How's the weather where you are???

Here in Wisconsin it is brisk!!! it is currently -6 ... plus the windchill .. so outside it feels about -20 degrees f. It is so cold that even the dog wants to hide under the blankets! (we had to put his boots on today so when we go outside to do his stuff his paws don't crack or get doggy frost bite!)...
Eric is currently braving the cold for us to pick up some food for lunch today and dinner tomorrow as it is suppose to be EVEN colder tomorrow (they are saying -35!!! :banghead )...

I wish I was somewhere sunny on the beach right now sipping a pina colada instead of hot cocoa!
 
About 20 here but feels like 20 so not real windy. Temps tomorrow are going to be in the teens with feels like in the single digits. Then the snow will come in after dark.

I got my boots ready and found the dog sweater so if she does want to play in the snow on Monday, I will only have snow balls on her legs. Although she hasn't wanted to be out in it much at all.

As for her doing her thing, I've got her trained to use pee pads in the garage.
 
much more comfortable than the past few weeks.....granted it is only 8.30am so the day is still young! Currently its cloudy and 62F/17C, supposed to be 78F/26C so about average for this time of year. At this time of year where I am the killer is the humidity which could take the temperature up again by about 5 or so
 
Cold, wet, soggy, gross!
It's about 35 right now, but we had sleet/ice all night that changed to rain today.
Good news, I can see a bit of grass in my yard after over a month with snow on it.
Bad news, we are supposed to get more rounds of this sleet/ice/snow mess this week.
 
@dotcomkari a pina colada on the beach sounds wonderful!

It's not quite that cold here in PA, but we have a lot of snow on the ground which is melting slowly, and then refreezes and everyone drags in dirt and salt, and it's just gross and impossible to keep the laundry room floor where we keep our shoes clean. The temp is about 28 degrees out and we might get a 'wintery mix' later tonight.

It’s been lightly snowing all day. (Southeast Michigan)

Wisconsin weather usually ends up here a couple of days later, after getting changed up a bit crossing Lake Michigan. I hope it’s milder than what you have when it gets here!

I wouldn't count on it being milder! I'm 90 minutes south of Toledo and the frigid is hitting my area tomorrow. There is a polar vortex covering the middle of the country all the way down to Mexico. Moving to the east over the next few days.
 
We've just suffered through the worst of it I think. We've had over a week with the temperatures around -26C to -28C and with the wind chill down to -40C some days. DH had to walk from work to his car and it was -38C with the wind chill and even he said it was cold! I hear that we are going up to -15C next week, and I'm looking forward to it! :) (little joys of winter).
 
Its been around -15 C every morning this week. It generally "warms" up to about -10 C. I've barely stepped out of the house all week, except for groceries and to have lunch with my mom and dd, definitely no walks happening!

Yikes!! That's really not fun!!
 
It's cold! I live in Arkansas and we're not used to a lot of cold. It's currently 14F/-10C with a windchill of 1F/-17C. It's supposed to snow this week and be even colder. I think we have a high of 7F forecasted on Monday and an overnight low of -6F. Everything's still covered in ice from last week; so the snow this week could make it interesting.
 
Wow, it's COLD near a lot of you! I'm in Virginia, near DC. It's a few degrees colder than usual, but nothing extreme--I think our high today was about 30F. We got a mix of freezing rain and sleet all day, so it's icy.
 
We're in that Polar Vortex! Horribly cold and not normal! This whole section of the country is frigid!
 
In Belgium the past week was cold ... Sunday and Monday it snowed ... it was gray weather ...From Wednesday the sun was shining but it remained very cold .. at night temperatures down to - 11 ° C - during the day the mercury did not rise above zero.From Friday the wind started to blow and it feels even colder ... but today it would get softer ... but ... from tomorrow it starts to rain again ... means that tomorrow it will be very slippery ... the second half of next week, temperatures will rise to 10 ° C ...
 
Hot and humid here in Durban, South Africa! Although it started raining a couple of minutes ago so it's cooled down to a more bearable 25C (77F).

I'm willing to trade Pina Coladas for some snow!

Is been pretty cold all week, all the way down to single digits and a negative wind chill in the middle of the day; I don't want it to get any colder! LOL I tend to burrow in when it's "extemely" warm (above 86 degF or so, depending on humidity) or extremely cold (below 16 degF or so, depending on wind chill.)

(Extremely is in quotes because it is subjective. LOL Those are my I-don't-care-how-wound-up-the-dogs-are-we-are-not-taking-a-long-walk" temperatures. We have a relatively large yard, with the backyard down a hill, so I will walk them all around the house every time they go out, down the hill and up again, for minimal exercise. I just won't do the 1-3 mile walks that I'm trying to make into a habit.)
 
I've been monitoring...

At 4 a.m. it was -9 F / -23 C
At 5 a.m. it was -7 F / -22 C
At 8 a.m. it was -6 F / -21 C

And all without the wind chill which they say brings it down to -24 F / -31 C and colder.
Earlier this week it was -13 F.
