bug me. Click to see the full beauty of freshly fallen snow.


The mountains dissapeared in the heavy fog, then the fog lifting with a streak of blue.

Fresh snow always looks prettier when it's somewhere other than here Beautiful images Margaret.

Cold start with - 2. It was clear out when I got up but by the time the sun was up it hazed over. Heavier clouds this afternoon kept the temp from going higher than 20. would have been warmer if the sun was out. Looking forward to the warmer temps coming in for the next week!

Anywhere the temp stays 50's - 70's year round would be perfect

Those temps get dull after a while, Char! .

Margaret. You are on my good list now! Of course you doing a snow angel would get you even more points.

Beautiful Margaret!

50/29 here. 70% humidity has it feeling damp. Humidity, Bah! Makes it hotter in the summer and colder in winter. What's up with that?

Thank you Char, Linda and Will, glad you enjoyed my snowy photos, it is beautiful.

Just catching up a little. Parkas on the mosquitoes

Gorgeous Margaret

Thank you, Ginny.

lovely photos, Margaret. I particularly like the one with the streak of blue sky.

No snow here.. to be 70F on Christmas day after 35F this morning.

Thank you, Valerie.

Much colder this morning, overcast, calm winds, 21, 10% chance of a flurry.

Much milder here after our cold snap. It is currently 37 F or 3 C this afternoon. The snow and ice is melting off the trees, so I hope to see the bent branches come back up.

50/42
Got my Christmas shopping done after work. Didn't want to face that chore with the rain coming in. Timed it just right. Weather gurus are calling for about 2" tonight and tomorrow. Should be in the low 60s for Christmas.

Mostly high hazy clouds today with the sun breaking through late afternoon. Started with a temp of 8 and warmed to 36 with warmer air moving in from the south. You could feel the cold radiating off the snow in between the light warmer breeze. Temps are suppose to level out and be more reasonable for the next week.

Will , we are supposed to get a good dose of rain all Christmas eve day and more later!
