Visibility will be suddenly reduced to near zero at times in heavy snow and blowing snow
 
We’ve had much the same forecast for much of the central Midwest for several days. We’ve had the snow amount backed off to maybe a couple inches rather than 6” potential. One thing they haven’t backed off on is wind and falling temps. We live in NE Illinois. Still 28 degrees. My brother lives 200 miles west in Illinois. It’s already 4 degrees there. We will be 4 by late afternoon and 10 below by morning. Get out the long John’s boys and girls. Gonna be getting serious here right quick now.

Joking aside. My Tone Room family. If you’re in this. Stay safe. Dress properly if you have to go outside. And if you don’t really have to get out…. Throw another log on the fire and sip your favorite beverage. That’s our plans.

Sorry guys,
According predictions issued Dec. 20, San Diego is expected to have temperatures in the 70s throughout Christmas weekend. A high temperature of 75 degrees is expected Christmas Eve (Saturday) and a high of 76 degrees is expected Christmas Day (Sunday).

I'll be thinking of you all while I sit at the rooftop bar with a cocktail!

Yeah but San Diego is exempt from any weather which includes the word "bad" in it.
Its the only place on earth you can drive with your top down all year long
 
Not much snow at all lately here. Just cold. Had a skiff the other day I shovelled it quickly yesterday.
Windchill was minus 40C but with my second heaviest coat and insulated pants and a balaclava, set n done. Took 15 mins. Was chilly but doable.
Sweat on back of my neck when I got in.
Sunny. I would rather have this than a snow storm amd be way warmer.
