Cold weather in USA

[Indianamac]

Wind chills predicted to hit -15 to -25 here tomorrow. Good old fashioned winter!! Gives me a good excuse to stay in and roll more sticks!!!!

One last night. Five now. You can bet I did mine inside.

at 9:30 am it is up to 5 f but the wind died down so it does not feel as bad as yesterday.

 

[winston-smoker]

I would.

He did -- not unexpected. Naturally, I wasn't too happy about it, but I couldn't blame him, and I knew it was coming. Pretty cold this morning too, but at least I was able to walk him enough to get business done.

At 9:30 AM it's 9 F, the news put the "windchill" at -8 F. It's supposed to get up to a "balmy" 21 F today.

it is -20f with a -44 windchill right here in Wisconsin right now right today. just bragging

I'm underprivileged, it's 56 F with a calm wind. Turning windy and colder later, with some kind of frozen crap tonight and tomorrow. The ditches will be filled with morons in the morning.

I was in Dallas in a snowstorm. What a pathetic sight, It was good winter driving conditions for me. I had to go and hide from the carnage in the roads. looked like a demolition derby

Snow and ice don't bother me, I just wait a few hours for the heard to get thinned out.

my sons in cordova alaska and it is warmer by around thirty degrees than connecticut. they have been cutting ice because rain does not go through ice and everything is flooding.

Has anyone ever tried to use a riding lawn mower as a snow blower? Not with an attachment, just drop the blades and let her rip.

i never tried that but i mulch and bag all the fall leaves then add them to my compost pile. if i turn them mixed with dirt and debree a few times they are ready for the garden and outdoor potted plants by spring.

I'm toying with the idea to use it to remove snow from my dirt road.

9F in Northeast Alabama this morning. The record low was 16F in 1961. Single digit temps are pretty rare around here apparently. I had to hold a lighter to the pilot light on my back up gas heater this morning to thaw out the pilot light. It's cold!

 

[indianjoe]

Knucks, keep that cold up "Nawth", its 31 this am so it has not filtered down south yet.

Al Bore confidently predicted that by this very Winter the polar ice caps will have entirely disappeared. We were assured this is the unanimous conviction of settled science. There's just a month and a half of Winter left. It ought to be an exciting seven weeks.

My advice: Sell your snow blower now before the market for them takes a dive.

 

[Michibacy]

Webmost, I've sold over 20 since November 30th. Big ones, for tractors etc....

Hey Knucks,
At least it is not raining. Think we only had 4 rain free days in January last year. Lol.

You have a point there. I don't think rain would stand much of a chance today. Let's go deer hunting!
