Aaron Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 After a week of lows of -33c (-27f) and highs of -26c (-15f) (windchill values of -41c (-42f) and below) today is our last day of extreme cold and it will actually be 3c (37f) tomorrow! So people will probably be out wearing t-shirts and shorts and I’m not even kidding. The birds finished their first 16kg bag of BOSS yesterday, I was expecting it to last until the new year, but they definitely needed it this week. I guess whatever weather system I had here is what you guys are now getting. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirVive Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 My brother-in-law sent a screen shot of the current weather - his 'feels like' was the same as the South Pole station😂 And he's currently without power 😕 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quiscalus quiscula Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 It's 20F now, feels like 3F due to over 20 mph winds and may be getting some snow. Weather sure changed fast, my driveway is completely covered in ice. Birds have been gobbling up my seed mix like crazy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Spencer Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 (edited) 12F in central SC, wind chill -1. No precip, and the winds peaked early Friday morning, so we're on the downhill side. I'm going to ask if there's a bird bath heater under the tree and open it early. Edited December 24, 2022 by Charlie Spencer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lonestranger Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 The temps here haven't been too bad, -10C, but the wind chill has been making it feel like -25C. The snow has been coming down pretty steady but it's impossible to tell how much we've gotten. The snow has been blowing across the fields and yard so much that when I look out the front door I still see the grass in the front yard. That's when the wind dies down enough that I can actually see the yard. When I look out the back window though, I see a snow drift that looks to be 3 feet high, if not more. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonestranger Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 The continuing winds overnight have increased the drift size upwards to about 4 feet this morning. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the closest thing to a white Christmas I have ever seen. Mom said once we had a year it snowed on Christmas eve, and there was still snow the next day. It normally only snows about every 3 years, and that will be in late Jan. or in Feb...in other words it never snows this close to Christmas, so it's pretty exciting! Out the kitchen window: Are ya having that white Christmas @Kevin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulK Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 My neighbourhood is having a grey Christmas. We also have a lot of artsy people here and celebrate the solstice each year with a lantern parade. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
