Bundle up everyone!
My fingertips still don't have all the feeling back after freezing them in my gloves, shovelling the sidewalks after work today (3 hours ago!). It has been snowing every single day!


Lindsey, wear mittens when shoveling! Really makes a huge difference.. get a nice thick pair, you will never have frosted fingers again!

Cold here too.. brrrrr
Went out for dinner with a few friends and coming home it was -17 degrees.
School cancelled for tomorrow. I am leaving my water on all night... I don't ever remember it being this cold. Not a good time for busted pipes!

No school today either!!! Temp this morning is -12 with a wind chill of -27...brrrrrrr. I have to go get my hair cut at 9:30, so I'm definitely warming up the van....I don't care how much gas costs....lol

It's 41 deg here this morning, wind chill has it at 31. I hope it warms up soon. We have all the patio plants in the house right now. The actual temperature was down to 31 Tuesday night, and just don't want the plants to freeze. Some of them are left over from Melissa's wedding and we're keeping them for her until she gets a larger place (her little balcony looked like a jungle and when she brought all of them in their apartment was full). It's such a bother this time of year bringing the plants in, putting them out, then in a again. But, I'd much rather deal with this than the temperatures that some of you are, and moving plants is much easier than shoveling snow!!!!

Yes, I do have a nice thick pair of mittens, but Layla likes to eat them because they're fuzzy :rolleyes: Anyways, I cleaned out my closet and put a bag of stuff downstairs, and now I can only find one mitten. Either Layla took it and hid it for herself, or it's still in that bag!

Today we're supposed to get up to 0 degrees! A big change from -30 yesterday. Tomorrow is supposed to be +2! So things will start melting, and freezing again when it goes back below 0 a couple days later. I hate this time of year because of all the ice!

Boy, you guys further north are really cold!!! We're suppose to warm up to 31* today. Still cold but not as bad as yesterday!!! We got enough snow yesterday to cover the ground, not much but it was pretty when it was falling. We're in a fire warning because things are dry and it's windy. Strange for this time of the year.

Lindsey, I just realized that your talking celcius and we're talking farenheit. I thought you were at 0 deg F and -30F. If things are thawing at +2, that's above freezing, above 32F. You're cold, but not as cold as we were thinking that you are. Maybe we need to start putting F and C after our temperatures. Love you, girl!! Don't freeze up there!!

lol sorry! I usually try to do the conversions for you guys but sometimes I get lazy. We've went from -45 to 0 (C) in a week. I went out last night on a pub crawl and didn't take a jacket :D I hate having to deal with coat check!

It was -2 on my thermometer yesterday. I think it warmed up today, but it snowed all day. It snows every day - sometimes a lot, but mostly a soft snowfall at some point. My deck almost has now up to the top. I hope it doesn't collapse. Am I supposed to shovel it?

Stay warm everybody!

donna1990 01-19-2009 01:16 PM

It got up to 70 in Sunny FL today, beautiful, lots of sunshine, but we might get snow in Tampa on Wed.

Janet 01-19-2009 01:23 PM

It's going to get up to 40 degrees this week. Yay!!!! A heatwave!!

Snow in Tampa??? It snows in Tampa??? Really, I never knew it would snow there.

donna1990 01-20-2009 10:45 AM

It snowed once in the 70's, there was enough that it stayed for a while.

A "snow blower?"

I'm not digging out there. Lots of the homes here have the same amount of snow on the decks, so I guess they'll either all collapse or none of them will.
