Cold

La Nina is bringing cold air and record cold temperatures .

Winter is coming, prepare.

Good for ice racing.

Yeah...have fun with that.

As I've said over and over, I miss Philly a ton, but never ever again do I want to experience a true winter.  I've now become a true southerner...when it drops below 60, I'm cold. 

We are going to 13 deg by sundown today. . ..   Just another day in the north east. . . .

Wimp. It's pond hockey season.

We havnt hit single digits yet. Its basically still mild fall weather!

Finally turned on the heat today, house was down to 50 degrees and damp.    It was 15 degrees last night which is cold for this early in southern Wisconsin.  Kitties are thanking me for turning on the heat.  

First day with a real coat. It was covered in cat hair. 

And I have a mtn bike race this weekend.  Weee! 

Yeah the local ice racing lake near me hasn't been frozen solid enough for ice racing the past two years.  (Turk Lake in Greenville MI with the Furrin Group).  Hoping for a proper winter this year and some ice racing.  :)  

11 degrees this morning..  going to warm up to 42 tomorrow.

TIme to load up all my cans and go get some off road diesel for the furnace because I didn't bother getting the heating oil tank filled over summer.  Heat pump works down to 25 or so.  Once we hit that i kick over to the oil furnace.  

It was 47 this morning. I apparently didn't move far enough south. 

In reply to Pete Gossett :

I know, we actually turned the heat on yesterday. Good thing is looks like mid 70's all next week.

15° forecast overnight. Cleared out all the paint and chemicals from the garage last night. Garage projects officially over for winter now. 

It was -17C here this morning and -27C with the windchill. Not ready for this yet.

Today's high was 36 today. Yay. /sarcasm

I just need to find someplace that is always 75 degrees in the daytime, 60 at night, has a low CoL, no hurricanes or Typhoons, earthquakes or Tsunami's and no volcanos. Someplace like where I am now, but always warm. and sunny. With racetracks and gun ranges. 

I was talking to my counterpart in Ashtabula and he said they were having a regular snow storm. Craziness, it was cold but didn’t feel snowy.

It just dipped into the teens with a RealFeel™ of 9°F

I have to go find a knit hat and gloves so I can run in the morning.

I dunno if it's getting older or what but my tolerance for colder temps seems to be getting wimpier.  A Florida retirement is sounding pretty nice these days!

In reply to KyAllroad (Jeremy) :

That definitely happened to me & one reason why we moved down here to MS. 

Dang cold weather.  I must remember to drive the truck more often!

This is my first winter with a heated garage- all you PA whiners can come over and work on my stuff 

In reply to Pete Gossett :
