Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

Global warming is bad news, eh?

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

Wow. We'll be at -1 tomorrow. I can't even imagine what -40 would be like. Time to store a yard gar in the car w/ a lighter & a sleeping bag in case the car gets stranded. :ss

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

The heck with the world, I would just like to have my hands warm after doing the snow again

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest

Lil dog is normally a pain. Gotta walk her 20-30 houses before she will.... well you know.

We go out a while ago... maybe 10 feet. She stops, goes, sprints for the door.

Its really cold in OH.

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

-20 right now here in southern MN. Will be a challenge to start the car in the morning as it's always colder at 5am. Tomorrow's forecast calling for a high of -5. Supposed to start warming up by Friday evening. Coldest I've seen here in many years. Glad I smoke inside this year.:)

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

looking at -15 around here tonight.

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

:tpd:

I'm sitting in the mini-mancave, huddled around my heater and finishing up my Joya de Nicaragua. It's 8F outside (windchill -2F) and about 45F here in the cave. :ss

As soon as I finish, I'm heading in for the night!!!

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

Yep, it's starting to get a little frosty out here as well. I guess it's time to break out the fur-lined nookie warmer :r

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

A current Balmy -22F (-30 C) in the beautiful Twin Cities, kids!!!!! Bundle up and go out to the bus stop, because the superintendents of the 2 major school districts wouldn't call school off on the coldest day in 5 years.


If my kid got frostbite today, and had to have something amputated, I would be sure to call the stump "Insert Superintendants name here."
The one in St. Paul that my wife works for is from Alabama... I am pretty sure she doesn't "get" it.

This chick is going to be busy today answering a ton of angry phone calls.

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

the cold will build character, its good to see not all places shut down.

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

Chilly here at +10.....not usual for Ark. Woke up to falling snow and its still coming down. Boy AWD and heated seats are nice. :)

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

only school in the city still open is mine I think

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

call in tell them it is to cold to get out of bed :r

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

Looking at 4*F and -10*F with the wind chill...glad I got a holiday today...LOL

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

Drove into work with a temp of -27F, radio said the wind chill was somewhere in the -45F to -50F range. Remote start = life saver!

Why would you want school canceled because of cold? As long as the furnace isn't total crap, I don't see the need.

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

someone call al gore....its global warming!:r

3 degrees this morning actual, blowing about 20 apperently windchill is close to -20 freaking brr. and its supposed to get colder!:lv

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

The kids standing out waiting for the bus, Too much liability there...specially those in the boonies

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

Still -5 here. Just the 7 minute walk to the academic buildings had me shivering.

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

Mine is of the federation

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

Is there really any difference in 0 and -15 or 20? Once you get down that low does it really matter?

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

:rolleyes: only someone from a warm weather state would ask.

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

Sorry guys, really, I live in AZ so I will write this chit when we are 115 degrees

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

WELL GIVE ME AN ANSWER!!! Mr. cold weather stater.:rolleyes:

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

go grab an ice cube then go grab some dry ice

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

Gotcha. No thanks.

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

you wouldn't think it makes a big difference and maybe being in it for a minute or two you wouldn't notice it but once it goes from -15 to 5 it will feel warmer :) (I hope this muddies things up) :r

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

I think if I lived in a climate like that I would be a raving alcoholic. I've got to be able to get outside and I just can't see wanting to be outside in that. I guess it's like anything else--you deal with it.

Hell, everybody wants to be here in the winter but when they're here in August-September they're crying about how hot and humid it is and saying no way I could live in this.

Re: Stay Warm, Midwest
 

-12 with a-29 windchill in Mayberry...:cb
