Today, it is drab, dark, and dreary here in Florida. We are lucky. In some parts of the country, the weather is terrible. How is the weather at your place? https://www.reuters.com/world/us/thousands-flights-delayed-across-us-one-dead-deadly-tornado-storms-hit-holiday-2024-12-29/

We had about ten minutes of sunshine and that’s it, for 7 straight days. Today is big winds, rain, and not warm. But no tornadoes so I am thankful for that!

At least the sun made an appearance. I'm glad there were no tornados. We had two hurricanes in a row; they did a lot of damage around here. Some other counties had it worse.

@MarieCoyle I read an account of a mother and children who survived a tornado by flipping their couch over and she and the kids hid under it. I keep that in mind because most people in Florida don't have basements

@akalinus Today was yet another dreary day, occasional misty rain. But no tornados...I don't like those, either. I no longer have a basement to hide in if one gets close, but many people don't. All we can do is the best we can to keep ourselves safe.

We had forecasted that we were going to have heavy rain for five days. But we had just drizzling for a couple of days. Today is Monday and the sky is clear.It's a sunny Monday.I love sunny days.Now days are expected to get colder everyday.

It is warm today. It is winter season here. How long are your winters? I thought it was hot in India for most of the year.

@Shivram59 It must be hard to get used to it changing quickly. Do people get sick when the weather changes for the worst?

@akalinus No; we have as many as six seasons in our country. Now we have winter. Within next four or five days the temperature will start falling. In the northern part of India it is snowfall. A lot of tourists are there enjoying. The area we live in never has snowfall. I have never seen how it looks when snow falls and the whole area gets covered with snow.

Tornados are the worst, especially at night when you can't see them. They are terrifying. I'm glad you are okay. We had two back-to-back. They caused a lot of destruction.

@akalinus It can sometimes physically hurt. But, for the most part, it just zaps my energy and I feel like a slug.

@kaylachan I understand that. Weather can alter the way we feel. I don't do well in the cold. My roommate also hurts when the weather changes drastically without much going on before. Like hot one day and much colder the next.

Dark and rainy is a sad combination. It can be soothing to hear the rain on the roof or it can be scary. How do you feel about it?

Rain I could handle. It is that 's' word that I can't handle. Do you like winter weather? Do you enjoy rain?

@LindaOHio, I do not like polar vortexes. I don't like snow. Rain is good especially in warm weather. I made a rule every year. It said there will be no snow this winter. It did not matter. We had lots of snow and blizzards. I moved to Florida instead.

@akalinus I HATE WINTER AND S**W. Rain is OK if it's not cold outside. We have another Winter Storm Watch for this week and a Polar Vortex possibly next week!!! Have a pleasant New Year's Eve.

Currently, at 3:30pm it is sunny and 64 degrees in Oklahoma. We’ve had dreary weather so long the sun shining seems incredibly foreign.

I think that sunshine cheers people up a lot. Dreary weather is depressing if it lasts too long.

We actually had a lovely morning, and early afternoon although windy. It is starting to cloud up now though. I suspect we will be hit with rain soon.

Was it cold rain or did it get hot outside? Are you still in hurricane season?

Fog is hard to drive in. I have done it and it is not fun, especially at night. Bright and sunny is my favorite.

I like hotter. I don't like cold much. We are in the winter season here, I think. It has been cold and rainy the last couple of days but it is 80 F degrees today. Go figure.

It is warm where I am staying now. 30C in the morning and 33C by afternoon. You get tired if you spent more than an hour outdoors. Ideally , it should be cool at this time of the year . Perhaps climate change . There has not been rain for almost a month and well there are certain ares nearby which got some rain. Little worried on the upcoming summer. The heatwaves could make things worse and well things should be hopefully fine. Seems, you have a better weather there in Florida. Well, enjoy the time!

We recently had two devastating hurricanes back-to-back. They did a lot of damage. The heat waves were excessive here. Going outside, it felt like an oven with a blower on. I felt sorry for workers outside.
