In Zürich, it is sunny and 7 C degrees plus.
Says its 44°F but the wind chill is making it feel -20.
so glad the snow is finally all gone. so far....
I wonder how many tunnels critters will have dug in our snowbank before it finally melts! We now have two bunny ones and a squirrel one!
It is 17°F(-7C) today, so no melting now!
Going down to -7* tonight. 13* for a high tomorrow!
Now it is -18*F, not counting windchill.
Still nippy here today - it looked much warmer out than it was, for sure! It got all the way up to 25°F(-4) but is now back down to 19°(-9C) with the potential to drop to zero or below tonight!
-13* this morning. Going to warm up! And then we'll have a snow storm!
March begins softly
The hush of evening snowfall
Blankets grey snowbanks
"It’s just touch-up snow,"
I tell anyone who is
Glum, “Makes it look clean.”
Still my heart is glad
Snow falls and my spirits rise
Yes, even in March
Currently 25°F (-4C) and the projected total has been updated from "little to no accumulation" to 2"-4" overnight.
Not quite so harshly cold tonight. It is midnight and still 15F out. I got home from church and grocery shopping about 8 and it didn't feel as bitterly cold as the past several days.
It was up to 34°F today, which meant melting - puddles everywhere! I got gas standing in a puddle, but there was still large snowpile it was from, so it's not like they could have mopped it up or anything!
Back down in the twenties and dropping down to an expected 9°F tonight, but the big messy day will probably be Wednesday, when it is supposed to be 42 degrees and raining!
29*F with sleet, freezing rain and ice.
We're having a heat wave! 34F (+1 C)! Seriously, it doesn't feel so harshly cold out today. It's supposed to be sunny tomorrow but not as warm, then back in the 30s again over the weekend - which is good because I'd really like to take my grimy car to the car wash.

Our weather in central NC is crazy up & down. Yesterday it was 38 high, today's high was 70 (normal would be 55), tomorrow 45 & dropping temps and tomorrow night we could have a freezing mix (sleet, fr rain, snow). Friday it is supposed to be in the 50's which is normal for here this time of year. Today's 70 felt so good!!
Today it was a melting day (reprise of the ditty*) as it was well above freezing, it got all the way up 42°F () but it is now dropping and will go back down to 25°F tonight, so all the puddles that happened today will become skating rinks! And stay that way ... this was apparently a one-off!

Kay, did you see the thread yesterday about the Giant Snow Cat in Archdale, NC? - http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthre...Giant-Snow-Cat!
It got to 66 this afternoon. While out I saw some people out with hoodies and jackets. I felt like stopping them. I mean 66 today felt more than just balmy. It was nice and warm.

Thanks for telling me about this snow cat. I had not seen it before now; it's huge. No doubt that took a long time to make and it turned out great. We might get a small wintery mix tonight. I'll be glad when spring gets here. I don't know how you folks with big amounts of snow make it through the winter.
Going down to -4* tonight, then a nice warm up headed our way!:D
Currently 13°F and sinking, supposed to go down to 6°F - at least that's above zero! Everything that melted Wednesday froze solid, and all the puddles became skating arenas!
Right now it is 40*F and sunny!
52F (+11C) with wind out of the south. Seems to me that this kind of mild weather is not usual for March in Chicago. I can remember wearing a heavy coat on St. Patrick's Day.
It was much warmer yesterday - up 54°F(12°C) but then temps dropped again, and today has barely gotten much above freezing - 35°F (2°C) with a wind chill of 23°F(-5C) - like it was saying, "Yesterday? Just kidding!"
Actually ... it's warm! 63F (+17C) ... on a typical mid-March day in Chicago we'd be around 45F. This is more like May than March.
It was cooler today. It's been in the 60s but with a 20 degree drop and rain, it actually feels cold. Heat is back on.
It's 45 F at 10:30 here and is supposed to go up to 61F.
All the snow is gone in this part of Canada. It's worrying as it may be too dry for farming but we are supposed to get some moisture in the next two days (mix of snow and rain - yech!) Highs both days will be 36F!
There were a few days in the 50's here but the temps are dropping. Weather reports are saying we could get 1" to 3" of snow on Friday - the first day of spring. Bring it on - I hate spring :mad:
Right now 45F (9C) but it is supposed to be rainy, snowy, and/or windy all weekend long with highs in the 40s. Typical Chicago spring- if you like the weather you'd better enjoy it while it's nice out, because it could change quickly. This to me is more consistent with March in Chicago.
Here in the Boston suburbs, 'tis currently 26°F(-6C) and snowing! The first day of spring is generally a meaningless concept around here, anyway!
Here it is the first day of spring and we got 6" of snow today :eek: I am loving it and hope this means spring will pass us by this time around. I hate spring :(
When it is 21°F (-6° C) at noon in Boston ....
They say it's spring in Boston
Beneath a clear blue sky
But ice dams still
On rooftops lurk
And laugh, and shout "You lie!"
They say it's spring in Boston
After our record snow
But snowbanks,
Frozen solid still
Stolidly say, "Just no!"
They say it's spring in Boston
The potholes rule the road
But ice forms in them
Every night
The road bed to corrode
They say it's spring in Boston
But I think they do not know
Spring ain't just
A calendar date,
When still the north winds blow
They say it's spring in Boston
While gardeners just sigh
No tilling works
In frozen ground
First planting may be in July!
Well, it's supposed to get up into the 40s this week.
I'll believe it when I see it, especially with 1" of new snow on the ground this morning.
Well, today we have bright sunshine, and it is above freezing in the direct sunlight. The temperature is actually right on 32°F (0°C) but the water I set out for the birds is liquid, as the sun is beating down on it!
They are still predicting 46’F tomorrow, we'll believe it when it happens!
9 degrees? Wow. It's very nice down here. Hopefully it will stay that way for a while. We've been known to skip Spring altogether and go right to summer. Knock on Wood.
:D
It is now above freezing 34°F (1°C) and raining! It was up to 46°F earlier, but went back down as soon as the sun started to go down. We'll see how much of a dent these next couple days make in the snowbanks! The ground is still frozen solid, so not much water will be absorbed even where the snow is gone.
Normally the crocuses are blooming and the daffodils and tulips are well-sprouted by now...not this year. Whenever we get a day above 40F it rains. Like today. It's supposed to be cold again this weekend. No true snowpack anymore, but plenty of snow in shaded areas, and yes, the dreaded black snowbanks!
Going down to 14* tonight and supposed to snow. I knew winter wasn't really over yet.:D
Ah, Spring, but is Winter making a last rally? Down to 35 tonight and 30 tomorrow. Freeze warning, but not for pipes, but for plants.
I thought I was done with Kerosene, but not so. Had to buy some tonight. Cold houses are not fun.
