I work with a bunch of people in Houston and Midland, TX. They were all out of sorts about the the weather forecast. The rest of us are in Colorado or Casper, WY and we just laughed at them.

That said, I've been in Midland during winter weather and it's a different beast because the ice is much worse and no one knows how to handle it. We had to drive to El Paso to catch flights home because that was the nearest airport still open.

I was working in the Pecos/Fort Stockton area about 10 years ago when it didn't get above 11 degrees for 3 days- everything froze.

Wind chill is made up sensationalistic nonsense.

It a supposed calculation of how cold it "feels" to exposed skin.

Feels to whom? Enos the Eskimo is going to feel differently in a cool breeze than Jose from Guatemala.

Neither is going to walk around naked in subzero weather.

My thermometer currently shows -4. That's impressively cold for Denver without the "feels like" hype.

That's not really what wind chill is, but OK

We had multiple warehouses not plug their delivery trucks in last night. They were dumbfounded about why their trucks wouldn't start this morning. SMH.

I think I would be having serious discussions with their supervisory staff.
No excuse for that kind of crap

Got the unpowered animal sheds covered pretty decent. Side by side "rooms", chicken water isn't freezing. Donkey/goats is. Not sure if just smaller pan I had for them vs actually getting more breeze in there. Been giving hot mash and offering warm water every 6 hours or so. Hope one last round at 10pm works thru 1am, but think temp is supposed to stay stable at like 2-4degree's. Not quite the warm winter I was hoping for out here. (Fine if I was still in CO streets just work commuting, here little trickier with old farm house of questionable insulation, and taking care of animals, and road crews that have more limited capabilities. My work was actually shutdown, waiting to see what they do tommorow as I'd think conditions near the same.

I stopped at King Soopers yesterday on the way home from work. Some chick in yoga pants, zip hoodie and crocs said ?I didn?t think it was going to get this cold?.
Dumbass
And then there was an older guy in sweatshirt, shorts and flip flops leaving and makes the astute observation ?It got cold?.
Dumbass

What ?

Miss you being local Bert…..

Merry Humbug.

Oh, for sure.

The branch I manage didn't have the same problem. Weird..

Need to borrow a chain saw to cut down some palm trees to burn?

There are plenty of trees on the ground here

Truckloads of bucked firewood curing now
