How cold is it where you are?

[chocolatepuppy]

Chocolatepuppy, although it's snowing lightly in Butler, Pa, it's 9 degrees ABOVE zero with a high of 15, a minor heatwave compared to yesterday!

David, we're gonna have a heat wave this weekend, up into the low 20's. Then back to severe cold again.

It is currently 12F here, but predicted to go down to -5F to 8 above tonight!

[chocolatepuppy]

Already -5* at 9:30pm.

It's a good day. 21F, not too windy and bright sunshine. i'd have gone to the car wash but it is supposed to snow tomorrow and Wednesday. I'd take more days like this.

How are you Canadian folks making out with all this?

It's been miserable around here (southeast Michigan) as far as I'm concerned, but you guys are SO much farther north. How are you doing? (Or is this just, ho hum, another cold snowy winter, and you Yanks are SUCH wimps!)

This has been the coldest winter for most of Canada in some time. Locally we had bad wind chills in November - last year just a couple of days in December. The wind chills lately are lasting at least a week.

This morning in Cochrane, AB is was -33 C at 8 am; the wind chill made it -43C. That's -27.4 F and -45.4 respectively.

At 9:30 am it warmed up to a balmy -30 C with the chill of -40 C. That's - 22F and - 40F. (Numbers are the same at - 40).

But it's nice and sunny out!

We are having a cold wave here. 14 F two nights in a row. Ridiculous. And the school system is getting weird about it anymore. I guess they aren't worried about children that do not have cold weather gear waiting out at bus stops.

-4*F with wind chill, feels like -18*

[cassiesmom]

In yesterday's paper the Chicago Sun-Times described the weather as "unyielding", which I think is a really good description of how this winter in Chicago has been. It's now -5F just past 7 AM.

"Feels like" -1F!

This past week the local news told about a crime spree where a guy had robbed a store, stole a car and fired at gun atn another car on the freeway in an apparent road rage incident.

I laughed and thought that was really a ROAD RAGE incident.

-------------------

Coming from California, we only 'rage' if the window of the car is down.

This guy must have been REALLY ANGRY if he rolled down the window of the car while it was about 10-15 degrees -and the wind blowing past at 55 miles an hour?

That's almost -61 degrees.

I don't think I could muster enough anger to pull that off?

The past two weeks it's been between 75 - 80 degrees. Everyone is going to the beach and wearing t-shirts and flip-flops. I LOVE IT HERE!
