I saw the weather on tv. for all you guys that are up north of me. It's on the National news how cold & snowy it is up there! I feel for you all, as I remember when it was like that here, only we had freezing rain that brought tree limbs down, then the power lines!

I hope you all keep safe & warm with your cold & snow & hopefully no freezing rain!

It made it to -12 and -32 with windchill. The water to the stable froze including the heated automatic water tank. There are 8horses that drink around 10-15gallons each in a 24hour period. I've been hauling water from the house nearly constantly since Sunday. I think the muscles in my right arm have quit working. I can't even close my hand into a fist. Tomorrow I have aikido so I doubt I'll be able to move by tomorrow night.

our low last night was 25C high today of about 45C. Gets very old after a while. Id love to experience -30F temps, if only for a little while. Its been on our news briefly, looks...... refreshing.

Matt

yes, nose hairs freezing together is quite refreshing!

Well, that's a new look at it Doedogg! I don't believe I remember experiencing that.

Sham- You better quit using that right arm & let it rest or you might end up with something similar to what I had. I wouldn't wish that on anybody!

33f where I am, Franklin TN, just south of Nashville.

I just went from 0F/-17C to 84F/29C

And as I knew would happen, just missed snow on the evening I left the states for good
Never ever to see snow again

^_^

pfft...

i said that about denver. now i'll be moving there.

Just getting a little snow tonight, right now (10:15pm) central, its 9F/-12C. Surprisingly warm compared to the last few nights of -13F/-25C.

Never ever to see snow again

We have snow here....

Just not so much, nor so often

I was in SW MI from Sat to Tues...Mon & Tues it was -4, windchill was crazy, schools were closed. Not much snow on the ground in the area where I was.

Back here in MD it's a balmy 18 right now Yesterday we had maybe an inch or so of snow and the schools closed

There is water at the bottom of the ocean

Heat wave!! 14f

Well, I'm in the high 70's low 80's this week. Just 'cause it's the 'States doesn't = snow. Our low so far has been 35f. You would have thought it was a blizzard out there.

I've lived where it's cold for a long time (Oklahoma...lol) I'll have to pass. I like the weather down here except for May, June, July, August, and most of Spetember. It's time to start planting the garden down here. My grapefruit tree should start blooming soon. /:'

My boyfriend is from Georgia. He'd never seen more than 1" of snow and then he got here and by the end of winter we measure the stuff in feet. He decided to go out without socks on, followed me over a snow drift to cut across the yard to the vehicle, and all of a sudden he's hopping around in circles grabbing his ankle and yelling something about cold. My sister and I about fell down laughing. Yes snow is cold when it touches bare skin that's why you wear socks with your shoes and avoid stepping in the deep spots.

fish patty you probably did a tendon injury. Those hurt alot and can take weeks to heal. All I think I've damaged is muscle and muscles heal fast when you stop beating them up for awhile. Although after hauling all that water I found my knee was kinda weak when doing aikido last night. Injured joints heal worse than tendons.

supposedly its 13+ and snowing (I can see the snowing part)

Its definitely not the worst winter I've ever seen but I still wonder what I'm doing here! French Polynesia is looking good ATM!

* the worst winter was in the early 90s..it never got above 0 for a month, -20 was a good DAY, and -35 was the coldest night.

Sham!
I try to make sure I really bundle up when I'm out in the snow, cause the camera is usually with me. I have this disturbing habit of not paying attention to anything except what I'm shooting. I only come in when I cant bend my finger enough to get the trigger to fire.
This is a bad habit to have I know, and I'm going to have to break it once I have a housing for my camera. Not paying attention to your surroundings is not good when your under 100' of water .

Doe I remember a winter like that, musta been '95 was the year we got 4' of snow all at once, school was closed for a week and we had temps in the -30's .


Sunny and a bit on the warm side, but there's a nice breeze so it's fairly good in the shade.

^_^

sham- Now that your boyfriend knows the basics about snow............ I hope you taught him how to wear shoes & socks & go water your horses for you so you can heal up.

If you haven't done it yet, you could reward him with some snow ice cream.
The kids around here really like it, but I never took to it.

Reading all these posts about cold & snow is just making me colder. Sounds like Babelfish has it made in the shade though!

My lord, it's 85 deg F here today!!!

Severe weather warning and I took my volunteering off and my exam tomorrow is postponed! I'll still probably have two classes, but it's the most of a snow day I've ever had!

Just starting to snow here too... they are calling for 2ft by the time it is all over. Who knows if we will actually get that much or if that prediction changed since the last time we watched the weather.

Hi Winter. . .

we ended up getting 6 inches of snow where i'm at south of detroit, with a few snow drifts of about 4 ft.

Supposedly we got 6" but the sun is shining and it's 29F outside so it really doesn't look any different than a few days ago. Aside from the extra vehicles in the ditch. There's a semi facing south west on the right side of the east bound lanes on interstate. I'm not sure I want to know all the details of how it got there.

30+ inches here and the temp is a whopping -4.
