Peacefield Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 LOL! Thats like when Northerns come to South Carolina during the winter months. We call it a cold snap when the temps reach 65. They come down wearing shorts and flip flops! It's this time of year that I start daydreaming about the day I can move to the SE, Virginia! Just today I was looking up the income and property tax rates of NC, SC and VA! It's currently 41f here (5c) but this time tomorrow it will be 34 (1c) and we are forecast to be under 8-12" of snow But I won't complain, since come January I'll be longing for warm 30+ degree days...

Onion Budgie Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 We haven't had any settling snow for years now, in the area where I live. I miss it. There's nothing like waking up of a winter morning, throwing open the curtains and seeing a mass blanket of beautiful white. Rain and hail here today, grey skies and bleurgh.

At least where you're at, there's no confusion with the weather. I swear I have to dress in layers and everyday is a toss up "heat, no heat, open windows, closed windows, boots, flip flops." My campus is a campus of confusion. Kids are wondering around with coats, shorts, boots and sweaters. I really need SC to do better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madeleine Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 65 is like spring here, we went to Spain one December where it was in the 60s, and we were in shorts and T shirts, and the locals were wearing fur coats! Thankfully we don't get too much in the minus here, usually about minus 1 or 2, and snow rarely settles deeply, just as well really as an inch throws London into chaos!

Nollaig Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Gotten much colder again, which I'm delighted about. Today there's a thick layer of grey cloud overhead, but it's not raining and it's not particularly dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Athena Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 We had a very stormy day yesterday. Gladly the damage here wasn't that bad, but in Arnhem 5 people (1 family and 1 seperate person) got several injured after windscreens standing outside of a restaurant by their outside chairs blew over into them while they walked past. In true Dutch fashion though, the championship of 'cycling against opposite wind' was not cancelled, due to protest of the participants and was held as usual. I had no idea there was even such a thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shirley Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 The storm we were supposed to get yesterday never happened but today is very windy and pouring down with rain. A day to stay inside in the warmth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talisman Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 It was freezing here today, or not far off it. I don't think the temperature went above 3 or 4 degrees all day, and tomorrow is set to be colder still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chesilbeach Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 It was -1ºC when I went out this morning, so had to scrape the ice of my car windows, and it's only about 3ºC now, so still pretty chilly. Hat, scarf and gloves weather - I love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
