Temp Check

[kenny]

What's your outdoor temp now?
I think I'll put on a tank top, shorts, and flip flops and go for a walk with Bibi now.

Ours ...

 

[lyra]

0C

 

[Daisys and Diamonds]

Quite pleasent today

 

[jordyonbass]

83 right now, a welcome relief after working in 117 all day yesterday!

 

[sarahb]

Its 36* right now, and we've had quite a mild winter thus far. The plow guy has plowed the driveway only 3x this year. Usually, he's here 15x or so by the end of Jan, as we average 64" of snow per year.

I'm envious of everyone's warm temps, enjoy!

 

[marcy]

Feels like 2 degrees in Wyoming

 

[junebug17]

42 F in New Jersey. Can't complain, winter so far hasn't been too bad. And no snow. Although we still need to get through February lol. I like your weather a lot better kenny.

 

[facetgirl]

36 degrees with tomorrow looking like 42 and rainy.

I'm envious of you in warmer climates!

 

[JPie]

66. No complaints!

 

[MamaBee]

39 in Maryland

It is relatively mild here in NYC and has been for most of January (and December IIRC).

Today it is 41 degrees F at 9:35 AM.

 

[arkieb1]

91.4 in your measurement and about 95% humidity, which makes it exceedingly unpleasant.

 

[Arcadian]

Currently 70. will be about 76 for the high with thunderboomers. Tomorrow will be cooler at 69 degrees but should be nice and clear. Means that in Miami, about 2-5 degrees warmer than here (I'm 70 miles north of there)

 

[caf]

60F in Denver

 

[foxinsox]

26C (79F) already at 8.30am.. we’re heading to 34C (91F) today

 

[diamondringlover]

37 and spitting snow off and on...

 

[OboeGal]

36 F at just after midnight in southwestern Ohio. Was low-mid 40s during the day and should be mid 50s and windy tomorrow. We've had a really long stretch of gray days here lately, but I'm not complaining too much. Overall we've had a pretty mild winter, with only one mild snowfall requiring any shoveling and with a long stretch in Dec and Jan of mostly sunny days, which is VERY rare here for winter and early spring.

 

[Karl_K]

Shorts and t-shirt weather so that means it is above 20F
Last year was a very cold winter so far this one has not been bad.
I haven't even broke out the heavy coat yet so it has stayed above 0F and shorts and a light jacket are fine.

Americans are my favourite people







But i wish you would go metric

awww we alls luvs yas alls too
but no
just say no to metric.

At least you didn't give me the standard Fahrenheit being for countries who have been to the moon

Im must say im teting real hard not to complain about the heat when the big red sunburnt country next door is doing it so rough
and i complained about the cold durring the winter every single day

But i put on a few pounds not walking to work this year and the heat is getting to me
I'm thinking Tibby our stray cat we adopted and fed up is feeling the same way

 

[Trekkie]

Not too hot in my corner of Africa today: 27°C/80° American!

... just say no to metric.

Oh Glob, Karl.
Please tell me you're joking.

I so wish America would go metric.
It's much more simple and logical; it saves time and is far less prone to error.
I always use metric on home and work projects where I don't have to involve another friggin American.
Metric makes Americans flip out.

Why should ounce be a unit of BOTH weight and volume?
Metric has dedicated units, gram for weight, and liter for volume.
For distance one reference, meter, is used for all distance units, from the shortest unit to the longest.
No multiplying by 12 or 36, or 5280, etc.
Even the Celsius scale is simpler; it's based on the temp water freezes and the temp it boils, 0 to 100 degrees C.

Then all those asinine fraction units!
Which of the following two questions is more simple?
1. Which is larger, 14, 15, or 16 mm?
2. Which is larger 5/8", 11/16", or 3/4"?

Jimmy Carter tried, but Americans were too farging stupid/lazy to switch to the much-simpler metric system.

Post of the century Kenny

Ive worked in hardwear/ timber sales for most of my working life
Lots of things (because they come from America or are catering to your market) are not metric - it was always hard to get my head around !
Wood screws are the worst !

Yes, for woodworkers it is easier as well. They are always dividing things by 1/2 or quarters and it is a lot easier to divide mm than it is to divide fractions.

Of course it would be a challenge for this (my) old brain to start learning the metric system as I am set in my
ways and lazy. But for the greater good I agree metric is better.

Love you @Daisys and Diamonds...if we go Metric would you come here and teach it to me?

 

[missy]

37 degrees F right this moment.

That is 2.77778 degrees in C.
Sounds much colder that way.

 

[luv2sparkle]

We had to turn on the air conditioning yesterday. Our upstairs was reading 81 degrees. I am so not ready for that yet.

 

[Gussie]

It's a chamber day here in Houston, 67° F, 19° C, 292 K and low humidity. Happy Sunday!!

 

[Karl_K]

You see metric is the devils work...
no, you say well I will prove it...
Gas which makes my car go voom voom is sold by the gallon and that is good.
Milk which makes for good bones is sold by the gallon and that is good.
Water by which supports life is sold by the gallon and that is good.
Pop which is bad for ya is sold in liters and that is bad.
Well now you gonna say hey pop is also sold in 12oz cans and 16oz and 20oz bottles so that dont work.
Well those are the gateway ones to lure one into the dark side so you buy them evil 2 liters.
