bitterly COLD in Pittsburgh!

[davidpizzica]

The temperature right now is 12 degrees here in Pittsburgh with a westerly wind blowing in at 22 mph with gusts up to 40 mph! This makes the wind chill -8 degrees. No snow yet, but it's dangerously cold to be out in it. This is from the "You got to be kidding" department: I stopped at a gas station tonight to get somethin to eat when in walks a guy wearing SHORTS!! I looked at him and thought "Man, you got to be freezing!" Tomorrow the COLD continues.

It was -9 earlier today, no idea if there was a windchill. I typicaly wear shorts under my insulated carharts in the winter.

Same here in Ohio. The wind is wicked and my heart goes out to all the homeless animals. My one son works for a nursery and people came to purchase their Christmas trees. The poor kid was so tired and cold. I made him some homemade lasagna that his girlfriend picked up.

We are supposed to get the wind and bitter windchills tonight, but I'm not gonna go out and check! We have had three days of snow, like one of my favorite old Christmas carols:

Snow has fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter, long long ago.
