MoGrubb Posted December 14, 2007 Report Posted December 14, 2007 It's almost hot outside, particularly on asphalt parking lots. Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted December 15, 2007 Report Posted December 15, 2007 Bleedin' freezin' here!!!! The temp is not quite down to zero, but the wind is coming direct from Greenland! Spent about ten minutes shopping in Ton and was glad I was wearing wooly 'at, gloves, scarf, thick quilted jacket. And still glad my wife had the heater running all the time she was waiting for me!

sidewinder Posted December 15, 2007 Report Posted December 15, 2007 (edited) Bleedin' freezin' here!!!! I don't mind it too much - although it does tend to bump up the fuel bill somewhat. A mere trifle compared to my minimum temperature encountered whilst in Canada. -55C with the wind-chill. Edited December 15, 2007 by sidewinder Quote
AndrewHill Posted December 18, 2007 Report Posted December 18, 2007 Still in the 80s here in Fla. I have the damn air conditioner on tonight. Sunny, shorts and T-shirt during the days. It was mild last winter, but I've been here since the mid-80s and I can't recall anything like this. It's hot!! And a tropical storm in the Gulf? .... Yeesh. I hear ya. I grew up in South Florida (moved in 1988) and there was nothing like running the air conditioning on Christmas Day. We also used to spray fake snow on our windows and we also had a fake fireplace that we would set up in the living room. Now that I live in Ohio, I not only have a real fireplace but real snow! Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted December 18, 2007 Report Posted December 18, 2007 Still dry and still with a vicious wind - now from the east - and there's not a lot of high ground between here and the Urals. MG Quote
AndrewHill Posted December 18, 2007 Report Posted December 18, 2007 Still recovering from that huge storm that hit Ohio on Sunday, and got hit with that storm twice: first in Chicago on Saturday, then Cleveland on Sunday/Monday. Quote
Tim McG Posted December 18, 2007 Report Posted December 18, 2007 Rainy. Same here....and thank God, too. Quote

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted December 19, 2007 Report Posted December 19, 2007 Still dry and still with a vicious wind - now from the east - and there's not a lot of high ground between here and the Urals. MG Is it me or does it feel bl**dy freezing? It IS freezing. Not as bad here as in Scotland, I saw on TV this morning when I took a coffee in to my missus - -10C there. It's the price of oil. Those Russians have turned off their central heating so there's nothing to warm up the wind as it whips across Central Europe. MG Quote
papsrus Posted December 21, 2007 Report Posted December 21, 2007 Rain late last night. Sunny and warm today. Drove home from work last night with the top down! (before the rain). We're just not going to get much cool weather this year, me thinks. Quote
sidewinder Posted December 21, 2007 Report Posted December 21, 2007 It IS freezing. Not as bad here as in Scotland, I saw on TV this morning when I took a coffee in to my missus - -10C there. Geez ! I've put up with -55C in the frozen North and this feels colder ! Or maybe I've just turned into a Euro-wuss.. Quote

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted December 21, 2007 Report Posted December 21, 2007 The window cleaner came around a couple of hours ago. Now THAT is a job I definitely wouldn't want in this weather (well, I wouldn't want it any time, but especially not now)! MG Quote
Tim McG Posted December 21, 2007 Report Posted December 21, 2007 Clear and cool. High 40s today, low 30s tonight. Quote
sidewinder Posted December 21, 2007 Report Posted December 21, 2007 The window cleaner came around a couple of hours ago. Why is it mine turned up the day before the whole house was re-glazed? Quote
Free For All Posted January 3, 2008 Report Posted January 3, 2008 It's actually COLD here tonight, probably down into the teens overnight. I have to say I'm lovin' it! I've been waiting for some good winter weather. It won't be here long, though. If it's that cold this far south, you northerners are probably REALLY cold! We're talkin' "hamster sac" cold! Quote

Tim McG Posted January 3, 2008 Report Posted January 3, 2008 Cool. Rain tomorrow...or so we are told. Quote
T.D. Posted January 3, 2008 Report Posted January 3, 2008 Below zero (Fahrenheit) tonight. Just got through two snowstorms, 7" and 9", about 2-1/2 days apart. Hoping for a big thaw soon, close to 50 degrees expected early next week. Quote
Free For All Posted January 3, 2008 Report Posted January 3, 2008 doesnt this bring back memories? http://mansfieldnewsjournal.gannettonline....p;zipcode=44902 It sure does.......I remember some REALLY bitter winters in Chicago. I had some gigs in Fargo and Duluth (in January) some years ago, and it was RIDICULOUSLY cold. Like 100-below-zero wind chill, it just burned to try to breathe. Quote
T.D. Posted January 3, 2008 Report Posted January 3, 2008 Duluth in January...that's brutal. I shudder to even think about it. Quote
