5" of snow overnight friday into saturday, 56° late this morning, down into the teens tonight. Not sure what's going on!!!
 
33F now, and going to be 27F when I go to work in the morning. In SE Texas not far from the Gulf of Mexico, that's just nuts! Don't let ice form on the roads...folks here forget how to drive...or should I say never really learned to. Time to bundle up buttercup!
 
-8F outside right now.

Same here...not much wind so it's not as bad as it could be. I was pumping gas this morning and the coupling attaching the hose to the trigger thing was dripping a lot...I was waiting for that to start spraying all over the place. I don't know if it was the cold or just a coincidence.
 
Down here in Hot Springs Ar. 15 and feels like 6, now that is cold for these people down here, being from Minn. it is like a spring day with a light coat on.
 
Dropped below 20F this weekend - buddy of mine from CO pronounced that made it time to break out the hoodie, much to the annoyance of all the bundled-up locals.

I really don't know what's cold. Below 55F and I'm already cursing.
I also complain when it's above 70F.
I think alot of it has to do with my not turning on the heat or AC at home.
 
I realized that besides the wind chill factor, there is an added drop in temperature when you've pissed your wife off. I was afraid to come home on lunch break after I sent her to pick me up from the car dealership when I was supposed to drop my car off. She showed up before me. They recognized my wife and asked if I was dropping the car off a day early. She mentioned that I told her the appointment was today. She was quite angry with me but I told her how lucky I was I didn't make the trip for nothing
 
on Sunday morning 18 Dec 2016, my 2nd floor apt digital thermometer read -18.7F for an outside low (sensor on balcony railing in relatively open air). The Auto thermometer read -19F. Yes, the Auto started just fine - synthetic oil. not much wind.

oops, a senior moment: no location given. The thermometer was located off I94 in Western Wisconsin. Time was 0700.

Crazy weather!

😱 Spring like day!!!

By 4AM it is suppose to be 30F WITH SNOW STARTING AND ACCUMULATING FROM 8" TO 12" W/ 20MPH WINDS W/ GUSTS OVER 30MPH!

NOT THAT COLD JUST A DRASTIC CHANGE IN TEMPERATURE AND WEATHER IN 12 HOURS!


CAPO WILL BE HAPPY,,WE HAVE NOT HAD THAT MUCH SNOW THIS YEAR!

Depressing winter. Even if it does snow, the warm stuff comes right back and turns everything into an ugly brown muddy mess. Might as well just get on with it at this point. Last winter sucked too. Just depressing 🙁

I agree,you are even further north than I am! Friday is going to be seasonal,,32F, THEN 45f ON Saturday and 53F on Sunday,,,it will be a wet snow tomorrow and with the weekend temps it will be gone by Monday!🙁
 
Thanks,,,what is the temp across the pond?!.......49F/9C?



Apologies! missed this Roberto, its been around that in the day, maybe 2-4oC through the night. However a cold blast is on its way tonight, so -2oC and into the weekend............
 
Up in the viking territory (68° north). it's swinging from -20C to +5C. Today it was +5C, storm, and rain. One day it's so cold the nostral hairs hurts when breathing. The next day almost summer tempratures, with pure ice + water on top on the roads. Lots of traffic accidents, mostly by foreigner truckdrivers from summer land, with summer tires... bambi on ice is blocking the roads today. Terrible driving conditions.

I miss summer....Last years summer was great, i remember that day, it was a great day 🙂
 
Our coldest weather may not be as severe as the Midwest. Upper Midwest, Plain states, upper North East [New England] ect. It still can get cold. Starting tonight and for the next 48 hours, the Chill factor will be b/w Minus 10F and Minus 20F. Right now it is 2F chill factor. It will NOT stop CAPO and I from hitting the trail 2X/day!

The Pocono Mts. are 2 hours Noth of me. It can be 10F to 20F colder up there. the other night it was 6F here and -11F in the Poconos without the chill factor.

We are on the western edge of the blizzard. we are getting around 6" of snow. It is the wind and bitter cold that follows that will be refreshing and welcoming for me and CAPO!😀
