Well I serviced the snowblower and my wife bought me a new set of Sorels and guess what....it snowed.  Maybe I should have put off servicing the snowblower?
We got 5" of new snow yesterday and last night it was a tropical -8f (yeah that's a minus sign).  It's noon now and only 26f.

I have a bird feeder outside my office window and I'm looking out at a large covey of quail that frequent the feeder.  Those little dudes must have antifreeze for blood!  How they can stay out in that cold all night is beyond my comprehension.  :?


Wow, Steve, that's cold!

Here in central Illinois, it's 65 today and forecast is for 20's and snow tomorrow.  Yuck.

Where is home Steve?

Here in Central Texas it is 73 degrees at 2:45PM and raining with a front on the way (shorts, t-shirt and flip-flops right now). Mid 30's tonight, high in the low 40's tomorrow and tomorrow night in the low 20's. Nice weather is on its way out. I guess we can't complain, we almost never see the single digits.

Get this...

So i'm Canadian, in Ontario to be more specific... and it's 14 degrees c --> which is about 57 or 58 fahrenheit for you American folks.  :winkin:

There's global warming for you, it's unheard of being this warm in november/december... the average for this time of year is about 2, of 36 fahrenheit.

...it's going to be warmer here than in central Texas soon. haha.

If you don't like the weather wait a day. It was miserable here yesterday with freezing rain and high winds but actually fairly pleasant today. I don't know about global warming but I accept climate change. How would I know what's "normal" in geological terms? I've only been here 55 years. People keeping track? A couple of hundred years. Who knows? Change is inevitable one way or another. 

On the bottom bit of the globe we hit a humid 33C - about 90F?

...and this is just the beginning - late Jan/ Feb is the hot part of summer. Stay warm up there!
maybe...what key is it in?

While we may be experiencing above average temps in Ontario, I heard on the radio that we set a record for this date one year ago today!   Is this the new average???  Not so lucky in western Canada, however, where they are setting new records for lows...and no, I'm not delusional.  I know it will all end soon, but the good news is - no need to worry about humidity levels yet!

The coupe Vanier (canadian college football cup) finals was this weekend in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan and it was -21ºC (-5.8F). So I guess global warming doesn't apply there.  :arrow

BTW The Rouge et Or won, go Université Laval go! :laughin:

Poor Victoria,  British Columbia...they got a foot of snow..oh ya...the city has no snow removing equipment and no one owns shovels.

They're not having a good time right now.

Here in Bc it is around -20 c with the wind chill,we are expecting about another 6" of snow,which we plan on sending back to   :cheersOntario for some reason our weather seems to be transported out East,we are the ones on the West coast that have flower blooms on our trees out here in late December and early January :humour:so do n0pot worry out East we will send some of this stuff your way really soon :+1:.louis......ps our ski hills are all open

In New England its 56 degrees, but damp so it feels colder.  Still, its been a warm fall.

Here in Oxnard it's in the 60's F...at night.
I am wearing shorts, a T-shirt and flip flops. Hmmmmmm...do you s'pose that's why the Larrivee's moved here?
Oh yeah...the red snappers and ling cod are biting at the Channel Islands....can life get any better?

It got up to around 72F today. Tomorrow is suppose to be about the same temperature, then Friday the high is supposed to be 41. Thats Tennessee for you.  :rolleyes:

Seattle weather....18f this morning warming up to 30f tonight with freezing rain.  We had some snow (not much...but enough to close schools for the week and cause tons of damage from folks sliding on ice) My snow blower (hey I used to live in Ontario) was ruined in last weeks floods (along with all my cabin possessions :{ .  )   My guitar humidifier is running strong and my cabin dehumidifier even stronger!

This was my morning chuckle... I have to laugh when you guys on the left coast get "not much" snow and the schools are closed for the week. 
:tongue:

-37c yesterday, -15c and snowing today.
It was -35c most of the week , the humidity in the house was around 30%, very dry. We've had to have the fireplace raging all week , so the L-05 has been in the case with the humidifier. After about 20 minutes of playing, the fret tangs start polking out and ripping the skin off my hand!!! But after a quick trusstrod turn, it's really settled in and is playing superbly!!! My larry seems to play/sound it's best in the winter for some reason.
CHEERS!!!
