Temp Check

[kenny]

Earlier today it was hot here, 81 F.
It's finally cooled down to 78.

All the windows and doors are wide open and I'm in shorts, flip flops and a husband-beater.

We open the house when it's warm, and close it up around 4 PM when temps inside and outside match.
That way I don't pay a dime to heat the house overnight when the outside drops to a freezing 50-something.

Whatchugot?

Currently a balmy 11F
High of 14, low of 2. Which is a good bit warmer than yesterday's low of -6

 

[KaeKae]

Currently 16F. I think it was 8F this morning when the dog got me up.

I know water freezes at Zero F, but can you even feel the difference between 2 and -6?

Water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit. No, 0 and -6 are very much alike. Awful!!
I have 14F going down to 8 tonight. Quite jealous of your balmy weather.

@kenny I suppose one's skin might go numb just a tad sooner?

Opps, it's the wine. Yes 0C not 0F.

LOL

Chicago currently 14 and snowing. That’s up from earlier in the week when we had a high of 5.

I'm just glad PS doesn't have a 'Hate' button.

Enjoy your wine! I'm having hot chocolate in front of a fire in my hoodie footie. Haven't gone out all week. NY at its finest!

 

[stracci2000]

The high today was 60, I'm lovin it!

 

[kenny]

Mmmm.
I love NY ... in the spring or autumn.

If you come to LA don't forget to bring your itsy bitsy teenie weenie yellow polkadot bikini.

This video is the first time I've seen a man wear capri pants.
It has another shock, Dick Clark's 2017-carreer-ending comment about the sexiness of a very young girl at 0:14.
1959 was another world.
Hope Trump fails at bring it back.

HI:

-24 C. Environment Canada has an "extreme cold warning" for Southern AB. Excellent.

cheers--Sharon

How can 5 be a high?
Must be a typo.

I know Chicago gets cold.
Perhaps you meant 65?

kenny-

Why do you need wine if it's 78 degrees there? Surely you do not need to warm up?

Deb

It's 14 degrees or 16 degrees or whatever here. It bounces around. I go out every day. But tomorrow it's supposed to snow.

It's well-chilled chardonnay, Dahleeng.
I save the red for when it plummets down into the nippy 60s.

 

[monarch64]

It’s freezing here. A dog was found frozen solid on a porch in Toledo yesterday. I can’t even joke about it—we have a large transient population and folks could actually die out there. Not good. The high Monday will be 11, low of -5.

Just terrible, Monnie.

Trumpie’s usual cavalier insensitivity:


Barf!

I found this link on the unusually cold weather interesting...http://mashable.com/2017/12/29/record-cold-us-canada-coldest-new-years-eve/#MglxVjdSHZqj

[doberman]

It's a balmy 7° F here. So cold I didn't even walk the dog. And now all I'm thinking about is that poor other dog.

 

[Puppmom]

16F here. My dog asks to go out then walks away when I open the door and he feels the draft. Don’t blame him!

 

[ringo865]

Sunday's expected HIGH of -5 Fahrenheit

If you were confused about what I found interesting it was in this part, Sharon, in the discussion of how windows were breaking from the cold.
