How's your weather today, where you live?

This is getting a bit ridiculous! We have near blizzard conditions around here today. Picked up nearly 8"-10" of new snow and that's with much of it melting at the same time because it is right around that freezing mark. This is April 18? I don't ever recall having snowstorms one after the other like this ever especially at this late time of the year. Unbelievable! Well, I have to believe it. I can see it with my own eyes and feel it when I work that shovel.

Wow, colder in Minn. than in Canada.... :)
 
Welcome back, farouk!


So my area has completely skipped spring and went from arctic winter straight to summer. We've been having sun and 25-ish Celsius the whole week.

Here are a couple shots of the landscape this morning. If we get sun today I suspect we'll see a lot of melting.

This one is facing SW across our horse pasture and my wheat fields. I suspect I will not be putting wheat seed in this year.

This one is looking SE across my hay fields. Don't think I'll be cutting hay for a while yet.

[MENTION=91320]Claudya[/MENTION] : Ty ! good to be back.
[MENTION=45432]WIP[/MENTION] : Great shots! it's as if you guys are still in February or March...

Ontario: Cool, dull but dry today.
 
@WIP : Great shots! it's as if you guys are still in February or March.

Interesting you should say that. This morning my neighbor commented that it was like a "bad March."
 
Obadiah, you managed to deliver a weather report in the most exact and precise way it can be done; and yet noone here will understand it. Good job. :lol

LOL. Just having a little fun! Basically it's partly cloudy with a little breeze and reasonably comfortable temperatures. Overall a pretty nice afternoon for this time of year in the great Pacific Northwest! :-D
 
Lets see if I can even decipher it:

17010KT (wind is 10 knots from 170º)
10SM (Visability is 10 Statute miles)
SCT048 (There are scattered clouds at 4,800 feet elevation)
BKN065 (There are broken clouds at 6,500 feet)
BKN080 (And more broken clouds at 8,000 feet)
11/06 (Temperature is 11ºC and the dewpoint is 6ºC)
A3023 (Barometer is at 30.23 Inches of mercury)
RMK AO2 (RMK is for various remarks and A02 means the weather station can sense precipitation)
SLP245 (I thik this is Sea Level Pressure, but don't know what units the 245 is in.)
T01060061 (I don't have a clue.)

Same here.... only without the Pacific. :sad

BKN080 (And more broken clouds at 8,000 feet)

So someone went up there to look at what heights the clouds are? ;) Haha that would be an awesome job: cloud height measurer. Flying around all day and looking at clouds. :shades I would be the happiest person in the world if I could do that. Dang, pilots must be the happiest people in the world.
 
SLP245 (I thik this is Sea Level Pressure,

WIKI: The standard atmosphere (symbol: atm) is a unit of pressure equal to 101.325 kPa ("kiloPascals")[2] or 1013.25 millibars or hectopascals.
see http://www.worldcat.org/search?qt=wikipedia&q=isbn:9291940046 for more

The mean sea level pressure (MSLP) is the atmospheric pressure at sea level or (when measured at a given elevation on land) the station pressure reduced to sea level assuming that the temperature falls at a lapse rate of 6.5 K per km in the fictive layer of air between the station and sea level.
This is the atmospheric pressure normally given in weather reports on radio, television, and newspapers or on the Internet. When barometers in the home are set to match the local weather reports, they measure pressure reduced to sea level, not the actual local atmospheric pressure. See Altimeter (barometer vs. absolute).

T10171017 (for example) is a breakdown of the temperature and dew point in 8 digits separated into two groups of four. the first four digits (1017) describe the temperature. The first digit (1) designates above or below zero Celsius (0=above zero 1=below zero). The next three digits in the group '017' is the temperature in degrees and tenths of a degree Celsius, −1.7 °C (28.9 °F). The last four digits '1017' is the same as the first group but for dew point, −1.7 °C (28.9 °F). Note: ASOS software, as of this update, uses whole degrees in °F to compute the °C values in this group.

Cold, wet snow. Not uncommon for the Rockies.

I've seen it snow in July!

Deborah13:

Well, we have been having flurries and the forecast for tomorrow is a minus 3 windchill, not too bad, but not what one expects when we are nearly into May...

Blessings.

The tulips are up in my grandson's garden and some have buds. He is anxiously awaiting them so he can take one to his friend in school. He brought her one last year. So this year she gave him a little note with a tulip on it. Hint, hint.

Blessings to you, too.
