HA! HAHAHA!
I live in San Luis Obispo and it hit a high of 85 degrees yesterday. This afternoon I will be going swimming.
global warming to the rescue!
Absolutely freezing up here in Canada. It’s been -25 Celsius without the wind factored in, with it factored in we’ve been hitting -35. One place was even at -40 before windchill a few nights ago.
Worst of all, it’s so cold that salt doesn’t work on the roads. Which means there’s a lot of ice. Which means a lot of traffic accidents. Over 200 yesterday in fact.
Hovering at 0° here in Iowa. Yesterday morning when we got up, it was -18. Not a good day for the motor on our furnace to burn out, but it did! Grrr…or I should say, Brrr!
Down here in Florida, the low has been around 22 degrees. I was outraged when I had to scrape ice off my windshield. I didn’t move here for this bullshit!
That being said, those of you reporting temperatures like -40F in Chicago and -40C in Canada make me want to head down to the southern hemisphere.
May I vent about this cold weather please? As I mentioned above, my husband is working outside in this weather. Yesterday the windchill never got warmer than -25 degrees. The “girls” at his work were able to leave at noon, the guys… well, no. They had to work a full day. Nothing is even working because it is too cold. Do the “guys” not feel the same effects of the cold? Ridiculous!
I agree Empress, they all pretty much do the same. Farm work. He can’t bitch because he doesn’t want to lose his job. So I told him to call me whenever he needs to vent. I feel guilty cuddled up in my bed fluthering while he’s out in this crap. Warm thoughts for blondesjon.
@EmpressPixie – Well, it’s one way of clearing things up. But if you are congested to begin with – this type of weather can be brutal! Talk about taking your breath away….
It was 79 degrees here in Phoenix yesterday and it is a balmy 77 degrees right now. It’s been a pleasant winter so far here in the desert. At night it gets down in the high 40’s and low 50’s. Is that considered cold? :o)
I used to send photo links of daffodils each January, when they start blooming, to my net friends up north. Then I discovered it wasn’t really appreciated, so I stopped. :o(
-6 today, and our nearest Vietnamese/Chinese/sushi restaurant burned down in the wee hours of the morning. There was another fire across town, and every fireman in the city, plus reserves, were called out.
In Montreal: Right now, it’s -23 Celsius (-9.4 F), yesterday it was -23 (-9.4 F) Celsius, and on Wednesday it was -23 Celsius (-9.4 F). That’s excluding windchill, by the way.
- 5 degrees celsius. Don’t know how much that is in fahrenheit, but it’ss below freezing… And it’s gonna get colder, down to about – 15 C in a couple of days…
