Weather in overseas... Over here in this part of Germany it's getting pretty cold, a bit snow, actually freezing rain and a lot more snow expected for the next few days.

Gosh It's lovely grey raining and a warm temp of 40 right now here in Bubba Hell of Perry Georgia, which is 2 hours south of Atlanta. Wonderful Scottish weather. Very dark! I come alive in this type of weather. I know I'm weird. If I was up in NC mts I'd feel like I'd died and went to heaven. Going to rain here for the next couple of days, yea! Plants need the rain ya see.

It's cold and nasty in Cincinnati, Ohio. We got 6.5 inches ofsnow yesterday, and about an inch of ice on top of that. The temp has now reached 27 and is expected to get to 41 by this afternoon, with a touch of rain. Then it is to drop back down tomorrow, and then more freezing rain, and snow.

Had about 8 inches of snow this morning in Baltimore and still coming down. My normal 1 hour commute to DC for work took 2 hours. It's supposed to turn into freezing rain later on today and should make the drive back home FUN.
Kinda cool here this morning, lower 80's Farenheit (26.6-27 for you Celsius folks), sunny, dry, nice breeze ruffling the palm fronds. Same thing expected until about April.

It's now -33*C (-27.4*F) and there's months of snow everywhere. -46*C (-50.8*F) with the windchill. Frickin' fridgid. It's supposed to be around -6*C (21.2*F) this time of year.
Brutal.
The ol' Supertruck wouldn't even fire up this morning, so Ange had to drive me to work, which took about an hour, because people around here seem to forget how to drive in the winter every damn year.

Now, that IS cold...no problem if you have the time to sit near the warm fire-place; but no fun at all if you have to drive to work!
It really seems to be a phenomenon that with the first few snow flakes falling most people seemingly forget all they ever had learnt about driving. It's the same thing here and it's very annoying!
It has been brutal this winter up there. Wonder what's going on with the weather patterns this year? You guys need a big fireplace to build a roaring one in and just stay there for the duration. I do sympathize.

Definitly!!!! Oh, wait a minute...or should we all send him our heating bills to pay for them?????
Well, where I live in California it has been gloomy for two weeks.. I know I should not complain because there is some parts of the world that is frozen.. But no sunlight for two weeks gets depressing.. Yesterday was sunny with a breeze and I was able to relax in the hot tub. Today is not that sunny.
Sunny here. T-shirt weather. Front and back doors open. The Weather guessers think it might be a little cloudy tomorrow, possibly drizzle a little, then back in to the 70's.
