How's the weather where you live?

[bluegardenia]

fine, in milan,italy,40 degrees; really warm till ten days ago but now winter is starting. in sicily,one hour and a half flight from here, last week  people were on the beach...

It's been fine here in NC - but we have artic temps coming next week in the single digits

Where's my "bear cave" so I can hibernate?

[Carolina]

Ah, Amanda, it may get cold but I keep the humidity as close to 65% as I can get it...running the humidifier 24/7 at full blast.  And I'm fine.  But then I almost never get cold.  It's the heat I can't stand anyway.

It's 48 degrees at 10:30 pm and it's predicted to be 71 degrees on Sunday.....Winter in NC, I'll take it any time over  Boston, where we lived for 25 years.

And Boston is better than Kansas City, Kansas, and KC, Kansas, is better than Northeast Iowa where my husband grew up.

Come join my in my bear cave in Cary!

Hugs,  Elaine

I am jealous of the 65% humidity. I have to keep humidity here maintained at 45%. Don't get me going on that last mold development back in jul/aug. So in my bedroom, I am running a Holmes HuMidifier which has a humidistat, and other end of dwelling a dehumidifier to keep excess moisture down in kitchen (which is highly vulnerable to mold growth as I found out the hard way, and I am highly allergic to mold)

Good point about Boston cold etc being worse. However, I liked winter better when at least the temp was consistent to where our bodies can actually adjust to teh season. But this flip flop between warm and extreme cold weather doesn't give our bodies time to adapt to the season change.

We went from just above freezing with rain showers to -30 degrees with 7 inches of snow ... In 24 hours!

Here in Western Australia I find I'm less dry in summer & feel better than in winter.
So far the summer has been very mild & I've been longing for it to be warmer.
Expecting 39 degrees Celsius today though which is too hot.  Hopefully a late afternoon sea breeze will arrive since I am cooking a lamb roast for visitors for our evening meal.
We have air con so we won't be hot while eating.

If I had wings, you'd have another guest, albeit uninvited.

Geesh I am freezing just reading this.

[Head2Toe]

10c (50f) with light rain here.  The rest of Canada (and much of the US) is in a deep freeze right now.  My sister just advised it is -37c (-34f) where she lives - which is WHY I don't live where she lives

[Carebear]

Yes, -40 C with the windchill here in Western Canada.

LOL    Most of my relatives live in MN or WI. They would like me to move up there BUT it is cold enough in Easter Iowa for me.

[meow]

Sunny and 60*...  Usually in January we are in the low 50s in the day, and around freezing at night.
A cold front roared through last week, giving us highs in the 40s.

Y'all should move here.

Cold and windy in W Yorkshire, but not dipped below freezing yet. We had our first snow of the winter overnight, but it has melted now.

The Santa Ana winds are blowing in hot and dry from the desert. It's in the upper 70's. I know a lot of you are freezing but, to me, this weather is misery. My lungs, eyes, mouth and throat feel like dried leaves. Every joint aches. I'd give anything to be back in Chicago with my family. At least there's humidity, clouds, rain and snow there. I can handle the cold. Can't take the dryness, constant sun and warm weather of LA anymore.
