Is anyone else freezing their ass off?

Or is it just me? Seventeen degrees tonight.......
And in outlying areas, a few degrees colder. WTF people?
This is middle Georgia! Yes, it's worse in Boston...but it's supposed to be!
Old people move here to get away from the cold - this is classic "bait and switch!"
Luckily it will be 80 degrees in a month during the day, but still.....

 

I'm on the other side of Atlanta from you, it's going to be 8 degrees at my house tonight. If I walk to the neighbor's house it will be 13 degrees. My house sits in a low spot and is always 5-6 degrees colder than the surrounding houses.

 

I hear you! I hate when the local radio guy says "it's 38 degrees at the airport, not too bad" and I'm scraping frost off my damn car windows.

 

Zero degrees here, and possibly dropping to negative double digits overnight. I'm leaving a trickle of water running through the bathroom tap all night to keep the pipes from freezing.

I've been sleeping with two humidifiers in the room and running them all night to get the humidity up to about 50 percent. Then when I get home., it's dropped back down to 30.

 

It was -25 when I rode to work this morning. Beautiful weather!

 

It was 85 today. It is starting to get hot out here in the desert.

 

-3F at the moment, with windchill it's -15F.

 

Where is Al Gore when you need him? An extra .0000001 percent temp increase would be greatly appreciated.
Just kidding! I know temperature does not equal climate.

 

I'll be at 85 soon enough thank you, and tack on 90 percent humidity and it's party down in Georgia! I'd rather have the cold (at least in small doses only).

 

Woke up to 6 degrees here this morning. Bracing!

 

It was so cold this morning...
HOW COLD WAS IT?
It was so cold, that when I changed the volume on my car radio, the display did a slow fade instead of just popping to the next numbers. It was like it was in pain.
The dashboard thermometer said zero, but I think that may be because it doesn't go into negative numbers.

 

Right now, 7, real feel is -12, so really not too bad. After all the snow we've had, a cold but sunny stretch is just fine with me.

 

I just keep thinking - just two or three more months and I'll be able to break out the flip-flops again!

 

Thanks to a single episode of freezing rain, my parking area behind the house is a skating rink. So despite my new MORE POWER snow blower, we're still parked at the end of the driveway. A couple of sunny days with the temp above freezing might thaw the parking area, but... oh look, 3 more inches of snow predicted for tonight.

 

This cold turned out to be a blessing. I had to do some work that would have had me laying in water.
That water is now ice, so I don't get soaked.

 

I wore flip flops this morning when I went out for a smoke.

 

I saw kid at a bus stop in shorts and it was about 15 degrees. Go figure!

 

He's a weirdo. It was in the 80's yesterday and again today. Well, maybe 79. It is cooler in San Diego, in the 70's with an off shore breeze, but still lovely weather. Life isn't too bad in the Imperial Valley this time of year; it is the summer time when you don't want to be here.

 

That's what happened to me this morning too. And when I took my dog out, he literally left behind a steaming pile of shit. I shit you not, there was steam (vapor) coming off of his shit.

 

Projected high of -5 F tomorrow. Currently, it's -14 F ambient, and -37 F with wind chill. Guess who gets to work out in that shit...

 

I think our cold front may have finally passed. It's currently 34F at 2am and it's supposed to stay around that temp. the rest of the week.

God, I'm so ready for spring.

 

You can keep the humidity. I likes my heat as dry as a martini.

Which is the only reason I won't relocate outta this state.

 

Cold...is...outta here! Back up to 65 yesterday evening. This is more like it! Better a 50 degree rise than a 50 degree drop - unless it's in July of course.
Sadly there is a chance (according to a longer term forecast) that another freezing rain storm could hit next weekend.

 

4" of more snow overnight. But now it's in the 40s. All I needed to melt the ice off our parking area was a day or two when it's sunny and 40. So of course nature puts 4" of snow on it first.

SO glad I bought a self-propelled snow blower!!!!

 

So when Boston (and pretty much all the north east) temps shoot up overnight and all the snow melts at once will flooding be a factor? I'm just wondering.

 

We had about an eighth of an inch of freezing rain two nights ago. So the county decided to salt the roads. They put down so much salt that the next day the roads were slipperier than they were when it was freezing rain.

 

It will take weeks for it to all melt, unless we get some extraordinarily warm weather (like in the 80s) for a few days in a row. It can cause flooding, but mostly due to ice blocking up storm drains. I live on a hill, though, so the flood is a problem for my down slope neighbors.

 

Nope. 60s and sunny here. Wore a short sleeve jersey and a windbreaker (which I took off for most of the day) yesterday.



As usual, West Coast BEST Coast.

 

Warm here, too. Almost 40, so shirt sleeves for me, too!
