It is a balmy 5 degrees (Fahrenheit, that's -15 for Celsius) outside not counting wind chill, and it's always windy here.


I think my toes are frozen together.
Rousseau
It's a beautiful, sunny day here, with a gentle sea breeze, and about 15 ° C.

Yay !!

Curse your temperate climate.

Brrrrr Cold here. All the way into the upper 20's!


Coldest temperature I ever lived through was two nights in a row it dropped to 50 below in Montana.
30 and 40 below several times each winter was routine.

I recall one night it was 20 below and the wind was blowing about 40 miles an hour. Damn that was cold.
I actually slept that night with all my clothes on.



Lookin forward to summer again when I only have to wear one layer of clothes.

Coldest day I've ever lived through was up near Utah State University about an hour or so north of Salt Lake City, it was -11 at 2 in the afternoon.
seuss
just got done snowing here for 36 hours straight... I'm so happy i moved back here from AZ! (not)

by the way, isn't there a commandment about taking the holy baked good's name in vain?

and I usually don't think of muffins in the same phrase as cold...

Hey, when you don't use profanities you come up with some weird curses.

Backin Montana when the temps got up into the 10's, ya knew it was fixin to snow.
Always had to warm up some first to snow.

Holy muffins? What the hell is the matter with you? Who talks like that?

Anyway, it is about 40 degrees here, which i am guessing is about 5 degrees Celsius , in northern illinois.

I say a lot of weird things instead of swearing.

Here are some examples that I have said in the past week.

"Son's and Daughters"

"Cripey"

"Oh biscuits"

"Good Gilgamesh"

"Heavens to Betsy"

I am sympathetic to your cold climate. Cold here, too. Damned near 60 degree's. laugh.gif

What is the wind like in your parts? I go to school in an area that is totally surrounded by farms, so there is no protection from the wind. It was in the 20's last night when i was driving home but the wind was torturous. Plus, trying to drive on narrow, crowded roads while snow drifts across isn't fun. There is a second or two where you just flat out can't see. Fortuity is doesn't happen too often and it should start warming up around here soon.

We get some nasty winds coming off down the mountains. Lat week was gusts up to 40mph.
Boot
In fact there is an old joke that when the pioneers first came to this area of Utah they said "we'll move on when the wind stops" and so we are still here.

That's cold enough that when you go outside you can feel all the stuff in your nose freeze.

Still raining here.
