About 50 degrees outside right now. Supposed to be in the low 20's on Thursday night. Hovering around freezing all day Friday. Then back up to the mid 60's a few days later.
So how cold is it outside?

Winter has come early...
It was so cold the other morning I saw a dog stuck to fire hydrant!

On Friday it's supposed to be cold and snowing from SW Pennsylvania up to the Great Lakes, so with discretion being the better part of valor I decided to cancel my prospective Christmas trip to Northeast Ohio to visit my brother. At my age and with my cardiac issues I didn't think driving into the teeth of a blizzard would be a good idea. My brother suggested that maybe we could get together for Groundhog Day.
Got down to 35 last night. Some frost & icing but was about 55 this afternoon. I've been keeping the fire going.
Well now the forecast for the greater Denver area on Thursday is a low of -10 overnight from Wednesday to a high of -2/0 LOL. Should be fun, not.
Starting Wednesday AM and continuing till Saturday noon, winter storm watch, blizzard watch, wind chill warning. Snow 4-10 inches, wind 45mph,
actual temps 0 to 18 below zero. I certainly hope this is one of those times the weather talkers are wrong.

It is 44* and raining here right now but strong cold front coming by Thursday night and slight chance of the rain becoming, ugh, something else we don't often see here when temp gets to 15-20* Friday morning and Christmas Eve morning with daytime highs right at freezing. That is unusually cold here less than 20 miles from the Gulf of Mexico.

Tonight/ -9 with gusts to 30mph

No one likes a smart-aleck!!!
Supposed to be 62 tomorrow just after lunch and then drop to 21 by Friday morning. On Friday it may get up to right around freezing and the winds are supposed to be 20-30mph sustained, with 40mph gusts. Wind chill numbers in the single digits, which is pretty rare here in SE Texas.

Temperature dropped here from 50 to 9 from 3:00 pm to 5:00pm.
It’s supposed to reach -9 tonight!
A great time to stay inside next to the fire.

I wish more people would display such good judgment. Over the yeas, driving a truck, driving a squad car, or in my own car, I have seen a lot of people who kept going when they were obviously afraid of the conditions and over their head.
It's similar to the boneheads who jammed airports over Thanksgiving to go someplace in spite of the flight problems and infectious disease spreading.
The 20's in Florida feel like negative temps up north.
I lived in Cincinnati 42 years. This is true.
