Title: you guys in the north east......
Post by: blown1 on January 08 2018, 12:49:30 PM
are some tough  sumbitches!
the weather or what ever you call it, is not even in my vocabulary.

nowhere  does it say 'negative" degrees,  according to normal people.

seriously, no idea how you cope with  those miserable temps, and  all that white
shit  all over the ground,
hope your all safe and warm (kinda)

oh, it was 72 here yesterday, but only 55 today as rain is forecast.

I don't know if you count PA, but this is one of the coldest winters I remember in my 60 years. Add insult to injury, a battery fell off the shelf and I'm dealing with a broken foot.

90 minutes east of Toronto here. We've broken all kinds of cold records in the last 3 weeks.

We're almost in the Arctic tundra here in Ottawa.

Got about 8" of snow yesterday, some of the drifts were closer to 18" deep; plus the temp finally got up to 30*F (up from the -10*F constant we had for about 2-3 weeks) - it felt down-right balmy.  Freezing rain is due later this week...

You guys up there have the moxy. It will be in the sixties this after noon and they are calling for seventies tomorrow afternoon before another "cold front" comes this weekend. Gotta water and bring the plants back in before that.

When I was young...winter was great. Now it absolutely sucks.

It was 32*F today... I left work in shorts and a t-shirt; and I was fine until I got a splash of slush up my leg, and the sun went behind the clouds, and the wind picked up... then I started running to the truck.

Seat heaters are standard issue up here.
