Atlanta are is getting it now. Supposed to last until 7pm tonight. Luckily, I only have to venture out for school drop off and pick up.

Traffic lights at W Esplanade and Causeway out. And no JP to control traffic flow.

That should go well.

We are getting pummeled with snow up in WI (away from the lake). They called schools and canceled pretty much everything today and will likely tmrw too. We've got about 3" of heavy/wet snow with another 6-8" coming thru this evening. A little burst of another couple inches Wed night and then a possibly even larger event FRI night/SAT morning--could bring another near foot of snow. Behind that is a cold front that will keep us around single digit highs with lows at night below zero. Winter has finally arrived.

Apple Weather is predicting that the New Orleans area is going to have lows in the mid-20s next week (starting the morning of Tues, Jan 16th). It hasn't been that cold here for a LONG time ... maybe since Mardi Gras Day 2014 (and that might have just been ~32F or so)?

EDIT: Tuesday March 4, 2014 was in the mid- to -high 30s between 9 am and noon. North wind of about 10 mph sustained. Seems that it was at least drizzling, as well. Some of my family had gone to the Rex parade route early that Mardi Gras Day and complained of sitting out in the bitter cold all morning.


EDIT2: Well, geez ... right before Christmas 2022, we had two days of morning temps in the 20s. Great memory here!


EDIT3: From here. I do not recall all these days in the 20s. I've gone years without wearing a heavy coat outside. Guess as long as I don't have to actually stay outside, a sweater with a windbreaker are good enough.

I'm in the Dallas area and we just had a front start moving in, assuming this is what will move to LA soon. It got helllllla windy within 2 hours and temps dropped down to the high 30's.

Stay safe over there.

Late this weekend into next week, I think we're gonna find out if those "improvements" ERCOT made after the Feb 21 winter storm were adequate. Looking brutally cold.

Let's hope that the "improvements" will work. I don't think we're getting snow, but I could be wrong. I've seen wintry mix.

i skirted thru Lakeway to Severn to W Esplanade.

felt bad for folks headed to Airline/Earhart area - not only was that light out, but the one at 17th and Causeway was too. Double whammy

 

[BooBirdSaint]

Lots of wind today.

Looks like there may be a slight chance of wintry precipitation in southern Louisiana early next week.

But as is often the case, this is likely a sensationalized outlook/forecast.

Well lows will be in the 20s and some chance of lingering precip so it may provide a light dusting.
