Today's paw walk forecast calls for rain. Just kind of steady all day long and then more rain overnight. The wind is blowing and there are good smells in the air. It's a good day for napping.

Today's paw walk forecast started out with a balmy 38 degrees this morning. I know you other pups are out there with - type degrees, but for us in Seattle almost 2 weeks of below freezing and then the last week all foggy was miserable.
Rain started falling mid morning, but not anywhere near as daunting as those weather people bragged about.
Sure enough, some warm air is giving us a break in cloud activity until tomorrow afternoon and then we will have rain.

Today's paw walk forecast was foggy for the morning and cold all day long. There are clouds off Vancouver Island, B.C. headed down south to Seattle. Normally that isn't anything to bark about, but we've had clear skies for 12 days in a row in January. There are burn bans all over the place unless that is your only source of heat.
Gonna be cold and clear most of the night and again freezing paw temperatures in the morning. Mom has been leaving the heat on overnight in an attempt to help keep the pipes under the house warm. Lots of laundry and dishwashering in the ninja of the night activity (time delay) as well. Let's just say that all our rugs, blankets and beds smell blucky fresh.
Tomorrow morning for the worst commute day of the week, expect heavy rain, temperatures finally in the mid 40's and a long commute to work form Mom in the morning. I think I'll just cuddle up on the couch after she leaves and have a little sleep in. BOL.

Today's paw walk forecast has brought some warmer temperatures and the sun has finally burned off the fog. Blue sky and the last of the snow is melted away. Good news pups - my water dish has finally melted and I'm so excited I have to go visit it every 5 minutes and say hi.

Today's paw walk forecast calls for fog lights on your booties. The fog never lifted today and makes it an even more eerie day than just low clouds and what the PNW calls "heavy mist". This stuff settles on your fur if you spend time outside trying to find the other side of your yard.
Freezing again all day and night. No fun in that at all. I can only sleep so many days in a row and the weekend is upon us. Who wants to sleeps through that other than Mom?

Today's paw walk forecast is very different than the last 6 days or so. Still really cold, but the fog has settled in. You can only see to the end of the deck and then all dogs are lost in the backyard. Yep, we go incognito in the fog.
Still chilly out there and the fog just gets denser.

Today's paw walk forecast is just another repeat of yesterday. Cold, cold, cold. Moms been doing a bunch of extra laundry and runs the dishwasher more often than usual. She sets them to run at different times at night to keep water flowing through the pipes. She's paranoid (now that she is a homeowner BOL) of all kinds of stuff breaking or happening.
Wind blows - keep an eye on those tree limbs.
Cold weather - pipes freezing.
Snow - full on panic mode.
Sunshine - water plants all the time.
Rain - worry only if a pond starts out across the backyard and ducks land. Freak out if it gets any bigger the next day. BOL.
I was also a DDP today. Thanks to Zoe for the MEATZ™ and Hershey and Winkie for the pink rosette. Congrats to Fizzy and Coco Rose for DDP today too.

Today's paw walk forecast calls for more of the same stuff. Bright sky, cold ground. The snow is still on the ground, but it is only about 3/4" deep so the grass sticks through all over the place. Snow isn't really snow anymore, just cold frozen tundra.
The good news is I have almost eaten all the frozen snow/ice off the deck. I'm still angry the dog dishes (all 3 of them) outside are still frozen solid. Mom says she won't do anything about it since they will just freeze solid again anyways. Sure I have water inside, but it doesn't compare to fresh rainwater or in these dire needs, 5 day old snow.
We won't see temperatures warm enough to melt stuff for the next couple days. 40 paw walking degrees would be lovely right about now, but don't remind me of that in a couple more weeks when weather snaps back into the rain season. BOL.

Today'w paw walk forecast calls for that bright stuff in the sky, but no heat. It is a very cold 18 degrees out there. I've seen colder temperatures posted on Dogster today - some of them in the negatives. Which makes no sense to this dog. I mean if the food bowl is empty, it doesn't get any emptier.
The snow still hasn't melted off the grass or the deck that wasn't swept off. I keep wanting to run out there and eat as much snow as I can. So far no brain freeze BOL.
Stay warm pups they are talking possible snow for tomorrow.

Today's paw walk forecast calls for really clear sky. The ground is still all white and will stay that way until the weather gets above freezing. I have been chipping off the ice from the water dish outside and trying to pry it off the deck where it froze.
Gonna be another cold night tonight so we are going to play dog pile on Mom again tonight in the bed. BOL
