Weather at your house

Gas stoves are not being banned. Period.

Meanwhile, back to the non-political . In my neck of the woods, it's a somewhat chilly 29 degrees Fahrenheit, with 17 degree wind chill. It's sunny though, so the sliders are open and the greenhouse is heating up the house, without the propane heater actually having to kick on.

Weird New England weather for us, as it's been a mostly snow-less winter. All the big storms seem to just miss us, or we get rain, instead of snow and ice. We've gotten far more accumulated rain, then we have snow this winter, which is crazy weird. I'm sure we'll get hit by a whopper soon.

Nice photos
I am just south of you in Long Island, NY definitely weird winter and things keep missing us. This morning it is actually very very light flurries but expected to last only a few hours and no accumulation.
Weirdest part as been the Temps to me. One day high in upper 50’s then next below 20 but then the following days all in 40’s or above and then the following week it seems to do it again.
Makes it nice to get out some weekends to hike and stuff we like to do outdoors in comfortable weather

Thanks. I gotta thank Long Island for blocking most of the worst weather and hurricanes that come up the coast towards us. Usually slams into Long Island, and then bounces off to the East towards Rhode Island, Cape Cod, etc...

The ones that force their way directly over Long Island, end up being weakened just before they get to us at the southern edge of the Northwest Hills in CT.

Temps have always been wildly fluctuating in this part of New England, but yeah, this year is very weird. Couple weeks ago we had almost -10 one day, and mid to upper 40's the next...and when the "bomb cyclone" hit a little while back, we went from 40's -50's and almost tropical like rain, to a string of below zero Fahrenheit days, almost overnight.

You're right though. It does make for easier hiking with the dogs on the milder days.

Finally got some snow today to. It's on the colder side, so it's sticking to the roads for the first time in awhile to. Not quite a "whopper", but a little bit back to normal for what we're used to this time of year.

View below out the greenhouse, which is definitely running on the propane heater, with no sun out today.

I know you folks up in the NE are use to the cold, but here in San Diego county we are not.

It's cold (40s or so) and raining/raining/raining. We need it. I'm sure the Colorado River needs it more because that's where we steal all the water from.

Funny thing, turn on the news and the weather crisis for the last couple of days and it's all Southern California. Weather in the 40s here makes the national news. It's got to get -20 before the NE even gets a mention. Why is that?

Also, I'm all electric and will probably remain so until all the EV cars steal all the electricity. I don't have to argue over Natural Gas or Propane. Although I do use a Big Buddy propane heater in my deer stand - does that count?

I love the dog pictures! My 13 year old German Short Hair sleeps all day in her bed. She beginning to snore now that she is older. That's ok, I find it soothing.

Sorry to interrupt the argument about natural gas, I thought the word was flatulence, please continue as it provides relief from the weather!

Mid to upper 80's today in Orlando. A bit warm for me. Good thing I have early tee times.

Lots of rain in Cleveland. Through March 1, we've gotten less snow than anytime in the last 50 years. I'll take it.

+1 Agreed. In NY State (Long Island) we only got a coating just a week ago and all melted by the afternoon and nothing the rest of the winter. This weekend supposed to get rain/snow mix but nothing that will amount to anything
