What's up with people in Canada going with the wind chill number? My daughter does that. Of course it's always windy in Fredericton and she walks to campus, but still. It's annoying.

What's up with people in Canada going with the wind chill number? My daughter does that. Of course it's always windy in Fredericton and she walks to campus, but still. It's annoying.
And it was in the single digits above zero here in snow Albans last week. Wasn't so bad.
i find single digits to be fine too as long as it was negative the day before. funny how that works
It was 9F this morning on Union Hill, Lower Snoqualmie Valley.
Same reason they measure their dicks in centimetersQuote:

I get the daily Sun Peaks update. It was -35 in the valley today. That is to fuckin cold to even consider for this jong.
Every time someone mentions cold and Calgary my mind instantly brings up the image of John Candy leaving the Calgary airport in Cool RunningsQuote:

Took all the XC skis in and doubled up the cold blue glide wax - these temps are with us for a couple more days yet. Hound is happy, she doesn't mind the temps, but knows she gets warm meat & bone broth when the mercury dips below -20C. Coldest its been here at this time of year since they started the weather station in 2014; can't remember it being this cold at Yuletime since I moved here in 2008.Quote:

Hope you are right, I have a new intern starting on Wednesday with us scheduled to walk around outside quite a bit at the Y/C.
What I really would like is for all the folks that moved here in the past 3 years to get a good dose of Montana weather.
That won’t matter.
This cold snap isn’t the impetus but we’re out of here as soon as we can swing it (too many moving pieces to just say fuck it and peace out).

Cool pic, I know a few families from Conrad. I've been burning way too much wood for this early. Need to go take the chainsaw for a walk, gonna be a long winter.

Yeah cool pick KQ. That Rocky Mountain Front country is not for wimps even today, but back then it was much harder. I really like those Ivan Doig novels about that area around the turn of the century. Those people were hardcore.
into the 2nd arctic outflow cold snap and its not even the new year, the ski hill is shut down
-20 C at Whistler right now.
Attachment 438821
Cold in Bayport, MN this week as well.
It’s gonna be -22F at my cabin in Fairbanks, MN on Wednesday. Yikes.
-26F at my house in Tabernash last night
I got friends from Conrad and Valier. According to them, the secret is rum and cokes.
I remember back when I was young, Dr. Pepper used to promote hot Dr. Pepper as a holiday drink………. Hot rum and Coke anyone?

Jesus. Where is that? That makes me feel better about the -10 temps that are coming where I live.Quote:

North of the wall. Among the wildlings and white walkers.
Night gathers, and now my watch begins.
My grandfather ran the grain elevator on Conrad. Dad graduated from high school there. After Vietnam he took his new family (I was born during his tour) to Valier, where we were quarantined for several weeks due to malaria.

High of 5ºF here on Thursday. Wonder if the morning low will dip below -20ºF at the house?
Hopefully not, have a couple of cords that have been seasoned. But I'm in MT and have cut and burned plenty of standing dead lodgepole and Doug same year.Quote:

I know Seattle is pretty mild compared to most places, but I noticed today we haven't had a single day yet in December where the high temperature got up to the average high for that day. This week is going to be cold with high temps right around freezing through Thursday. Supposed to get a warmup starting Friday and Christmas Day is forecasted to be around 50. People are going to be outside in shorts. :)
Now you've done it.Quote:
