Waay too cold

[TZ]

Okay you can call me a winter wuss (which I am) but 12 degrees F with a windchill of -6 is a bit too nippy for me. I am just now unthawing from running into work from the garage.
Honestly I don't know how you guys in cold weather states like Minnesota do it. I could *not* deal with it...:scared:

[Tommy_Carcetti]

1. That's why even Maryland was too cold for me.

I'll take heat and the humidity over bone-chilling, finger numbing cold any day. At least I have a pool I can easily jump into in the former circumstance.

[kentauros]

12. I'm a heat And humidity kinda guy, too

:D

If it gets below 80% humidity, that's a "dry" day for me :P
And, if it's really "dry" I'm a static monster; I have to "ground" before touching anything electronic...

The great thing about the heat is that you can take clothing off if you're too hot, or jump in a nice pool/swimmin' hole :D

[Spacemom]

2. You and me both

I walked out on the porch to let the dogs out and turned around and came right back in. I watched from the window to see when they were ready to come in. It didn't take them long to do their business! :rofl:

[TZ]

3. Hah! I overheard a coworker talking about her St. Bernards..

Apparantly they are wusses too..begging to come in after 10 minutes outside...:D

[Deep13]

4. Apparently we do it by cranking the office heat to a bizzillion degrees.

Jesus Christ! I it is a sauna in here.

[Pierre.Suave]

5. How about

-12 with a windchill of -25?

[sarge43]

7. Where you at, jasonc?

-25. :wow:

[Pierre.Suave]

8. Minnesota

Where all the men are strong, the women are good looking, and the children are above average...

:rofl:

[sarge43]

10. Beautiful state.

We had -50F wind chills here once. That can get your attention.

Now if you want to clinch all over, on Mt Washington the wind chill is -52F with wind gusts to 100mph.

[Pierre.Suave]

11. Yes, it is a very beautiful state, I love it here.

now, -52 sent chills through me...

I think that would be a good day to stay inside and find someone cute to snuggle with...

:P

[sarge43]

20. A snuggle is never a bad idea, no matter the weather.

Hot coco, Grandma's quilt, good music, fireplace humming away ....

:applause:

[sarge43]

6. We keep better in the cold. ;)

:hi:

Central NH: 14F, wind chill: 0F

No, you're not a wuss. If you're not use to polar, it isn't easy to deal with.

[madinmaryland]

[madinmaryland]

21. You know what really sucks, is that it is probably will be too cold to go

down to the pool this afternoon. Maybe the beach, though. Warm sand on my barefeet!!

Life sucks doesn't it!

:evilgrin:

[TZ]

25. I hope you get

Sunburned....:grr:

[madinmaryland]

[trof]

18. I remember doing a preflight walkaround at O'Hare one January.

It was 5 a.m, dark, and it's the coldest I've ever been.
Don't remember what the temp/wind chill was, but it was waaayyyy low.
I could only make my way around about 1/4 of the 727 before I started to shake violently and had to step back inside the terminal and warm up for a few minutes.
Then back out and pick up where I'd left off, then back inside to warm up again.

When I entered the plane and the cockpit, it was ice cold.
Somebody had turned off the APU, so the bird sat there with no power or heat all night.
The lavs and potable water tank were frozen solid.
Took us a couple of hours to get everything thawed out.
B-r-r-r-r

[ThatsMyBarack]

19. I had trouble getting out of bed this morning.

Minus 3 in Chicago! :yoiks:

[kentauros]

23. I had trouble getting out of bed this morning, too

since I went to bed at 3ayem last night, getting up around 6

[Burma Jones]

27. Very cold and windy for the DC area

I went to College in Galesburg, IL where a windchill of -6 is balmy......

The coldest I remember it being around here was during Reagan's second inauguration which ended up being held indoors. The Parade was held at the Capitol Center.

My folks are here from Wilmington, NC and they haven't seen this sort of cold for a long time.

[TZ]

30. OOh. Its warmed up a bit...

20 deg F with a wind chill of 2 degrees..Just balmy for me to go out and run errands!
I hate winter.x(

[SidneyCarton]

31. Naaah, I can't call you a wuss.

At 30 degrees, we Southern Californians curl up and start to die.

[ThomWV]

32. 4 Degrees here this morning and the wind blowing like a son of a bitch too

I have no idea what the wind chill factor may have been and I had no intention of walking outside to try and make an educated guess.

[Inchworm]

33. 14 degrees at noon?!?

Yes, it sucks :D

If it's going to get this cold we should at least get some dang snow.

:hi:

[northernlights]

36. you're welcome to come visit my place.

positively toasty at 19F. Oh, don't forget to bring your snowshovel. Had a bit of a nor'easter last night.

[undeterred]

34. Its -6 degrees here and my car won't start.

I'm going to wait until it 'warms up' and try again.

[Sequoia]

35. And here (N. Cal) I thought cold was 21 degrees.

Well heck, I couldn't get my car started 'cause the battery was too cold. Stay warm my friend.
