Is it cold where you live?
 
It's colder than a witch's tit here in Korntucky. :D

Skippy 11-30-2011 01:14 PM

In the 30's at the moment here. The weather guessers are predicting 15 for Saturday. I'm starting to wish the Houston dweller who bought my car new had shelled out the extra 15 bucks for a block heater.

It's cold out there every day. What is this, Miami Beach?

It is a sad sad story but I managed to buy bubbles after his mistress died - and the other day I left him out for little too long...

Did his balls freeze to the porch? I hate when that happens. :D

Is so. :rolleyes:

We had a cold spell for a couple days last week, and then out of nowhere, it's in the 50's again.

I ain't complaining; means I can work in the daylight without a coat for a little while longer :D

I hate working in anything other than T-Shirts and old fatigues.

BobK 11-30-2011 02:51 PM

CLK is correct, it is cold in KY. Maybe not as OMG freakin' cold like the example posted, but cold. Came out of practice last night to see a very wet snow coming down hard. Hate to see that as we have a bunch of inexperienced drivers on the squad.
Our football team is in the state championship Friday in Bowling Green. Supposed to be in the 50's. Hope so, I hate when we play in the bloody cold.

Our team, the Garrard County Lions almost made it to the finals. :D

26 this morning, 66 now. Cold enough but there's a storm coming. After it chugs thru in a couple of days the temps will drop.

t walgamuth 11-30-2011 07:06 PM

We got our first snowfall of the year that stuck.....about 6" of very wet stuff on a warm earth. It mostly melted overnight even though air temp was below freezing.

Brrrrrrrrhhhhhh!!!!!!

You forgot the "in a brass bra" part.

I would quote the one about it being colder than a well digger's posterior, but then someone would ask me how I know that...:eek:

Is it cold in your home town? :eek:

engatwork 11-30-2011 07:34 PM

From CI's post 6.5dF feels like 5dF:dizzy:,

Wonder who can tell?

It is supposed to be in the upper twenties tonight here. I've still got some pipes to wrap:rolleyes:.

E150GT 11-30-2011 07:37 PM

It was about 40* F this morning but it was 66* today. I couldnt make it living in a place where nipples freeze. I have the heater on in the car when its 60 outside

Yep - my girlfriend nearly froze her rear off digging that well.:D

Upper twenties here the past few mornings. Four year old battery in that Jeep diesel is starting to show it's age, noticeably slower cranking, but still fires right up with those ceramic glow plugs. Might be time to pop for one of those Sears Platinum P-1 AGM's - supposedly made by the same group that originally made the Optima, before Johnson Controls bought them out and turned it into a overpriced POS. Word in the Jeep CRD community is that Platinum battery is just what this diesel needs, Group 34 with nearly 900 CCA, literally blasts that engine to life.

Can't Know 11-30-2011 07:51 PM

It is certainly not cold by the usual definition, but with our humidity, when the breeze blows in off the ocean in the winter it is pretty bone-chilling. Low forties feels about how the mid-20s did when I lived in Colorado, and that includes the breeze-chill factor.

Something about damp cold is far worse.

barry123400 11-30-2011 10:22 PM

We needed some heat on here off and on for the two pasts weeks. This week so far is pretty warm or at least not requiring heat until sometime late tomorrow. When it is going to start to cool off again.

For some strange reason in the last few years the average weather is colder and far worse snow wise further south down the eastern seaboard of the states. We have gotten almost no snow in comparison.

We used to experience one really cold week through the winter as well. Perhaps averaging -10F or -15F .. That oddly seems to have gone away as well for the last few years and you could usually depend on it. .

During that week temperatures going down to -25 for a few nights was not uncommon either. I do not expect the current winter weather pattern especially temperature wise to persist for many more years. Just enjoy it while it does.

If the increased spring/summer rains were to become permanent the agricultural situation would have to change here as well.

Perhaps +65F was the high out today. Correspondingly the summer does not seem to be as warm anymore with seemingly more than average rainfall . One wet snowfall last week so far this winter that also melted away quickly. Fairly heavy rain today.

Local price of furnace oil is over a thousand dollars for 200 gallons so moderate weather will thankfully save some money for people that do burn oil. We burn four cords plus a little of wood in a furnace to heat about two thousand square feet for the average winter.

A small percentage of locals have central air conditioning as well. Although in my opinion there is never a night too hot to get a decent nights sleep in the summer here so it is questionable.

Since most cars we aquire have factory air conditioning. Even it is of use only a handful of days as well per year for us.

Here in North Texas we're having some of the nicest weather of the year. The drought was hell and we've not gotten a LITTLE rain. Was a BEAUTIFUL day yesterday, low about 35, high probably about 60, calm winds. I went out and flew my butt off! It was a great weather day.

engatwork 12-01-2011 08:08 AM

Thankfully, I've still got running water in the house:).
