We just got clobbered by extremely hard winds here and heavy rain and hail. Lasted about 5 minutes but it was powerful.

Sounds like a microburst. Had one here a few weeks ago. Duration is from 5 to 15 minutes.
Snow flurries reported in the Adirondacks and western Catskills. We are forecast (by accuweather @weather.com) to be 19°F and have flurries in a week or so. Hope they're right. Last year they predicted 4" of snow and we ended up with 3' and snowed in.

Last night some hail and wind here 40-50 miles per Hour, nothing special after that big one.

Back when I lived in Old Forge (In the Adirondacks) I was snowed in from October to the late spring. Temps ranged from 5-10 deg by day to -60 - -30 at night. When I retire I'll be hading up to the Yukon. There I expect to be regularly snowed in all winter... which lasts very long.
Incidentally, one thing I can't stand about Joan Jett is that she is a supporter of PETA. I hate PETA. Otherwise she still looks good for her old age.

Had our very first snow here this morning. Temps are going down to the low 20's tonight. It's 32 deg and I am going outside to barbecue in the wind and cold. I don't know about the rest of you but I love this kind of weather.

Supposed to be a big temp drop tonight. Windy and rain for this evening (no rain yet) and a drop into the 20's by morning. I am glad that I finally fixed the heat in my van on Sunday.....

some people are like slinkys, not really good for anything, but still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.
Close to 92 here today, still 81 out. Brrrrrrrr.
