In reply to liz.

HI Liz,

Thanks for your interest in this descriptive thesaurus. 🙂 The Weather Thesaurus is not a book, but the entire thesaurus can be accessed in full with a One Stop for Writers membership: https://onestopforwriters.com/weathers

I like winter and snow, and I’ve noticed that I often use the cold in my stories. I should definitely bookmark this post for future reference!

I just realized it’s never been winter in on of my manuscripts. Maybe because I don’t like the cold. I should mix things up and have winter make an appearance.

You came to my favorite season. Winter, as you noted, is the ‘interior’ season.

Brrr… I’m in Mexico and we’ve been having really nice weather. In the twenties everyday. However, I heard Calgary went up to fifteen yesterday. Thanks for this entry.

Excellent descriptives.
I can’t believe we haven’t had much snow here in Illinois. No accumulation yet. And it was 48 degrees today in January! (though I’m not complaining! I’d like a little snow though, because it looks pretty. I just hate driving in it!)

Awesome job, Ange. We finally got a taste of winter in south Florida, and I’m loving it!

Winter is such a daunting, magical force to be reckoned with. (Side note: My last book took place in winter!)

Great post! :)

If I could suggest an addition to the Touch category? Extreme cold (-20 and below ambient temp) means that the nose hairs start to freeze together from the moisture in our breath. The sharp sting in the nasal passages is a piquant counterpoint to the slow congealing of the other extremities as they slowly freeze solid. (Poetic words for a harsh reality here in balmy MN . . .)

Great stuff! Been chilly here and this sums it all up! Actually getting some ideas too for the WIP as we speak. 🙂

I’ve been waiting for you to include Winter in your thesaurus. My WIP begins in the winter and ends early spring. Now that winter has arrived, I should start taking notes. 🙂
