How cold is it by you?

Right now it’s 19° F, sunny and very pretty out. I’ll do some paperwork, then bundle up and go out and clear stuff.
Thinking popcorn and maybe a movie or two for the afternoon!

Stay safe and warm, everybody!

27* F at sunrise. 31* F At 9:00 AM.

@canidmajor I was going to bake my banana cake today but they’re still not ready. Maybe tomorrow.

And, if you have Prime, Touch is a lovely movie to watch.

6 degrees here. Brr.

@chyna Aren’t you glad you’re retired on a day like this?

^Absolutely!

It’s 17F here at 9:30 am. Living in the middle of the Lake Effect snow band, we got about a foot of snow last night. I’m glad I don’t have to go anywhere. I’ll fire up the snowblower a little later..

About 4 degrees. We got almost no snow this so-called “winter”.

@ragingloli That is 4* C right ?

@Tropical_Willie what else would it be?

Kelvin?

4F at 9am. Supposed to be -11 tomorrow night.

@canidmajor Kelvin does not have degrees.

I stand corrected on my loli specific joke.

I live somewhere where the overnight low is often around 70 degrees. It’s 75 now. Tropical weather is something else.

My parents report lows of 37 in the Bay Area, which is cold by California standards, but mild compared to what most of the country is experiencing.

Have to say that being able to walk (waddle?) like a penguin is very useful in ice and snow. I just got my car cleaned off enough to park it on a sunny street. There is a lot of ice around and I think we got about 3 or 4 inches of snow.

Currently -4 F with a windchill of -20 F at 10am. We have an extreme cold warning. Tonight it’s supposed to get down to -14 with windchills of – 25 to -35 F. We’re only supposed to get up to 2° today and 1° tomorrow. We’ll warm up to 21° Wednesday so the extreme cold won’t last too long.

Right now it is 39 F, 33 F with the wind chill. Supposed to go down into the 20’s at night and then they are forecasting snow tomorrow afternoon/evening/night. That is a panic situation down here. I haven’t looked but I can see people stripping the grocery store shelves for 1 day of snow.

14⁰ F and snowing.
I can’t go anywhere any more, but when I was working I’d get up, start warming the house, take a moment for myself, go start the minivan, which had no heat, wake up the kids and then the usual morning bustle.
Go check on the progress of the van, clean and scrape the windshield as best I could.
Go in and make sure the kids were bundled up for the chilly ride.
Get everyone to the car, make one more pass at the windshield, then we’re off.

One memorable morning, I stuck my head out the door….and immediately snatched it back in and yelled “School’s cancelled! Go back to bed!”
It was coooold. With the wind chill it was -50⁰.
Sheeit no!

^^ I loved snow days off from school. Even if it was for the kids!

In my case it was serious. It meant a whole day’s pay. :(

-14c here this morning.

Not very cold compared to the rest of the country. It’s dipping into the low 40’s at night. (California)

@janbb….this was the 90s. Getting word about closings took some time.
On this day I instantly called snowday whether it officially canceled or not! No way in hell was I taking the kids anywhere.

@Dutchess_III Ours was announced on the radio in those days.
