Woke up to 16* weather today, looks like Winter has finally arrived. I tossed a couple of logs on the outdoor furnace, made some coffee and now I'm waiting for the sun to warm things up a bit..

Whats the weather look like for everyone else?
 
We just came off a weeklong cold snap here in Western Washington state; high temps in the mid-teens and lows at 9-10 F. And, just to make things interesting, we had several inches of snow and winds in the 30-50 mph range. Can you say "sub-zero wind chill" or "snowdrift?" Had to plow our 1/2-mile lane several times.

This morning, it is a balmy 46 degrees! Nice to be in the middle of a "heat wave."

Woke up this morning to 53f, currently 69 and forecast is for a high 77* in Casa Grande ?
 
LOL, I’m in Sydney, Australia, where it’s 98*...height of summer for down under!
 
43F here this morning in West Central FL. Supposed to dip into the 30s tomorrow morning.
 
Lucky you, @Akdare, it's another wonderful morning of 15* today. The Dragon was out of wood so I'm was out there splitting kindling to get it roaring again. On a side note, coffee is good!
 
It's 49 degrees and rain here in Benson, Az. Only supposed to get up to 58 today. Was 70 yesterday........

More rain today, forecast calls for 100% all day long!

It's a double edged knife I guess. We get our water from a spring and every year around October it gets down to a trickle. So we count on the winter snow & rain to saturate the mountains and charge up the aquifer(s). Last year the springs got so slow that I bit the bullet and had a well drilled. We got lucky and got 20 gpm on the first try. Had to go 550' which sucks, but at least we got water. Lots of people out here end up with dry wells and have to drill again. We're still using the spring as our main source, but we now we have the well for backup.

So yeah, it's raining...
 
Today it's snow. Not a lot, but still it's snow. Meanwhile, @Akdare's probably headed for the beach.
 
Alas, not. I’m at Uluru (Ayers Rock). It’s 107*. And flies. So many flies. But also flocks of pink & gray cockatoos. Weirdly beautiful.

32* outside and I'm hoping the sun comes out. We've forgotten what it looks like. Please, no more rain, I have an RV roof to paint and solar panels to install.
I think it's time to sacrifice a chicken to the rain-gods... ;)

Sacrifice was a failure, it's now snowing. :(
 
Left 73 degrees in Florida, arrived back home in Virginia, and this morning it's 24 degrees! Brrrr!!
 
43* here right now, but it's supposed to be in the 60's today and tomorrow. We planned this weekend's camping trip when the weather said it was going to be in the 60's tomorrow and Sunday, but now there is supposed to be a huge plummet in temp on Sunday (down to the teens and 20's). We are still going camping, lol. But we will have to head home early.
 
Snowing again.

I give up. :(
 
48* here in SE Arizona now, but a high of 73* expected. Bottom drops out by Tuesday.......... Low of 21*!!!
