Our Christmas Day forecast.....80 degrees!

[dixiegrrrrl]

What's yours?

Ours represents over 10 degrees higher than average.

[Siwsan]

1. 34 and cloudy in my part of Michigan

We still have snow from the last two 'storms' but it is getting pretty compacted and dingy because we've been above freezing, for the past few days.

[tosh]

2. 79!

We've only had TWO nights at or below freezing so far this winter.

[ronnie624]

3. Very close to that, here in N Texas.

We're expecting some potentially nasty storms, as a result. It was in the seventies last December, also. People around here, are acting like cold weather in the winter, is abnormal.

[tblue37]

4. Here in Kansas we are expecting 62 degrees. nt

[Buckeye_Democrat]

5. Warm here too! In the 40's tomorrow. n/t

[lunasun]

6. Suppose to be near 50 near Chitown on Monday but then it it will go back to the 30s.....

thats not normal but maybe it will melt some snow we have on the ground right now

[CanonRay]

7. 45 and rain on the Oregon coast

slightly cooler than normal. Beats snow, though.

[TexasProgresive]

8. it is 71 right now in south central Texas with a high of 77

Tomorrow, Christmas day is suppose to be the same.
I just got back from a 20 mile bike ride and I am all wet-not from rain if you get my drift.

9. In SWFlorida

It'll be 86, ten degrees above normal. Has been in upper 80s for two weeks

[Tanuki]

10. Nashville---predicting high 70, low 60, 20% chance of rain. eom

[NickB79]

11. 40 and rain in MN

One week ago it was -24F and -40F windchill!

[SamKnause]

12. 47 and rain on Christmas.

The following day 63 and rain.

Southeastern, Ohio.

[PasadenaTrudy]

13. 55 I think, I love it!

It's damn hot here the rest of the year, I want some semblance of winter weather! Los Angeles area here.

[SammyWinstonJack]

14. 71 degrees, Gulf Shores, Alabama.

[dixiegrrrrl]

22. I'm about 90 miles north of you

and the forecast said it was to be 78, which may have hit for a few minutes.
But we had/have clouds, so that cools it down a bit.

[LWolf]

15. High 26;

low 4.

Within average range.

Not that the last few years have been "average." A typical winter would "start" in October with hard freezes; November would give us frozen fog and a bit of snow, December and January more snow, February a bit of snow.

The last few years until this winter, October has been warm, and a winter storm hits in November, with December much warmer than usual, and only a small amount of snow here and there the rest of the winter.

This year? It stayed warm right through until the last few days of November, and we've had storm after storm after storm with heavy loads of snow, 3 days in a row of school cancellations (which is rare), and when the sun does shine, it's freezing. The warmest it's been in the last couple of weeks is 34, and that little warming spell is over. We're back to what's fairly typical: 20s during the day, single digits at night. (Knocking on wood) Hopefully, we won't go into the negatives, which also does happen.

I'm having a hard enough time getting out of my 100 yard long driveway, even though it's been plowed.

[dixiegrrrrl]

25. That long of a driveway can be a pain in winter

but I love that you are so far from the road.

[benld74]

16. STL to be 60

[canetoad]

17. 32c which is about 90f

But we have an excuse, it's summer. Not so for you guys, those temperatures are incredible for winter.

[Different Drummer]

18. It's supposed to reach 70 degrees here in the...

Atlanta metro area tomorrow. The average high for December around here is in the range of 52-58 degrees.

[Texasgal]

19. 79 Degress with patchy rain

It's crazy.

[mcar]

20. Central FL - same forecast

I'm hoping we don't have to put the AC on.

[dixiegrrrrl]

23. I did have to put it on, when using the oven today.

And while the sun was streaming into the windows.
Probably same tomorrow, too.

[Elwood P Dowd]

21. 74 here and sunny. Will be upper 70s tomorrow. (nm)

[Raine]

24. around the mid 50's here in the Los Angeles area nt

[radical noodle]

26. 82 degrees today and tomorrow

I admit that I don't mind this part of climate change.

[rzemanfl]

27. About the same. Swam today, but the Y is closed tomorrow. Going to the beach. n/t

[Cattledog]

28. 72 in Atlanta we broke the record today and last year on Xmas it was 75 another record.

[Warpy]

29. Sunny and low 40s, seasonable

We did have measurable snow a couple of days ago. Nobody seems to be in the holiday spirit around here, though.

The ski area to the east of town opened today, maybe that will help some people.

[HockeyMom]

30. Spending Christmas on LI with 45 degrees but

87 in Naples, Florida, where we are currently living. After 10 years in Florida, we only spent ONE Christmas in Florida. No snow in NY but at least it is still Winter Coats.
