Dang it got COLD

[rarefish383]

There is an old Norwegian saying. "There is no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothes". All my clothes are bad. Not really that bad. Last I checked it was 19* with 30-40 mph wind gusts. Wearing sweat pants, T shirt, insulated flannel shirt, ball cap and gloves. Was actually working up a sweat splitting wood. Only thing that got cold was cheeks, nose and ears. Skin exposed to the wind. If it wasn't so windy it would be a nice day for splitting. I don't think I would want to be working with Valley Firewood today! But, I guess if I was, I'd be wearing more than a T shirt and flannel. Talked to a guy in San Antonio yesterday. He said they had a frost. What's it like in your neighborhood? Joe.

The Norwegian side of me used to like cold weather, -11 would be OK. The Irish side of me likes cold Guinness, by the fire, that's OK too, Joe.

Burned a cord since Thanksgiving. Thermometer reads -17F currently. Gonna have to brrring another over from the stockpile to the house this weekend.

Thermometer said 3 deg F this morning here. The way I judge cold is if the snot freezes in my nose, it's cold. I know you guys up north probably have a different definition, but it doesn't get into single digits here very often.

-2 when I left for work. Not going to mention anything about windchill! Supposed to go work on a well later today, but thinking that they'll have to do without water for a couple more days. Supposed to warm up Saturday into the 20's and snow!

@ 7:30 it was -15* and -7* now with a -17* wind chill... good day to set next to the wood stove and sort ice fishing jigs & lure's... stay warm!

Cold *for me* here in Georgia, low 20s this morning, mid 30s now. The wind is wicked, makes it seem colder. Got all my work done earlier, so now enjoying inside by the fire. I'll go out and split some later this afternoon when it is warmer.

Ya, I know not up north cold, just what you get used to.

Warmed up here. 6* this morning. Early this week the highs were below zero. 6* is darn nice compared to -15*

 

[dave_dj1]

It's about 14 f here at the moment. It's supposed to drop to below zero over night. The good news is it's supposed to warm back up on Saturday and snow.

This winter weather hit us hard. -10 isn't that cold but when it was 40 above the week before it takes some getting used to!

We had a real nice fall around here Nov was nice and even a couple weeks ago it was still in the 40's. Then front went threw and we got 5 or 6 inches of snow. In a few days it warmed up and it was gone. Then it cooled off and has been cold every since. Weather man says Sunday morning will be 9 below zero with 20 to 30 below 0 wind chill. We kept feeding the Garn and try to keep inside as much a possible.

Minus 30 here now, which is infinitely warmer than the minus 40 we've had for the last few days.

6* here right now. Got 4" of snow on Wednesday, rained all day yesterday, so the mud is a little stiff this morning.
