Where else is it stupid cold right now?
« on: January 02, 2018, 04:18:53 PM »
Ohio is just stupid cold right now.  -20 tonight with the windchill factor.  My little is still on academic break and if my car won't start tomorrow, I guess I have to stay at home and practice a few more lines of calligraphy  ;D

Well, it's not as cold here in Atlanta as it is where you are, but this morning it was 15 degrees, which is 19 degrees below normal for the date. Good weather for hot tea and writing letters.

We had a bit of a break in the cold in Toronto today; it was only -8 degC or so. Quite enjoyable when out for a walk, but cold snap is to return Friday. New Year's Eve  was the coldest its been in over 100 years. Outdoor celebrations were shortened considerably, which was met with opinions from both sides of the happiness spectrum. But, the sunrise was a stunner!

Ohhhh... NO.  I cannot even imagine what -20 feels like.  Stay warm, all of you!

We are the same up over here in Brockville, Ontario. Yesterday morning it was -30C. This morning it warmed up to -8C, but it is snowing like bejeezers.

Stay warm everyone.

Yeah, it's 12 F or -11C here in North Carolina. Next Tuesday is supposed to get up to 53, though (11C). Go figure.

Today it warmed up to 16 F here in Illinois and I actually was able to walk the dog after two weeks of the polar vortex below 0 F wind chills. Her poor paws and my cheeks can't handle under 15 F.

And now we got an inch of snow. In Michigan, where I lived before, it would be nothing. Here in North Carolina, it's shut down the whole city. Working from home is not too bad. I think it may be a french toast and cocoa morning after my 9:00 meeting call.  :)

It’s -18C here in Nashua, NH. Been really really cold since the storm. And the wind is just crazy.

Well it dropped back downto -31C here in Brockville again.
on the upside,  it is a beautifu, yet crisp sunny morning. The air is incredibly clear.
