You get a heatwave with snow tomorrow, Jess. What kind of accumulation are they expecting?

Jessica · « **Reply #76 on:** Jan 05, 2010, 09:34:27 PM »

This is from a local meteorologist:

Finally something other than bitter cold to talk about....first we'll talk snow and then we will return to bitter cold chatter! A low pressure center will push through southern Minnesota Wednesday. Snow showers will push from western Minnesota through central and eastern Minnesota throughout the day Wednesday. Southwestern Minnesota could potentially get up to 6" of snow by late Wednesday. Most areas around the metro will recieve 1"-2" of fluffy snow. The arctic air that is over us will make for some very light snow and that will pose a problem by the time we get to Wednesday afternoon. Winds behind this front will usher in a new fresh batch of arctic air. Blowing and drifting will become an issue over most of southern Minnesota later Wednesday. Temperatures will not budge much Thursday or Friday. There is some relief in site with the arctic air retreating by the time we reach Sunday. Belinda Jensen

Where I live, I would say I will get from 2 - 6".

Oh yeah, big heat wave with that snow.

As cold-natured as I have been, I would be moving...

Yea yea... but I'm in Fla. It's not supposed to be that cold here, especially not for 10 days in a row.

The 50 or so star lily plants at my office have all wilted and are laying on the ground dead.

Jessica · « **Reply #80 on:** Jan 05, 2010, 10:11:37 PM »

I have thought about it, Dianna. I even said out loud today. Then I said, but then I would complain that I was too hot.

Penny · « **Reply #81 on:** Jan 06, 2010, 07:05:56 AM »

-9 here and snowing.

I'm Southern and to me its cold as a monkey here in SC....How can you tell if a monkey is cold?? He wears a fur coat

Tina · « **Reply #85 on:** Jan 07, 2010, 02:38:45 PM »

It is 11:37 am my time. It is 70* on my shady back porch. I had to come in to cool off after working outside. I will be complaining of the cold soon enough, this won't last.

I posted the weather somewhere I thought. It's the nicest day we've had in a while sunny, only slight wind, it was cold at 19 degrees but didn't feel so cold but yet today they are calling for snow flurries. I don't want it to snow on our only beautiful day in a while.

Jessica · « **Reply #87 on:** Jan 07, 2010, 02:45:06 PM »

It is cold and snowy. Not as cold as it had been though. The road reports are not looking good right now. Not sure how much longer I will stay at work.

Dianna · « **Reply #88 on:** Jan 07, 2010, 03:29:47 PM »

Safe travels on your way home, Jessica...

Lagree, you are a mess!

It is a beautiful day here with 55° as the temperature. It is supposed to snow tonight between 10 pm and 4 am....

wimc · « **Reply #89 on:** Jan 07, 2010, 04:47:20 PM »

Sunny and windy, 35°F.

sunsoaker · « **Reply #90 on:** Jan 07, 2010, 07:03:36 PM »

It actually warmed up to 58 here today. A nice change. Two weeks ago I would have called it freezing cold. lol. Supposed to start raining shortly and will get down to 29 tonight and we are supposed to get a "wintery mix" in the wee hours. Then tomorrow and the weekend is supposed to be even colder than the past week. Looking forward to it - NOT.

wimc · « **Reply #91 on:** Jan 07, 2010, 07:59:51 PM »

Getting cloudy, quite windy, 34°F, news says we have a slight chance of freezing rain tonight, sure hope not.

bestofour · « **Reply #92 on:** Jan 07, 2010, 10:27:58 PM »

Looking online it's snowing at my house but in my yard it's not.

Triss · « **Reply #93 on:** Jan 07, 2010, 10:36:59 PM »

That happens a lot here as well.

Penny · « **Reply #94 on:** Jan 08, 2010, 07:11:23 AM »

-9 here and snowing

Dianna · « **Reply #95 on:** Jan 08, 2010, 08:03:40 AM »

It is 37° here already and the high today is supposed to be only 40...

I don't see any snow this morning, so I am very happy about that...

Tina · « **Reply #96 on:** Jan 08, 2010, 09:35:45 AM »

It is 60* outside my back door right now at 6:30 in the morning. The sun is beginning to rise and a stong-ish wind is blowing. The wind is a bummer for my plans for the day.

wimc · « **Reply #97 on:** Jan 08, 2010, 09:45:09 AM »

Cloudy and windy, 33°F. No freezing rain, so far, may had some further east.

wimc · « **Reply #98 on:** Jan 08, 2010, 01:43:44 PM »

32°F, windy, freezing rain has come, cars and truck are icy, porch has some, road seems fine for now. Down the road 2 or 3 miles may have alot, usually does.

sunsoaker · « **Reply #99 on:** Jan 08, 2010, 05:02:22 PM »

Our high tempt today was at about 5 a.m. It went down hill from there. We almost got back up to 40. But windchill has been in the 20s all day. This is what I have to look forward to this weekend. An update sent to our email at work.

Good Afternoon Everybody:

Just a short note this afternoon to update max/min temperatures and wind chills over the weekend into the early part of next week.

Key Points:

1.Current guidance suggests the following daily temperature extremes and significant wind chill values:

Saturday, Jan 9th
Min Temps: Around 20, Wind Chill: 8-15;
Max Temps: 40-43, Wind Chill: 30-35

Sunday, Jan 10th
Min Temps: Upper Teens, Wind Chill: 5-10; Max Temps: 42-46, Wind Chill: Around 35

Monday, Jan 11th
Min Temps: Mid to Upper Teens, Wind Chill: Mid Teens; Max Temps: 45-50

Tuesday, Jan 12th
Min Temps: 21-25; Wind Chill: 20;
Max Temps: 55-60

Wednesday, Jan 13th
Min Temps: 28-31;
Max Temps: Upper 50s to Lower 60s

2. Current thinking is a hard freeze each morning through Tuesday morning with milder temperatures beginning during the day on Tuesday.
However, still expecting slightly below normal temperatures each day through the rest of next week with developing low pressure in the western Gulf of Mexico by the weekend. Confidence remains low on the severity.
