Fragile Bird Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 So much rain. On the bright side, if that was snow it would be a helluva lot of shoveling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorral Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 It's OK. Our Mayor has decided the city no longer needs to think about massive snowfalls and is cancelling the budgets that deal with it. BTW the last time the city had a massive snowfall he got the hella out of dodge and went to the Virgin Islands, while the city choked. I wasn't here for it, being elsewhere. (Why the hell is is east coast politicos including the Bidens think the Virgin Islands are where to go in winter -- it's not even the Caribbean geographically speaking -- but speaking, o ya, English is spoken there, so there ya go.)

A Horse Named Stranger Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Snow. Effing snow. Ty, when I said, I wanted snow fr my birthday, I meant cocaine, not actual snow. You and bloody weather controlling space laser. Well, you have till monday to fix that and deliver the coke (don't you dare to show with a bottle of coke zero or something).

Corvinus85 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 90% of the time I like winter and prefer it to the hot, humid summer season. But that other 10%... WHEN WILL IT END??? Jace, Extat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tears of Lys Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Since I LOVE to cross-country ski, I wouldn't mind snow around here, but we've been getting nothing but flurries that don't stick, rain, rain, more rain, and now sleet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tears of Lys Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 We definitely have snow now! Downside is that it's freakin' zero out. When my cross-country skis come, I'll have to bundle up so heavily that my snow angels will look like crop circles.

No snow really in Minny, but it's fucking cold as shit. I wanted to work on my car a bit, but I'm not even taking out the garbage and recycling in this.

Ser Scot A Ellison Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 It’s snowing everywhere… but here. I swear Chicago should pay 2% of their snowplow/salt budget to live their and they’d make a killing. It takes a couple of years but it stops snowing where ever I live… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tears of Lys Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 @Mr. Chatywin et al. Since the nearest hill (ha!) is hours away from me in this vast flatland of Michigan, I settle for cross-country. Besides, all my loved ones are afraid that I'll shoot my eye out, or something like that, if I go back to downhill at my advanced years. Pooh!

TormundsWoman Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 It’s lovely. I love the Artic winds, the sub zero F degrees and no sun winter day. I’m not a pussy. Florida can keep their sunny beaches and warm breezes! Whatever. DireWolfSpirit, Corvinus85 and Ser Scot A Ellison 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got to -18°F with a windchill of -30 to -40 on Saturday. I've been keeping my sinks dripping just in case and running the heater at higher than usual temp to make sure stuff that shouldn't freeze won't. My gas/electric bill will be something this month. And I've had some hefty snow drifts to deal with in the driveway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fragile Bird Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Parts of the North West Territories are seeing -49 today, which is -56.2 F, and with the wind chill it’s -57, or -70 F. Edmonton, Alberta saw -43 at the airport, -45 F (-50 is the crossing point for C and F), -53 with the wind chill (-63 F). A lot of flights got cancelled, the equipment was too cold to run.

All my friends and family from AZ to TX, from CO, NE, to ND to IL are way colder than I am. And I too am below freezing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
