Winter

It would appear that winter has struck the USA with its first blast of the season. Linda over in Washington State had the first bout of it, and it is now transferring into the Mid West. By the laws of meteorology, it will move east. The NWS website has this excellent table which shows conversion of windchill factors. Wrap up warm!

  1. I want winter to come this way NOW. They were calling for rain last night to turn into snow by Monday, but it poured down for maybe an hour last night then stopped, and didn't get much colder. It's much too warm here, it's ridiculous.

  2. We're glad it's gone for now but what concerns me is that it seems to be much worse in the middle part of our country.  Those people are really suffering. And of course there's always the potential for it to last longer in that area because their winter weather is worse than ours in the first place. Linda in Washington state

  3. It does sound really cold, we are very lucky I suppose.

  4. Brrr!  I don't even want to look at your little wind chill conversion chart!!  We have, so far, missed the worst of those Mid-West storms (we're sort of Mid-West, in that we're Indiana, but we're actually NOT Mid-West, because we're in the Ohio Valley.), but it has still been cold here.  We didn't have those horrible winds today, though, like we did yesterday, and so far, no real snow.  Our time is coming, though, don't worry.  I hope your weather is settling down where you are.
