View Full Version : I am dissapointed that it isn't colder this weekend
Nothing like a refreshing walk/hike when it is cold enough for ice dingleberries on the beard.
Negative 19 here this morning.
Meh. Once it dips below zero it kind of just feels the same regardless of the number.

I can tolerate the cold better than the heat but -27? wind chill this morning was plenty.
I easily get beardcicles at 0? , don't need any colder for that.

I always hope the cold will make the foreign invaders and coastal transplants leave...but... no such luck.
negative 20 here this morning and 10mph wind equals negative 40 wind chill.
its negative 16 right now, but super sunny so it looks nice.

We thought 14 yesterday morning was bad, not missing CO at all this time of year. Our friends in NW Ioway were in that same negative temp w/out the wind.

Got to go hang out near Grover last night for work.
Showed up to -5, with a wind chill of -25. Blowing snow and HWY 14 closed.

Thermometer says -8 here in wellington.
I spy a -6 right now and and I think that temp sensor is reading a bit high.
The basement wall sensor is a toasty 64. Makes playing with the computer
a bit less fun.
I have the spot heater going on full blast and the temp is slowly rising.
Looks like the cold did zap most of my outdoor sensors....

Finally ticked to +1? a few minutes ago.
A heat wave I tell ya.
The GSD seems disappointed with the warm up, been trying to burrow under the snow I pushed off the deck and sidewalk.
If you're unarmed, you are a victim.
High of 76? and a low of 62? here today.
Lowest I saw, this week, was 11˚. Even saw a little snow. [snow]
We had a low of -6 F this morning. I cleared the walks and driveway of 8" of snow yesterday, then we woke to another 9".

Gonna whack us tonight before cold front moves away in the morning. Minus 31? chill factor right now here.
Still been a pretty mild fall/winter so far.

-20? with -36? chill factor now. Evening firewood fetch pretty much sucked.
Took the minions bubble kit outside for Reba dog earlier, the bubbles froze instantly and she loved trying to bite them before they shattered.

Just now it's -24 at highway 119 and airport road just south of longmont. This is getting kind of silly.

The only one enjoying it seems to be the GSD that thinks she is a Husky.

had the spot heater on in the room all day - and I noticed the temp was by the basement computer at 64 again- I kicked that pig up a notch for the last hour and at least it feels much better. I guess setting 2 feet away does have that sort of impact on a heater that spins the electrical meter like a top.
I figure about -8 right now; so quite warmer than a lot of you folks are having.

Looks like hit the low for today about 6am, -26? temp with -45? chill factor. Easily lowest temps we have seen in our 23 years out here on the prairie.
