We did have strong winds but no damage/no thunderstorms or even rain. We are in a drought and need rain.

Glad you've had no damage from the wind, Nina.
So far out Dec weather above normal with temp predicted to reach 60 degrees this week. Last week not the same/some cold rain on Thanksgiving unfortunatley and ice in western part of state. Here you never know what's coming next.
Us either. Started out freezing lately, but the afternoons have been nice. Yesterday, the frost was still on the bushes until almost noon & I was in shirtsleeves by 3pm.
Current temp here is 33 F.
Sunny abd near sixty. Wonder if your weather is the same jIm?
I don't think we hit 50 today & we started out about freezing. I think it gets a little warmer tomorrow, but not much.
They are predicting near seventy degrees, can you believe on Thursday/and it really is December. I had my last injection this afternoon. Not completely cured but hopeful this one does the job. Have a consultaion of all times on Christmas eve.
Wow! That's really warm. Hope the last shot does the trick.
Jim wrote: "... Hope the last shot does the trick."I hope the same, Nina.
Current temp here is 32F.
Weather so nice here/in the lower sixties and no wind and sunshine. Due to change overnight, but that's KS.
Current temp here is 53F. Sun is shining.
That too is very nice, Joy. Is that above average for your place? Our is supposed to be in the forties in December.
Nina, I'm sure that the average must be much cooler. IIRC, we has snow early last year and a lot of people didn't put up their outdoor decorations and lights soon enough. This year the outdoor lights seem to be up early around the homes in the area.
PS-Sometimes I think the outdoor lights around the homes are the best part of the holiday!
It has been raining CONTINOUSLY since Saturday morning in Omaha---and most of Nebraska as well!!I have lived her 65 years and I surely do not recall such a long stretch of rain. Over 3.5" of rain!
The only good thing is the temperatures have remained above freezing---so far! A very cold wind is accompanying the rain and it is just plain nasty.
On the positive side, I do have a stack of books yet to read.......
Mary JL, also on the positive side is the fact that the rain is not snow. :)
We're warm today, but really windy. We got a bit of rain, but it blew through too fast & hard. Lots of branches down on the road this morning & no sleep after about 4am. Just too noisy.
We welcome our rain but not the noisey tree blowing done kind. My husband has to water our new tree with buckets if it doesn't rain/three times a week for fifteen minutes each time. Lots of carrying water.
That was our weather last week but this week no rain in sight for a week at least. We'll probably not have a white Christmas/12 percent chance according to the weatherman.
Nina, these days, I can do without a white Christmas. :)
Our weather turned sharply cold yesterday, and we had our first snow of the season last night, a fairly heavy one. But the temperature has once again risen above freezing, so the snow has virtually all melted by now.
This morning we woke up to a slight covering of snow everywhere. Not a welcome sight! Current temp is 30F.
No snow, but we're in the mid 20s again. Brrr.
I guess winter is really here! Current temp is 34F.
The first day of winter here starts out at almost 60 degrees with rain.
Jim wrote: "The first day of winter here starts out at almost 60 degrees with rain."That's so unusual! Our temp here is 43F. It's raining. It's better than snow!
Sunday morning they are predicting wind chill of below zero. BRRR. We are staying in and missing Mass that day. NO sense taking a chance on getting pneumonia.
They predict mixed rain, snow and sleet ("a wintry mix") this weekend here. Doesn't sound good.
Stay warm, Joy and don't fall on the ice.
Thanks, only time I am worried is when I venture out to the bird feeer.
Winter has suddenly hit us. Yesterday it was in the mid 50s. Last night winter blew in at about 60 mph (It's blowing our dog door open.) with rain that is now snow. When I woke up it was 33 & less than an hour later it was 31. We're not supposed to get above freezing the rest of this week.
Currently in Omaha, Nebraska the air temperature is -1F and the wind chill is -21F!!!Unbelievable!
Jim and Mary JL, sorry to hear about your bad weather. Hope it will pass soon. We have rain here and 41F.
It's 21 here now with a wicked hard & cold wind. The dogs are content to stay inside, but the ground isn't frozen yet so the horses are still bouncing around. I just saw Topaz & Indy playing. Lots of bucking, rearing, & tearing around. Topaz really got his coat in quickly under Marg's ministrations. No more blanket for him.
No snow, no rain but it was 7 degrees and bitter cold when I ventured out to feed the birds this morning.
Oh Omaha is even worse than KS...Stay warm as you can.
Temp here is 44 but will go down tonight. Sorry to hear about the bitter cold elsewhere. Our turn will come. :)
From being 45 degrees here this morning, our temperature fell through the day, to the point where it was 26-27 degrees around dusk. Also, the snow began to fall heavily in the late afternoon. So it looks like our weather is sharing in the general pattern. :-(
Hope your snow won't amount to too much, Werner.
Thanks, Joy; we'll have to see. (Crosses fingers.)
Be glad you aren't here. Our temp this morning was 2 degrees. But, warmer weather is on the way even as the evening progresses it is warming up. Tomorrow afternoon will be forty and no snow is any forcast for the next week. So far we've had an inch a week ago.
Oh yuck. It was 7 degrees out when I left the house this morning. Marg said it was 5 when she got up a couple of hours later. Still not light out, so it might go down a bit more. Yuck yuck yuck brrr...:(
It's 25 F here right now. The sun is out. Hope it warms up for all of you... and us too! :) I'm already longing for spring.
Jim, it was two degrees here yesterday morning but this afternoon is up to forty. Not warm as there is a cold wind but not two degrees. Maybe this is headed your way. A warming trend.
When the wind bites you it's time for spring to appear. Today I watered all my indoor plants and swept up their leaves. Lots of work and perhaps I won't overwinter all of them next winter.
I'm starting to think about getting rid of some of my indoor plants. The do get messy and require attention.
