We've sure had some weird weather here in the northwest  We have went from warm to cold to freezing to flooding to high winds and now........we have a storm that came down from Alaska and brought us snow this morning with arctic temps............Brrrrrr! They say it's suppose to last into next week with temps in the teens and maybe lower in some places.........Brrrrrrrr.......I sure hope we don't lose our power again  How's the weather in everyones elses neck of the woods? |

It has been warmer then normal around here by about 20 degrees, and lately WINDY as heck. But the front is on its way here also, should be here by the weekend they say. The temps are expected to drop severely by tommorrow. At this point it is a bit too early for them to make any kind of accurate forecast. I hope you don't lose power too. That would be very bad.

not too bad here; got cold before christmas down to -5c but fairly warm at present; foggy in morning: have had snow up country but nothing so far here; just aswell as our gas is running out for the heating and wont be able to top it up for the minute; have got a booking for the gite; so things are looking a bit hopeful; lets hope we get a lot more!
