    Our weather here in Jackson is really getting to be weird, right now at 4:11am it is 30 degrees it has been mostly below zero which is also unusual for this time of the year. We are getting very little snow fall. From west yellowstone over in Idaho all the way to old faithful geyser the roads are clear. There is only about 6 inches of snow on the ground there right now. All of the roads there should be non driveable with a whole lot of snow eveywhere.

    Monsoon season in Mississippi! :)

    right now it is 32 degrees outside with a clear sky. We have 4 days of snow forcast for this week. This is kind of like the calm before the storm. That is if we do get that snow.

    The last week of December and still no snowfall of any kind in my little corner of the Midwest. It's been raining though.

    Its actually quite cool here at the moment, or maybe its just me. Who knows. I went for a walk earlier and the breeze was very chilly. It was supposed to be quite warm today so I guess the weather forecasters got it wrong!

    Then about 5 days of 32. Horrible.

    I'm heading to Hobart for a week!

    Scotland is also an igloo of cold freezing doom and gloom...

    It's like a wind tunnel here again. Gales up to 90mph were predicted and they're here. I'll try to get out and film a bit later on. The white horses are fairly galloping over the river...

    This is Hurricane Bawbag which happened earlier in the month. They said it went up to 165 mph and it was bad but it doesn't look that bad in this :-D...though I was cowering in the car. It was gusting and hitting the car like a fist.

    I wonder what's happening with the climate.

    It isn't even freezing at night.

    Animals are not doing their wintersleep.

    Some trees are already in full blossom.

    A lot of plants, bushes, trees and flowers already have new knots...

    They're not, that's just you...:sun:

    Sounds nice though.

    Gales are not unusual for us in winter, although they are quite strong. But it is warmest recorded November and I think 1c away from warmest Christmas ever.

    The fluctuation is strange. We had snow and now we're snow and ice free and back to gales...windswept and interesting.

    Having heard of the Highlands and such, I would suggest you break up with London before the flood:)

    Warmish here, should start to heat up tomorrow in time for NYE which is meant to hit a high of about 36, meaning the fireworks display could be cancelled due to a total fire ban.

    39 Celsius two days in a row here. I've had enough of this heat.

    I've never understood people's fascination with fireworks.

    For the past 4 days we have been under a winter storm warning. By now they said that we would have up to 14 inches of snow. But so far we have gotten zip. Right now it is starting to snow a little, wonder just how much we will get.
