I'd never heard of it. I'm a radar junky when storms are around. I like Wunderground and the Wundermap. It's pretty well real time, but I'd like to find something that has more features and a better radar image

I agree! I’ve never hit refresh so many times in my life.
Looks like it's right over the area right now.
Thanks Haertig.

It is a brisk 17 degrees this morning, but peaceful. Nothing like what all of you in the South have experienced overnight. I hope all of you are safe and your homes are undisturbed.
WIND, WIND, WIND!! Wind advisory here in N Tx today, already had 48mph gusts on my home weather station!!

We have been hearing news that today was supposed to have hurricane force winds and to plan accordingly. I got up and everything was still and calm and the sky was mostly clear. I left the house to pick up the first dog at 7:30. Dog owner said this must be the calm before the storm. We were at the dog park and I could see clouds rolling in quickly. At 8:00 it hit. The wind was so strong and carrying so much debris that it was blinding. The dog was terrified and when I headed to the gate to leave, she ran there ahead of me. By the time we made the short walk to the car it was raining and sleeting. I took her home and everyone else has cancelled for today, thankfully! I had talked to all of them on Monday about this prediction, so everyone could be mentally prepared for this impending storm. I am home wiping the grit out of the corner of my eyes. Temperature was around 45 earlier, 39 degrees now. There were branches down in several places on my way home.
Meanwhile in Alaska...

Very windy here this morning...large, dark clouds slowly drifting....
Yeah, they're bad here just north of you too. We took the trampoline down yesterday after hearing the forecast. The kids moved out long ago, and that old tramp has just been a shaded storage covering. Figured it was time to get rid of it anyway, before the wind took it. I don't think the wind will get that strong here. That tramp was heavy. Two of us couldn't lift or drag it - we had to disassemble it in place. That's what you get for buying a super heavy duty Binford 6100 trampoline.
Sunny and 50s here
Oh come on, it's REALLY that size!!
When it's -21 and almost 80% humidity strange things happen to tools.
I'm speaking of chain saws, of course.

!! I'm talking "chainsaws" too!!
Warm and sunny today, 60's. The wind picked up late in the day.
Cold, minus 30 c, glad I plowed snow yesterday all I did outside today was feed critters and firewood.

it was a beautiful day in north central Texas. Right now it is 73°. Still have windows open in the house.
You sent it our way, Pearl. It was crazy windy last night and it warmed up considerably. Ideal tornado weather.
It's a crazy December!!
It is a balmy minus 12 c this morning, 10 F yesterday as mentioned was minus 30 c , 22 below F, with no apparent weather system change, but we get big swings in this part of the world.
The official forecast says we should warm up. Its -6F with wind chill at -31. Humidity is at near 80% so the moisture adds to the chill.
I hope the forecast is correct as I want it a bit warmer before I go out and tackle those snow drifts. Otherwise I’ll be a big chilly today

Thunderstorms overnight, cold (for Texas) tomorrow. Dropping to the low 40's during the day, freeze tomorrow night. Like summer for ya'll WAY up north!
68 today and dreary. .15" of rain this morning. Drizzle all day. More or less same thing tomorrow, just more rain. 80% chance
Windy, chilly
I just had a storm blow through but it was silent. Only noticed when I lost tv and internet, rain got that heavy. It's still warm out, wind straight out of the south, this morning was more se.
I didn't expect rain off the cold front to the west until tomorrow.
