My favourite "you'll be late to work again, suckers" announcement came on a dry, sunny Tuesday morning when I swear I heard over the tannoy that the delay was due to a lightning strike.

Oh dear, don't say things like that. I'm going camping in Edale this weekend and really really don't want the trains to be delayed.

It drives me insane when the announcement is "We apologise that the x.xx train to [location] is delayed due to slippery rail conditions". It's England. It's November. It is definitely going to rain.

Last winter the school system had a 2-hour delay due to excessive cold. No snow, but it was 0 degrees Fahrenheit.

I was amused when I saw an email earlier today from the graduate college saying some event they were going to have tonight was cancelled because of "potential cold/windy conditions".

The rain gauge in my back yard indicates that we have had 3.4 inches of rain since Thursday evening.

You're forgetting.  It's autumn, so the problem is not the rain, but the wrong sort of leaves.
From time to time (including during the storms last week) our public transport is disrupted by the wrong sort of waves.

Last winter the school system had a 2-hour delay due to excessive cold. No snow, but it was 0 degrees Fahrenheit.

That is because it takes longer for the buses (which run on diesel fuel) to warm up. Diesel fuel has this bad habit of gelling up at temps around 0F.

Snowed yesterday and stayed.  It probably isn't permenant, but it's still here.

Every November, I am reminded that by the time the snow falls, it's bleak and dreary outside with dead grass and leaves fallen that, aesthetically, the world really needs some snow.

So pretty.

I remember Canada officially changing to celsius, but i still encounter fahrenheit from time to time even in Canada.  So for me it's never really been a big deal.

40 Farenheit is roughly 4 degrees celsius, while 17F is -8.3C, my record low (without wind chill) is -50F, or -45.5.

For the curious my record high is 60C (aka 140F)

The cold isn't all that notable (but it is COLD), but the high is presumably indoors, since it's higher than the world record for measured temp.

Don't forget that official world records are for specific conditions: Two meters above the ground, and shielded from direct sunlight. It is perfectly possible to experience and measure higher temperatures locally.

I am so lost on farenheight temperatures.

0F = -18C. So it was definitely cold when they had the school cancellation I mentioned, and I guess I can understand their justification (which was that the school buses and even some school buildings have poor heating, so it would be unsafe for the children). '

When I was in elementary school in Ohio, we had "indoor recess" if it was below 10F or if the windchill was below 0.

Then when I was in high school in North Carolina, stuff like football games would be cancelled or delayed because it was too hot. One year our homecoming got rescheduled because it was still going to be over 100 at 6 in the evening.

Hottest I've experienced was 105, and I had to spend most of that day outside working at a summer camp. Coldest I've experienced is -20, which was not in Cleveland but actually atop Grandfather Mountain in NC.

I hope it snows this year. West Coast people can't handle driving in the snow so school would be totally closed down. One has to realize the coldest temperature I can remember was a balmy -10C (14 F). If there's even an inch of snow everyone freaks out and most people can't even use their driveways. My friend from Toronto just laughs at us. There's a bit of chill in the air lately too, so maybe I'll finally get my snow day that I've been waiting a good 13 years for

Don't forget that official world records are for specific conditions: Two meters above the ground, and shielded from direct sunlight. It is perfectly possible to experience and measure higher temperatures locally.

The cold was notable to me because I was out in it for two weeks with minimal food and shelter. Add in a 10 degree + wind chill and you have yourself some misery.

The heat was quite simply created. Stupid hot day (common in the Sonoran desert, shit gets hot out there) then you add in a very, very, very large black tarmac that is just soaking up heat. Throw in lots of heavy equipment with large engines radiating heat and the numbers start to make sense. On any given airfield it's easily 10 degrees or more warmer then the surrounding area. So the Ambient temperature we worked in on a day to day basis (you spend a lot of time outside in the military) was 115 to well over 120 degrees, hitting our record spike was fun though! I'm just glad we didn't get a SAR call.

Yes, the restrictions on "hottest temperature" are precisely becuase so many human factors increase the actual air temperature.

Sound like anywhere from 10-20 cm of snow today.  I used to live further north and get less snow.  Stupid lake effect.  :(

Coldest day for me might just be the only time we ever got sent home from school.  It was in the -40s I think, and the wind was making the power lines whistle.

What kind of backwards-ass world is it where the high temperature occurs before sunrise. That's okay, after a full day of driving rain I welcome the snow tomorrow with open arms.

I went to the NOAA website to check the weather. Currently for my area there is a Flood Watch, Winter Storm Warning, and High Wind Warning.

IT'S BEEN HAPPILY DRY HERE FOR DA why is this al in capitals? I [romise I am not drunf I am trying to type with one hand uand a book over the keys

Right, I have finished eating my gluten-free, vegan pizza (it was about as good as you'd expect) and removed the book from the keyboard. It's been happily dry here for days, which makes cycling to uni much more pleasant. Today, however, I got the train... and of course it was delayed. There was no bad weather to blame, so this time it was an electrical fault.

I was riding in a bus a little while ago, and all of a sudden an emergency alert broke in for a high wind warning. Including in that warning was that "high profile vehicles" could be blown over...didn't help make my trip anymore comfortable.

The snow's pretty much stopped now. Also I was in a hurry and couldn't find my gloves, so I made the mistake of leaving without them. Now think I have an idea of what the beginnings of frostbite (before permanent damage is done) feels like, because when I came in out of the cold my thumb (just one thumb) was red and throbbing and hurt like all hell for like 30 minutes.

So it's a bit windy here. Nothing big.

But in my hometown basically everything is closed and shut down because of one of the most severe storms for a few decades. Winds with over 200km/h. Damn.

Well, here we don't have a lot of wind. It's my hometown, where it's so bad. I'm a bit afraid, as during the last storm the roof of my grandparents' house was damaged, and I'm not sure if they had it repaired yet. Gratned, they live about 100km north from my hometown, but it's supposed to be pretty bad there as well.

Also the 200km/h are not constant. Currently the average seems to be at 25 m/s, so about 90 km/h/56 mph

I'm lying in bed, still slightly feverish, safely in my basement room about 700km south of my hometown.

Today: Warm and sunny
Tomorrow: Cold and rainy
Sunday: Colder and snowing
Monday: Warmer and raining
Tuesday: Cold and raining

I love the occasional rainstorm, but I am not looking forward to being drenched for the next 4 days except for the one day in the middle where I'm frozen.

It is currently -2°F (-19°C) in my neck of the North Woods.

The predicted low for tonight? -17°F (-27°C).

And that DOESN'T include the wind chill.

snow and freezing rain where I am.  The snow it slushy now but everything is glazed in thick ice.
