Here in Vancouver, it rained 28 out of 31 days in October. It hasn't stopped for November, either.

Oh dude, Vancouver, B.C., or Vancouver, WA?

Either way we're practically neighbors here in the PacNW.


EDIT - Apologies, there may be more Vancouvers around the world, but these are the only two I know of.

Hiya neighbour. Over on the Canadian side, though I think the entire coast got pounded.

Loved Vancouver, B.C., the last time I had visited. (Sometime during the late 80s, and then later on during the late 90s.)

Is the city still as gorgeous as it was back then? (And the weather still as moody and variable to each and every sport?)

 

[JaraM]

Headley (UK), it's awful, cold and cloudy and sometimes rainy.
By the way, which Channel do you use for the weather? I'm using The Weather Channel Live on YouTube for years (http://freepps.top/apps/media-video/youtube) I use it so long and everything works great. But maybe some new app appeared lately.

More snow in Stockholm since ... time begun!

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Are any of you fine peoples "sky watchers"? (By that I mean astronomers, not astrologists.)

Weather a bit nippy, rainy and windy out here in my parts, and being I was too lazy to stay up and watch the full gibbous moon the other night I saw it this morning. (Though it may not have been in its full gibbousness.)

Think we're looking for the Andromeda Galaxy tonight, but your ability to see it may very well depend on where you live and your weather. (It's quite cloudy here tonight, as it is actually most of the nights at this time of year.)

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Our very first frost will be arriving some time tonight - I don't like it!

Re:

Beautiful picture of the clouds, sir fly.

Over here we've got freezing rain right now, which I think is just about the worst. (The ice weighs down tree branches, electrical cables and such, hopefully we won't lose power.)

Re:

Dang that's gorgeous.

 

[sir fly]

Thanks, people.
Sunny and fresh December here.
Temperatures in low plus during daylight, falling below freezing during the moonlight these days.
No snow yet, just a very short shower of icy rain yesterday evening.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Yep, we lost power thanks to the freezing rain, and while it was for barely 24hrs., (and I must admit the trees look kinda pretty all iced over like that), there are still tree branches breaking all over the place because the ice hasn't quite molten/melted yet, and they're taking everything down that comes in their way with them.

(Btw., first thing I did when the power came back on was take a hot shower and wash my hair [I don't wash my hair every single day], but after three days of not washing it my scalp was starting to feel a bit itchy and greezy.)

Next thing I'm doing is my laundry - I want to look somewhat presentable at work come Monday morning... in case the power goes out again.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Some pics from a couple of days ago... just went out this morning for a walk and the trees aren't looking any better.

Rain showers early will evolve into a more steady rain for the afternoon. Thunder possible. High 76F. Winds SW at 5 to 10 mph

 

[Pantani1]

In the north of Spain it rains a lot, but his Christmas it hardly rained.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

It's a small winter wonderland here in Eugene this morning (snowing, about 30F) - I feel as giddy as a schoolkid.

School has been cancelled since nobody knows how to drive in snow around here, still have to go to work, though. But as long as I can borrow my dad's Subaru Forester (with the luxurious heated seats ) I'll be all right.

 

[sir fly]

A thin snow cover has created several days ago, but the highlight of the weekend and coming days are Arctic temperatures ranging from -20°C to -10°C during the warmest part of the day. And the north wind of 20 - 25 kmph is blowing since the minus has begun.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Wheeeee, snow!

Went xc-skiing for the first time in a very long time, and right here on my own streets! (Glad I still have my old boots, old skis, old clothes, and old poles.)

 

[krebs303]

Wednesday 60 % Precip. / 0.08 in
Overcast with rain showers at times. High 63F. Winds S at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 60%.

 

[May0maniac]

Right now it has been pretty cold in the Upper Puster Valley for over a week.
Today we had -19°C in the morning, but when I went on a short hiking trip at noon we still had -15°C when I left the car and -15 at noon is really cold (it was down in the valley in the woods and not on some isolated mountain).

 

[sir fly]

After the weekend in low daylight plus, we're back in freezer.

This is the trace of last week's minus:

You can notice large ice plugs on the Danube. That's how it looks upstream, as well.
Two icebreakers from Hungary are on their way to make the river navigable again.

Currently snowing, freezing point.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Magnificence! It's a bizarre 54F here today... for the first time in a long time I don't have to wear thermal underwear, I didn't have to blow-dry my hair this morning (it's one of those first world problems - I hate walking around with frozen hair in the winter), and I actually shaved my legs!

I'll enjoy this balmy weather while it lasts, in a couple of days it's supposed to freeze again.

 

[sir fly]

No trace of last month's minus.,
40 days and 40 degrees Celsius in range, so 20 pleasant February degrees.

There's N/NW (is this the movie thread?!) wind of 10-15 kph.

But I'm not getting carried away... The winter never ends in February.

 

[Jspear]

It's February and right now it's high 60's F and sunny. Can't complain.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

It's going to freeze here overnight, but we've had a lot of rain recently. (Which is good - so far we're on target in terms of annual rainfall, and there's been lots of snow in the mountains. Which is also good.)

Because of all the rain I've been reading up on dams and spillways and such, ran into what some call, um, glory holes. I think they're just the most bizarre and creepy things, this guy actually walked through the Ladybower bell-mouth spillway when the water level was low. Eeeeeeek - gives me the heebie-jeebies!
