What's the weather like where you are?

It has been wet and boggy and this morning foggy. Collectively, over the last couple of days, less than a half inch has fallen here. It seems like more than that. There hasn't been a dry moment. Currently it is 48° with no wind and 99% humidity. The forecast has a sunny day ahead with it getting into the mid fifties for a high.
 
Yesterday, it was nice with a high of 51° and no wind. Today is to be similar but windy from the South with cloud cover. It will be the best day to do something outside for the next few days. Rains turning into snow is forecasted for the weekend and Monday with highs below freezing. I'm not looking forward to crummy winter weather but hey, it's that time of year. o_O
 
Dark and gloomy with a light rain falling. It is so dark that I slept almost an hour later than normal. Now I feel like a slug. Currently it is 47° and .17" has fallen. The forecast is calling for a high today of 49° with the rain leaving the area in a couple of hours. It is to become windy to the extent that a wind alert has been issued. The moisture is predicted to return late Sunday and into Monday as snow.

I don't have a fireplace but I appreciate the thought. I invested in some portable heat a couple of years ago when I lost power for a couple of days in the dead of winter. I had a couple of portable LP heaters in storage that were left over from work. One heater was notorious for fuming and had to be used in a well vented area. The one I tried to use refused to stay lit after being stored for a couple of decades. I ultimately bought this.

I had to keep my home warm to keep my parrot alive. The heater worked great. I lost an albino cockatiel many years ago due to no heat. I didn't want to lose another buddy.
 
I had to run to Wichita late this morning to take some spokes to the bike shop where I do business. When my weather app warned of high winds, it wasn't kidding. The wind was pushing cars all over the road. My commute took me through a new business area that has multiple constructions sites in progress. I had to smile as I passed them. All of the port-a-pots were laying on their sides. The terrible wind has created a terrible chore for someone. My weather station logged a max gust at 78.7mph.

My sister has a fake fireplace for her living room to keep it warm, really works wonderful, my buddy has a few heaters too, my mother purchased them with him a few weeks ago.

The snow is attatching to the upstairs windows so bad.. I am glad we are staying in.
 
It has turned bitter cold and the forecast has it remaining so today. It is currently 21° with feel like temps in the single digits. The high today is to be below freezing and the wind is to continue to make the out of doors seem bitter. Snow is predicted for early morning Monday and to continue through the daylight hours. An inch accumulation is anticipated.

I don't know about other areas but snow depth predictions are a joke in Kansas. I've never seen it close to being accurate. It is either generally difficult to predict or Kansas is in a region with too many variables. One way or another, nobody around here takes stock of snow depth forecasts.
 
My area has now been added to the winter advisory list for tomorrow. The one inch accumulation has now been increased to three. I'm guessing that means we will see no snow. They had the cold and windy correct so who knows. I'm just glad that I don't have to drive across town to work tomorrow. That would hold true even if it doesn't snow. 🤣
 
The big snow that was in the forecast fell North of me.. what a surprise. We did get a slight dusting that you could see on the deck. It stayed below freezing all day but is to be warmer tomorrow. Mid forties is forecasted and I hope that have that right. I'm pretty anxious to do some riding.
