Like it'll be warm enough to pour a needed concrete pad soon weird?

Warm enough they’re putting in swimming pools in the Twin Cities!!

St. Paul family installs pool in February

With temperatures above-average so far this winter, one family is taking advantage of the circumstances ? by installing a pool.

I think if you can cover it with concrete blankets maybe? Not a engineer.

@HFCS are you on the high (solid) ground?

I usually make fun of people here for being soft about weather but this really was a lot of rain for 3 days. My roof leaked but luckily got someone to fix it mid way through. It’s worse for people in hills or desert regions.

If you’ve seen Terminator 2 or Grease that huge empty concrete ravine for car chases is the “LA River” I live about 4 blocks from. Usually it’s a tiny 4 foot wide creek but now it looks more like the Missouri River.

Yeah, Some of the rainfall totals I've seen down there are impressive no matter where you are. 6"+ of rain in the lowlands in 2-3 days is a lot. Throw in the fact that most of the LA area should be a desert and it's easy to see how bad it can get quickly.

I could run the bulldozer right now. Not prepared to, but I could.

I started flagging plots today. No frost but it’s a mud hole. Need more heat to dry things out before anyone could take machinery out there

Awful early for that, and not equipment obviously.

If I can walk over fields, I’m gonna get stuff done. Makes my March a lot easier.

Polar vortex back by end of February

Should be cold, but at least not -20 at night cold

 

[CYaeger]

52 degrees here in the Des Moines metro at 3:00 AM. Unreal warmth for early February. I love it.

 

[Tailg8er]

Been windy AF all night at our place in Johnston. Have a trip to Atlanta next weekend and looking like highs in the 50s with lows in the 30s, might as well just stay home.

I don't mind a good 'crisp' cold at all.

I don't like 'can't go outside for 5 minutes' cold.

 

[Al_4_State]

I'm seeing highs above 30 into the last week of February.

 

[Gunnerclone]

I'm seeing highs above 30 into the last week of February.

The weather lead in on the local news was “enjoy it while it lasts (50’s)….the cold will return next week as we dive in to the mid-40’s”. What?
