I was in Las Vegas while Louisville was having an ice storm.  Good timing.

The first 2 days I was in Vegas, it was mid-50's with 25 mph+ winds.  The last several days were upper-60's with calm winds...that was nice.

golfballsize hail and tornadoes hit all over the area saturday.  the closest was a couple miles from our house.  one of cars took some hail. damage.  so far no death directl related to the storm...hit  late afternoon so people weren't sleeping.  had it hit overnight the numbers would likely have been different.

Saw your tornado post, looked scary!  

70's Monday, 60's yesterday, 50's today, and calling for snow on Monday.  WTF?

It's 28F today!  So much warmer than yesterday!

I'll take it, because the snow is currently falling, which means water in the summer here, which means less wildfire danger. I don't mind shoveling the driveway as much this year, after what happened in my neighborhood this past summer. Also, it's ski season b!tches!

I want snow...at least when there is snow that means it is slightly warmer than freezing.  Sun has been down for a couple hours...Pitch.  Black.  Outside.  Kinda spooky.

"While it can be too warm to snow, it cannot be too cold to snow. Snow can occur even at incredibly low temperatures as long as there is some source of moisture and some way to lift or cool the air. It is true, however, that most heavy snowfalls occur when there is relatively warm air near the ground—typically -9 degrees Celsius (15 degrees Fahrenheit) or warmer—since warmer air can hold more water vapor."

The feels like here is 6F.

Polar vortex where are you?

Light snowfall all throughout the day. It was pretty nice not sure how I ever did Christmas before living in a cold area

No polar vortex. @csb lives in Wyoming...where it BOTH sucks and blows.

I'll never forget being on the roof of my wife's house in December putting up Christmas lights and sweating my balls off (in south Georgia,) thinking this just ain't right.

On the other hand, she misses the daffodils blooming in early February.
