Mostly this "winter" has been anywhere from 10 to 25 degrees warmer than normal, with maybe an inch of moisture, combining the little dab of snow and rain, that we've gotten.

It's 2 degrees here in Central Ohio at 9 PM. I didn't leave the house today, which meant time for quilting! It's supposed to "warm up" and get all the way to 17 tomorrow. lol

-7 yesterday, with a wind chill of -25, and 0 today, with about the same wind chill.....did I mention we moved my sister yesterday and today....all her stuff was in outside storage. Load the U-Haul...drive across town, only to find out the U-Haul didn't fit in the underground garage. Unload U-Haul in parking lot and carry inside...Stay home, stay warm, and move in the summer time!!!

it is 14 degrees here in central Missouri. with wind chill it says like1 degree. typical weather for February here. We have between 3-4 inches of snow already and it is still falling. Our 5 month old pup is fascinated by the snow and it is fun watching his fascination with it. Husband and I are both retired so we enjoy not having to be out in it but enjoy watching the birds at the feeders and our lab.sz. puppy out in it .Take care and stay warm,jan

Mid-south is 28 degrees with ice pellets and slick icy roads. Most of the snow stayed north in the boot hills of MO and into Ky and Ind. However, us mid southerners normally don't get a lot of winter precipitation, but do get the cold temps at times. It will be cold all week here in the Mid south. I even see some chicken owners put sweaters on their backyard chickens. lol I thought they were kidding but I actually seen a few pics of knitted and crocheted chicken sweaters. I dont plan on going out at all today with roads being so slick. Coming from wisc., we know how to drive in such conditions but its the homeys here that don't and those are the ones who one needs to watch out for. So today, Ill throw a few logs on the fire and work on tying a quilt and if I really get bored, I can always crochet some chicken sweaters. lol

Think we are blessed to just have the cold. Right now my house is 57° as the furnace will not kick on. Have two Labs in the house and they look kinda chilly. Furnace will not get attention until after 1pm.
