If luck is holding out, it will have rained recently meaning superb traction and no dust.
OK, now you're just being ridiculous. Rain at 19 degrees would bring the entire state of SC to a screeching halt...in a ditch on the side of the road. Hell I spit out the window this morning and there was a 9 car pileup behind me.
Yeah, know what you mean. Still love it out in the woods when riding across a puddle means watching chunks of ice fly.
-1° this a.m. w/ windchill factor to -20°. After it gets so cold numbers really don't matter... it's just too berkeleying cold.
It was 13 degrees this morning in Atlanta.
It was 8 degrees in Loganville, warmed up to 12 degrees by the time I got to work an hour later. Brrrrrrr!
26 degrees at 1:30 pm here in the Armpit. That's about 20 below the norm for this time of year; typically February is our coldest month.
-3 here, and it just started snowing too.
Was weird this AM I went to Boston and when I got to the job my trucks telling me it is 8 degrees. Since I had come from home where it was -6 when I got out of the truck it was actually nice.
When I was a kid, my uncle in Alberta was a baker. He had a deep freeze that was 30 below. He said when it was 40 below outside, they went in there to warm up.
In reply to Dr. Hess:
Sometimes when I worked retail I would take a walk to help keep alert, to the back room of the freezer where they kept the ice cream, going from roughly 70 to -20 in a dozen steps really wakes ya up.
heat wave here ...
it was 2°F yesterday morning .. it's 20° this morning
I think we got into the 20's this week, heater decided to quit working in the DD, still haven't broken out anything more than a jacket and an extra pair of socks. Planning on going out fishing the flats Monday morning.
69 days till spring.. That is all I have to say
Today was beautiful. 50s, sunny, just a hint of a breeze. Too bad I'm fighting the flu.
