Since I am moving to Georgia in 3 weeks... New England weather sux.... ya know... it always has.. I have ridden my bike in the cold to work at 4 AM.... ears fell off....

I shoulda left at 3 AM just to get new ears.

Anyway, this is ridiculous. It's not winter...

It's 18˚!

When I left Ga on Monday, it was 72˚!!!!

This is silly.

Stradlater · Dec 7, 2005, 10:16 PM

18 degrees? It was 0 in Chicago this morning. That's not adjusted for wind chill.

Mastrap · Dec 7, 2005, 10:28 PM

It was -8 in Toronto today. I don't mind, I like the cold. Makes you know you're alive.

Celsius?

sek929 · Dec 7, 2005, 11:32 PM

I'm used to the cold, working outside all winter makes sure of that.

It was a balmy 25º here today.

Athens · Dec 8, 2005, 02:44 AM

its been a nice 40 degree Fahrenheit in the day and 33.8 degree Fahrenheit at night here

JoshuaZ · Dec 8, 2005, 02:50 AM

It was -2 C today in my little slice of Japan. I know this because my school isn't heated. I can't believe my co-teacher told me to "Take off the gloves when in class." Sigh... my hands were turning blue.

phantomdragonz · Dec 8, 2005, 02:57 AM

it's been in the single digits and below here... (it was 7* at 2pm today)

and it just so happens that this is our first snow of the season too!

-3 C in Shanghai last night, I thought Asia was meant to be hot.

- - e r i k - - · Dec 8, 2005, 04:38 AM

27,5°C right now. I'm melting away. Good thing there's some ice cold beers waiting for me.

nredman · Dec 8, 2005, 04:39 AM

its 0 here right now

Jens Peter · Dec 8, 2005, 05:43 AM

When do we get snow ? Enough of this windy and rain weather...!

Maflynn · Dec 8, 2005, 06:00 AM

I live in boston, and while not as cold as some of the other posters, it was a nice little shock to the system.

I'm sure the OP will learn rather quickly if he has a car to start it up and let it warm up, that's the first thing I do in the morning - run outside and start up the beast.

My wife has a remote (I can't my truck is a standard) she justs presses a button.

Kevin · Dec 8, 2005, 06:16 AM

16° Here.

Eriamjh · Dec 8, 2005, 06:36 AM

9F in Detroit. Brrr!

rickey939 · Dec 8, 2005, 06:37 AM

Chicago is damn cold...coldest December thus far ever. The snow is coming soon....

Athens · Dec 8, 2005, 06:40 AM

West Coast is the place to be in Winter

wallinbl · Dec 8, 2005, 07:31 AM

I dunno, man. I played golf in short sleeves yesterday after work. I'll play again on Saturday.

Snow is nice and all, but I'd rather just see it when I want to.

Depends, south east coast is warm as well.

Athens · Dec 8, 2005, 07:35 AM

ya except they are cleaning up from the summers storms

ghporter · Dec 8, 2005, 08:41 AM

27F here in San Antonio this morning (it's up to 28 now!). Please note that it's WAY below averages for here-and it was drizzly last night so there are some slick spots on the roads. So few people here drive like they understand friction and inertia that just a little ice makes the roads dangerous for everyone. What fun, eh?

turtle777 · Dec 8, 2005, 09:25 AM

Ok, it would be really helpful if EVERYONE here would indicate if their temperature is in F or C.

Celcius.... *phew*

BlueSky · Dec 8, 2005, 11:27 AM

S. Calif 69º F, dammit.

Just have to live the right part. We never really get the storms in the Tampa area. Further south is a problem and so is the panhandle.

ambush · Dec 8, 2005, 11:57 AM

-7 here

windchill is bad

Oh well, still not -30. But it'll come

MacNStein · Dec 8, 2005, 12:21 PM

It's due to all the global warming.

45F here right now, which is just about perfect.

ShortcutToMoncton · Dec 8, 2005, 12:22 PM

Pussies!

It's a balmy 0 C here right now (-4 with windchill). This is the warmest we've had it in over a week. Until now we've been averaging probably -15 to -20 C. I walked home from class a couple nights ago, and it was -24 C with windchill (especially downtown windchill) close to -35.

Now that'll give you a little tingle in your balls.

Call me a pussy if you want, but I call you a fool. Weather that is so extreme as to potentially cause death is simply foolish. It's 73F here today. You should visit us in the winter. You'll probably laugh when you see everyone wearing pants and coats if the temperature drops into the 60s.

Kevin · Dec 9, 2005, 07:47 AM

I hate the cold. I really do.

But there is something that can be said for a nice fireplace, warm drink, and good company on cold days.

KeriVit · Dec 9, 2005, 08:03 AM

Snow today and cold (up to 12" due) .... I can't wait to move- once I get plowed out! I have to leave work early today to get my oil burner serviced. I think I'll just stay there and have a movie marathon.... hmmmm... what's a good warm drink for movie watching?

wdlove · Dec 9, 2005, 08:56 AM

Boston T 30

A beautiful New England day, snowing. Such an awesome view.

Hot apple cider with a little bourbon (some prefer dark rum).

I was just wondering exactly what can be said for nice fireplace etc...

TheoCryst · Dec 9, 2005, 11:20 AM

Arizona weather is boring... 68 degrees Fahrenheit (that's 20 degrees Celsius, for all you people who use thermometers that make sense).

I miss snow, and fireplaces, and hot drinks... *sob*

TheoCryst · Dec 9, 2005, 11:20 AM

Yay double posts!

You got lucky.

Here on the Cape we got the usual 3" of nice snow followed by the "just above freezing" rainstorm. Nothing is colder than a damp rainy day at the freezing mark, I'll take a 10º sunny day in the middle of winter over this sh!t.
