This is where I officially apologize for whining about what I perceived to be debilitating low temps, with unmanageable snow and ice........you guys in the North are ROCK stars!

Thanks Lake Erie! They say it's on the edge of freezing a bit which will probably ease up on the lake-effect. It's going to be sub-zero here....it's 2 at the moment and wind chills are supposed to be in double-diget minus readings...for a couple of days.

Brrrrrrrr. it's been a chilly winter...they said it would be a bruiser.

Cathi, it's all relative... when you aren't used to it, it can be damned cold. I know this has been an unusual winter for you all, and I know it's a pain! Just glad I didn't move this season... the idea for us is to be in more constant temps, and escape the snow and cold winters.

I'm glad it's warmed up to normal temps for you. Seems once you get that initial chill, it seems to stay with you. I've been wearing an extra layer under my shirts (up to 4 layers now Huh

), and I'm staying warm. Lingering outside is not an option, though, ha ha.

I got off work today, and it was -5 F. I'll tell ya, before I got in the wind, it felt almost balmy! It's now -10 F, and will be -17F in the morning. Supposed to warm up to almost 30F on Saturday, though. Heatwave! Cheesy

Jimmers, great poem! And so true. Especially about your nose freezing shut. Wink

May I send it to my boss? With full credit attached.

You in the frozen tundra could move to California, ya know. I hear there is a mass exodus of folks moving outta there. No really there are. (not just me and Jim)

It is the state with the most people moving OUT. But the weather won't freeze yer nose hairs.

If you move to SoCal...you are within an hour of desert, moutains, ocean and big city life.

In a few months I will have a 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 2-car attached garage.... up for rent if anyone's interested. Wink

No snow blower necessary.

That's one investment I haven't made... I'll just hire Barry to clear my sidewalk and driveway. (Free beers Barry... plus hot chocolate! Wink

It is another frozen nose-hair-kinda morning here again! Shocked

Biking 365 days a year, hmmmmm, starting to sound pretty good! Wink

Joe, stop by an Outfitters Shop on the way to St. Louis and get yourself some long underwear, seriously! Wink

Linda, one of our friends we ride with is from California but he lives here now due to his work. He went back to CA for the X-Mas holidays and decided to drive the Trans Canada Highway from BC to Ontario, Blizzard conditions for most of his trip.
He arrived safe and sound yesterday but was bundled up like a Eskimo! Grin

The cold is starting to get here in NY now. -18F this morning. Of course school wasn't closed or delayed. Maybe it will hit -30F tomorrow. That is when cars that aren't plugged in can tend to refuse to start.

My daughters horse back riding lesson will probably be canceled tomorrow, they don't have lessons when it gets lower than 10F in the barn.

This weather is taking its toll on people and pets.

Found this article in our newspaper this morning and am still fuming mad. I can only hope that this poor dog was lost and not abandoned. Breaks my heart to know he suffered so badly. Cry

He looks a lot like my Dobie.

I called the animal hospital this morning and the vet tech reported that he is doing much better this morning, thank goodness.

Please, please be sure to take good care of your animals during this freezing weather. Just because they have fur does not mean they can all endure the cold temps.

The worlds temperature has been flat for a few years, and started dropping in 2008.

Temps here in NY have been at 0F for 3 days. This is not to bad, we have had morning temps as low as -30F before. I guess we are in the tropical zone.

Paul

Spot on, Paul! No punn intended.

If the current sunspot cycle lasts a couple of years people will be fighting for food instead of oil. Few realize that the stockpile of food in the world only could last a few months.

Perhasps the politicians can legislate and pass laws preventing the sun from withholding it's spots. LOL
