The "Holy %$%# It's Cold Out There" Winter 2017 Thread

No. No, it doesn't feel "great." I get sick of temps roller coastering like that. For most of you that's the difference between -10 and 35 F, but for us it's between 35 and 80 F. Pick a temperature, for goodness sake. Stick with it.

Play some CK2, Commander.  It'll help.

Maybe in Iceland! -- for teh lulz.  >:D

Oh yes...something else I don't miss about living in Houston   :dreamer:

Monday evening : -2 C (28.4 F)  with no wind.
Tuesday evening : -22 C (-7.6 F) with wind that makes it feel like -36 C (-32.8 F)

I'm already on cold number 2 in the last month. These massive temperature shifts can piss off any time now.

Now that it has warmed up a bit, I expect illness to run rampant.

Can't wait.

-13C right now... rising to -4C by 5 pm with freezing rain starting... rising to 1C by 9pm and changing to just plain rain.

The rain will continue and the temperature will continue to rise until about 11am Friday, 11C. Then temp starts to drop and the rain changes to snow about 4pm on Friday, 0C.

The snow will continue all day Sat as the temperature continues to drop until Sunday when we see the sun again and the temperature is about -15C.

When it's all done we should have had about 1" of rain and 14" of snow.... in 4 days...

70 Degrees here. But it's a 'wet' warmth so..... And there's Fog too. We're all suffering alike aren't we. Aren't we?  :hug:

Yes the pool is open for swimming, surfing, lounging, and sunbathing-- dress appropriate. And I need somebody that can swim well to go down to the bottom and retrieve those pair of shorts left there after the New Years Party. Any takers?

[OJsDad]

Do those shorts belong to you or Lady Slash

[Arctic Blast]

Can't wait.

Oh, it's coming your way. As is this cold snap! Feels like -35 today! Get excited for it.  ;D
