    What's the weather like in your area?

    Heavy rain and thunderstorms are expected in metro Atlanta tonight, and the area is under a wind advisory starting at 6 a.m. Wednesday.
    Some of tonight's storms could be severe, with up to an inch of rain in the forecast.
    The wind advisory covers all of north and central Georgia and runs from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Wednesday. The advisory means winds of at least 20 miles per hour, and gusts of 35 miles per hour or stronger, are expected. Winds that strong can make driving difficult and with the saturated ground can take down some trees.

    We've had a rough fall this year where the rainfall has broken all records since 1870 when the Peachtree City weather bureau was founded.
    On the night of 9/15 as much as 24 inches fell here in this county killing or drowning 7 people and washing out over 147 roads and bridges.
    For several days highway connections between the northern and southern parts of the county were cut off and only accessable by emergency vehicles.
    During the height of the storm a convenience store was robbed and the lone employee, a woman, was murdered. I went by the sheriff's office today and viewed the surveillance camera photos. She was lying flat on the floor in surrender, when the killer shot her in the face.

    Cold as hell here. It got up to 31 for a high. The low last night was 19 and it's supposed to be down to 14 tonight.

    The only thing that breaks a cold or hot spell here is rain. And of course, in the winter it starts as freezing rain and that's supposed to start Saturday. That will warm it up though and it should change to regular rain by Saturday night and Sunday it will be back up to 40, which is the normal temperature for around here.

    It was in the 70s--I think the temperature even went up to the 80s--today. Wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't so humid. Even now, it's probably only 60-something-degrees out, but the humidity makes it feel dreadful. I don't think it rained at all today, but it was a little cloudy at times.

    Not that I should complain. I didn't really go outside much today--I've been stuck inside most of the day working on papers (and procrastinating by posting replies/reading threads on RP). :P

    Right now it's -5 and windy. At least the snow isn't hit too hard. Just a few inches

    It's 0100 and it is snowing. Might have started around 0030/0045 as it is sticking and looks to be about an inch or two.

    It's a balmy 14 degrees here at 9:40 a.m. At least there's no wind.

    And no, I don't.

    I was just tickled that no pipes froze last night.... It was 11 years ago when we had the same weather in December. I remember it because our house wasn't quite completed yet and we were living in an old farm house we rented that had almost no insulation and electric heat. We froze our butts off and still had a $250 electric bill for that December.

    You Florida guys have it made. Brrr, its cold here in Vegas too... Barely made it into the mid 40s yesterday. And on Monday and Tuesday we had a chance of UP TO 1 inch of snow.. Didn't happen but we had a chance none the less. I think Reno and Carson City ended up having quite a storm, but thats a ways away....

    It's nasty here. Heavy snow throughout the night, then pouring rain (non-freezing, thank God) in the morning. Slush everywhere. Commuter nightmare. At least my college was closed until noon...

    I hear ya. I have electric heat and last year just about had a heart attack when the first bill came in. Now I keep the heat completely turned off (unless it's gonna be freezing temperatures and I'm worried about the pipes), just wear a hat and winter coat at home, and have a small space heater blow on me when I can't stand it anymore (and after I get out of the shower). I'm so busy with work and school I don't spend much time home anyway.

    A guy at work moved here from Australia a couple years ago. He bought a house and the seller told him all about the benefits of electric heat, i.e. clean, no smell, don't have to worry about propane or oil deliveries in a snow storm, running out of oil, etc. etc. But he never mentioned the outrageous cost. The guy said his electric bill for the first month was about $1,500 and he just wanted to put the house right back on the market. He is distrustful of all Americans now.

    It's been snowing here since about 6 PM yesterday, we've got well over a foot. The blizzard warning remains in effect til midnight tonight.

    I looked outside this morning and decided today was a great day to stay home. I paid $20 to the neighbor kid to shovel my sidewalk and I've been sitting in a warm house in my robe all day.

    I love being self employed.

    Spent yesterday at the Hospital with my F-I-L having his torn Rotator Cuff repaired. Herded my M-I-L back & forth to her house twice for items that they both forgot that he needed for his overnight stay. Rained all day in the 50's.

    Last night, spent the evening with them in his Hospital Room, then took M-I-L home around 2200. Raining hard temps in 60's.

    Rained off and on all night.

    Got up today to go get M-I-L to get F-I-L and take him home. Skies are clear and its drizzling at 72. Get him home, go fill his 'script. Pouring under black sky at 76.

    BTW, I never want to dress my F-I-L again. I pulled his zipper up using my Leatherman Multi-tool pliers.
