January Weather News 2021

[Deanna777]

Tonight, the temps will drop. The cold air is coming from Canada. This weekend will be a cold one. Next week the temps will moderate to the 20'& 30's.


We have had a very mild winter so far here in the North East. ( off topic, the sledding season has started off to a very low start, the sledding season is a very short season anyway). Back on topic, only 49 days until spring!

I haven't rode my Spyder in a couple of weeks and am starting to go through withdrawal. I might have to put on my Ski pants, bundle up, and just go for a ride.

 

[ARtraveler]

Valley Springs AR: colder than usual today. Just cracked 30. Staying home. Spoiled. :yes:

 

[Peter Aawen]

Got a little warm today; still shaded temps pushing the high 40's (°C) but at 1m up, the air temp reflected up off of the ground was 20+° higher! :shocked: Not a real great day to see this looming as the evening draws in! :yikes:

 

[Valkrocket]

I always thought: "Red Sky at Night Sailors Delight" However, if that's a fire off in the distance.......hop on your Spyder and "Ride Like Ya Stole It!" :yikes:

I always thought: "Red Sky at Night Sailors Delight" However, if that's a fire off in the distance.......hop on your Spyder and "Ride Like Ya Stole It!" :yikes:

That's a fire, with the setting sun just visible thru the smoke to the right of it - and there really isn't all that much 'distance' between us'n it!! It's a few kms off at best; we were getting still glowing ash showers drifting over as I took that pic!! :shocked:

But the latest news is that the wind has swung around 90° to SSE, so now it's heading off into the far right of that pic & away from us..... and straight towards the Aged Care Facility where my 96 y/old Mother is in care!! :yikes:

At least there's about 15 km of fairly open & cleared country between the fire front & the next settled area, and my Mother's Care Facility is another 5 kms or so further into that, so there's a bit of a buffer that way, and all the roads between us & her are already closed anyway. But there's a 180° wind shift heading in now, should hit us within the hour & with any luck, that'll turn the fire front right back on itself. The wind shift is being fairly closely followed by a solid rain front, which should hit the fire within a couple of hours of the wind change, so we are keeping a fairly close watch..... gonna be a looong night tho!

Hoping all turns out for the best Peter. Prayers coming your way. ray:

The desert S.W. is experiencing thunder showers today. Woke up this morning by big booming. Highs will only be 55. This is expected to last through Tuesday. Very glad to see rain but wish it would only happen at night so we could ride during the day. Put the bike on the tender until Chief Thunder Cloud moves on..... Jim

 

[ARtraveler]

Valley Springs AR: plus 40's so far. Cloudy and rain expected.

Thanks for that - all happened as forecast, the early am wind change turned the fire back on itself; rain front followed it thru & knocked the worst of the spreading fire; a couple of houses & out-buildings were lost, but no lives lost or injuries so far. :thumbup:

The fire is still burning in heavy & inaccessible bush, but there's over 200 Firies out on the containment lines and they're bringing in the next wave of fire-bombers as I type, hoping to hit it hard. Sorta need to tho; thunderstorms & gale force winds heading our way tonight/early tomorrow, and it's gonna be stinking hot again within a day or so!!

Monday

Well, the weather was a real pistol here over the weekend. Got the rain, a little freezing stuff, snow showers and a wee little bit of snow.

Today is going to be a repeat. Just waiting for the rain to start.

High of 32°F with rain, low of 31°F with snow showers.

Be Safe. .......:thumbup:

 

[ARtraveler]

Valley Springs AR: We are one state South of the snow/sleet/freezing rain line. A couple of thunder storms rolled through here earlier this AM. We received a lot rain. :yes:

 

[canamjhb]

Today in the desert S.W. we had rain, hail, and SNOW! Parts of the Valley of the Sun actually saw some snow today. A cold front came through bringing the white stuff with it. Right now at 4PM my computer says it is 37F in Mesa, AZ. This is extremely unusual for us. I live at 1,500 feet in elevation and the higher hills around me have a dusting of white. The good news is I can see blue sky moving in from the west and the sun is starting to come out. Everything will be dry in an hour or two..... Jim

In the Sierra Nevada they have stopped using inches to measure the predicted snow amounts for the next series of storms----- Yes, they are now predicting in FEET of snow:yikes:. I took a long look at my Spyder today---- as I was working on the snowblowers.

PS: But the skiing is GREAT.

 

[Snoking1127]

Had a little hail here in the Phoenix East Valley.

 

[Deanna777]

This week the temps in the 20's low in the single digits.

An other cold blast this weekend.

( off topic I'll be riding on the sled). Back on topic.

Tuesday

A very gray morning and drizzle 35°F. Off and on rain.

Today only 37°F rain, low of 23°F.

Stay Healthy. ......:thumbup:

 

[Plarimer]

Cloudy with 13 1/2 inches of snow last night, which is the third most on record for one snowfall. The city of Lincoln was kind enough to leave a 4 foot drift in front of my driveway. No Spyder riding for a few weeks or until the snow melts. One positive note is that we really need the moisture.

 

[ARtraveler]

Valley Springs AR: Well.......................................we got some snow overnight. About an inch of the light, fluffy stuff. It looks pretty and gives a different viewpoint of the surroundings.

It is already doing a slow melt (we have 35 degrees or so), the grass is showing through and getting more visible by the hour. Supposed to be 40's tomorrow, 50's and rain the next days.

Will be quickly gone. Thank you AR. :bowdown: So far, don't have to shovel it, (left the shovels and snow blower back in AK). We get a change of scenery for a short time, but that is about it. :thumbup:
