February Weather News 2022

:coffee: Welcome back from the cold temperatures and what ever you have in your region.
Today is a new month "FEBRUARY" and Indiana has begun to take some real changes in our weather.
The Weather News People are saying that we are going to be getting some more rain today and tomorrow morning the snow ❄️ ❄️.

I am not feeling good about the forecast. Calling for 5-8" of Snow. Here in Indiana we really don't know how to handle 2-4" of Snow. So it could get mighty nasty for driving the car/truck the next few days.

The Wife has been making a big list of things that I have to get/pickup today. ...:shemademe_smilie:

High today only 50°F with some rain. Lows are 35°F.

Currently no Snow.

Post your local area weather news. ......:thumbup:
 
Calling for 3 to 4 inches of snow here in southern Ohio, but the kicker is the half inch of ice supposedly coming with it. 4 inches of snow is no problem, but that much ice will be an issue. Nice today with high of 50 so we, like you, are getting a few things together in case we get the ice.
 
It looks like we are in the cross hairs for a biggy. Predicted is a full day plus of freezing drizzle followed by 4 - 6 inches of snow. That will put the brakes on driving for at least a couple days. Our biggest fear is potential power outages. If I am not here at my usual times, then it got us.

Hoping everyone is preparing as much as they can.
 
Got back in PA Sunday, 38 F today. The Spyder is still in FL, I'll be heading back to FL in two weeks and will stay there for maybe 6 or 7 weeks before bringing the Spyder back to PA (first or second week of April).
 
Low to mid 60s here in the desert S.W. until mid-next week. Then we will get into the mid to UPPER 70s!!!! Imagine, I could be riding in shorts and a t-shirt next week! Thursday doing a group ride to a Titan Missel Silo just south of Tucson. Wanted to do that tour for a long time and looking forward to it. Stay safe and warm..... Jim

One good thing about all the cold we've been seeing, preserves the snow since our snowmobiling area hasn't seen a lot.
 
The big central U.S. snow storm is going to miss us in southern WI - yay :) The groundhog here in Sun Prairie (WI) won't see his shadow, so spring should be right around the corner. That said, the next (7) days call for high's in low/mid 20*'s. What do groundhogs know :(
 
Wednesday 2/2/22

:chat: So far we had all day rain, currently 30°F.
Weather People are saying that we might get some ice.
Definitely going to get the big Stuff (snow).

Just now 4:30 pm the rain is changing to freezing rain/ice.
At 5:00pm it changes to snow.
Update: it has started to snow (4:50pm). Calling for 3 - 8" by Friday morning. ..:yikes:

Hopefully we can get out if we need too. ....... : )
 
The last couple of days we've scored some 'not really forecast' cooler days here in the Hills of South Oz this week (something to do with the tropical moisture that has been forced South by the recent Cyclones that's ended up giving us the wettest/highest humidity start to the year since 1984 :shocked: ). So there's been a bit of respite before a return to the warmth of Summer for the weekend/early next week.... only hopefully no more of the stinking humidity that's accompanied the heat of late! I don't mind it cold, even freezing, quite enjoy it in fact; I normally don't mind it hot either, I pretty much thrive in our Deserts; but I really don't like the stifling humidity we've been getting here lately... might as well be living in a sauna! :gaah:

But today, despite the Extreme UV warnings & High Fire Danger, our local weather is for temps that are only in the low 20's (°C), partly cloudy, with a bit of a gentle breeze - so it's looking like a great day for Ryding! :ohyea:

See ya! :p

Thursday 2/3/22

:gaah: Well, I only ordered 1-2" of snow for my local area.
Sooooooo I have about 1" so far. But the second wave is coming very soon. Supposedly it will bring another 3-5" of snow. ....:banghead:

Yesterday morning it rained and we received over 2". Then it turned to freezing rain and ice. So now we have a thin film of ice covered by 1" of snow.
I put down a little bit of snowmelt and it works very well.

High today of 24°F with wind chill makes it feel like 0°F. Calling for off and on all day snow.
Low of 10°F.

Snow Report: 1"+

Have a Blessed Day. .....:thumbup:
 
First Ryde of 2022

:yes: Almost forgot about this. Tuesday 2/01/2022 I finally got my 'first ryde' of the new year. The temperature was 54°F and I just had to do it.
Enjoyed the time and rode for a hour and half.
Let the good times roll. ......:thumbup:
 
Another Day of the Same
-20 Degree again this morning, never got above zero yesterday, and same thing today. Have to love this Minnesota living.
Good weather for polar bears and sled dogs. Could be worse, No ice or blizzards.
 
It is cold here in Central Utah, very cold. Below 0* this morning. No salt been too long since it snowed but there is still so much snow on the ground I can't get the Spyder out of the trailer. It has been so cold and it snowed so much in Dec that not a lot has melted away. I don't like the snow any more as I don't do any fun snow things any more, but I recognize we need it as here in the desert southwest, this is our water for the rest of the year. And after several years of drought we need it. They are in worse shape up north towards Salt Lake. No snow on the ground until you get up in the mountains. But still COLD.

Hear in balmy Canada this morning is -31c or -24f . We have several feet of snow and 6 to 8 foot snow drifts so won’t be riding for a few days maybe 4 months if lucky.I miss wintering in Florida and Arizona but just have to hang in here for now.

We ended up with 6 inches of snow. The freezing drizzle did not impact us greatly. Traffic is out and about, but moving slow.

With this 6 inches, plus the 14 inches last week, we have had 20 inches so far this winter. So far, that is a record for the three winters we have now lived here. The mail carrier said that we most likely brought this with us from Alaska. :roflblack:

My internet just came on so thought I would get in a bit in case it crashes again.
