What's your weather currently?

31 rain mixing with or changing to sleet. Looking for an overnight low around 25

Temperatures here in Wichita have not been above the freezing point since overnight February 5-6, and they are not predicted to get up there again until the week-end after next.  If the forecast is correct, that will have been two solid weeks below 32°F.

We've had multiple days of light snow or flurries, with some more snow expected early next week.  The forecast for Monday currently has a low of —15°F, which I'm pretty sure would be the lowest temperature I've ever personally experienced here (I've experienced colder in Minnesota, but only by a few degrees).

In general, it kind of feels like I'm living back in Chicagoland, rather than a city at lower latitude than Louisville, KY.

Strikingly similar out here. The last time we had temps above freezing was midday on Friday Feb. 5th. Other than that day and the two days prior, it's been below freezing since at least January 27th. (https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/usa/rochester/historic)

Upthread, I set the over/under for when we'd see the grass again at Feb. 18th. With over a foot of snow still on the ground and more coming as we speak, it looks like we'll easily hit the over, surprising since much of January was snow-free and it's rare for us to go more than a week or two without a significant thaw.

Snow on the ground in central OK. More to come over the next few days. Some models are showing 14 inches (!!) on Sunday, and of course that's the one the for-profit forecasters have glommed onto. NWS isn't going out on that limb quite yet.

Preliminary NWS forecasts expect as much as seven inches of snow for Springfield, MO (though at the moment, 5in seems the most likely). Springfield has not received more than 2.5 inches at one time since at least the mid 2010s. Windchills could get down to -20.

We finally broke above 20 degrees for the first time in a week yesterday only to plunge back into the deep freeze for the weekend. Another chance of snow tonight and tomorrow and potentially the coldest Valentine's Day ever on Sunday.

There is finally an above-freezing temperature in the 10-day forecast. Sunday 2/21 has an expected high of 34.

The snow is all but gone from next week's forecast, but it is still supposed to be super cold. Houston could go nearly a week below 50 degrees and Tuesday morning is now projected to be 16. This weekend will be historic.

[STLmapboy]

Clear and sunny. We still have an inch of snow on the ground; due to the clouds and 20-degree weather, it's lingered for about a week, which is longer than any other snow this year has stayed.

Current temp 16 degrees.

Four hours later and it's "warmed up" to 1.

My sister and her husband got into town from Iowa yesterday, and the plan was to spend time with them at my parents' house tomorrow.  However, the forecast for Saturday night calls for less than four inches or up to ten inches of snow, depending on which forecast you look at.  So we're meeting up this evening instead, in case they need to bail out of town tomorrow to get ahead of the snow.

[J N Winkler]

I've been seeing reports of overheated forecasts of as much as 14 inches of snow for my local area beginning Sunday.  I'm ordinarily not one to panic-buy, but as we just opened our last gallon jug of milk, I plan to be doing next week's shopping tonight rather than Saturday as usual.

[CoreySamson]

The temperature has been in the upper 30s all day, and it has been cloudy. The temperature could reach single digits in some parts of Houston, but the official low forecast for Tuesday morning is 12 freakin' degrees! It may not get out of the 40s until Friday. This is surreal what is about to happen.

To really appreciate how shocking this weekend's weather will be, consider this metric: the record low for Houston on February 15th is 31 degrees. The high for Monday is 28. I know I keep going on about this, but I am excited.

[kkt]

Snowing lightly now.  Expecting 2 to 4 inches by morning.

Enough to cause quite the show on I-5 tonight, with many spun out cars. Only saw a few plows.

Snowed last night and into this morning. 5 degrees. Looks like the blanket of snow isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

I drove in it this morning. Saw no fewer than four accidents. There was barely any plowing done when I went out; local streets were completely untouched.

One car spun out and hit this exit sign. Here's a picture.

[kphoger]

the record low for Houston on February 15th is 31 degrees. The high for Monday is 28.

WOW !!

That is weird! Is their any precip? A good friend of mine is supposed to fly DFW-IAH-LFT (Dallas to Houston to Lafayette) on United on Monday and they sent out a waiver.

[TravelingBethelite]

Sunny and cold now, but it'll get worse. Forecast highs for both tomorrow and Monday are in the 1 to 4 degree range, with forecast lows ranging from -2 to -7. The cold is partially justified by another system, the one projected to give a wallop to the southern Plains and lower Mississippi River Valley, looking to give us 2 to 5 inches of snow between around noon Sunday and early Monday morning. (The cold itself might be justified, but just not how cold it is.) Though fortunately, we should finally be on the upswing through next week, potentially reaching back above freezing  by next Friday with a forecast high in the low to mid 30's. Can't believe I'd be excited by that but here we are.

Yeah we finally see the 20s again by Wednesday and potentially the 30s by next weekend, a heat wave!

Texas is about to shut down for a week, there are parts that have no snow removal equipment or tools and with already one ice storm down and potentially two larger ice/snow storms enroute.... oh boy

[1995hoo]

I'm not sure I could open the car door without some serious effort if I wanted to go somewhere (I don't, especially as it's starting to get dark).

[NWI_Irish96]

3 more inches of snow last night/today. Probably close to 2 feet total on the ground now. I've run the snowblower more the past two weeks than the previous three years combined. Temperature expected to drop below zero again tonight.
