66.6 degrees here, currently. Must be my lucky day. Also, today was rainy... just how I like it.

It's the worst I've seen in a very long time here. Fortunately there was no severe damage in my neighborhood.

My sister & her family live in the midwest... there were something like 89 tornadoes last weekend and I was scared to death. Thankfully, they were fine as well. Flat ground is scary, but it seems like everyone is being hit lately.

It's currently 15 degrees tonight with snow and wind. :eek: So cold! Tomorrow it's only supposed to get up to 24 degrees (just like today) with the same snow and wind. I've been freezing almost the whole day since I've been out of the house, and tomorrow I'm going back out again. Looking forward to it, but not looking forward to being cold.

The fact that this is in Fahrenheit makes it so much worse! How do you guys get by in such extremely cold temperatures? I would perish!

I've got on leggings, jeans, socks, house shoes, a long-sleeve shirt, a sweatshirt, a scarf, and a hat. And I'm still sitting on the heater vent because I'm freezing! Just can't seem to stay adequately warm on these cold days.

While this sounds lovely at night when you can snuggle up to someone and drink hot cocoa and reminisce about childhood over a game of Scrabble (too specific?), a day or two of this is about all I could handle before I would get tired of removing eighteen layers of clothing just to pee. :bigsmile:

Then again, our 40C days are not exactly comfortable, either, so there's good and bad sides. :) Having a white Christmas - something we don't get in Australia - is an experience I'd love to have one year.
