What's your Temperature?

Post by harvest_table »

Checking in from Fergus Falls, Minnesota.

Boy, it's cold here this evening. Clear skies and -25 now. It's dropped almost 15 degrees in the last couple hours and falling. Betcha we wake up to -30 or more (wind chills in the -45-50) Northern Minnesota will have it colder.

Keeping warm though, not complaining...just glad I don't have to stoke a fire.

Love,

Joanna

:lol: It's 34 here right now, and supposed to get down to about 20 degrees tonight - that's plenty cold enough for me. I hope you aren't thinking of letting any of that cold air escape and slide down here to Texas. :lol:

Love,

Cold here in PA and snow but still at about 28 degrees. Tonight they are expecting 6 degrees F with wind chill making it below zero. The winds are a whipping and looking at snow again on Tuesday.

Long, cold and snowy winter. Your area and Canada are sending us this weather. :twisted: Please tell it to go away. :grin:

My forecast is usually the same as Maggie's. I can't imagine YOUR kind of cold, Joanna! Bundle up!

Love,

I remember those temps from my 20+ years in Alaska. Now I live just south of Tex so his temps will be close to mine. Keep warm.

Here in sunny Arizona we are expecting a high of 73F today. I wouldn't trade our heat for your cold for anything. Been there done that.

We are at 10 below with the wind chill in northeastern Ohio.
Going to be a very cold next few days.
Will be happy to head to Florida in February for our yearly 3 sisters get together. :grin:

We are supposed to get more snow here in the Georgia mountains tonight. I have just managed to get out a couple of days ago from the last snowfall!!! I live in a beautiful valley at the foot of a mountain, two miles in on a dirt road, so when it snows, we get well and truly stuck. At the moment my road is a slippery, muddy mess--but it's a heck of a lot of fun to drive on in a pickup truck (which I have--my beloved 2000 Ford Ranger--the absolute basic model, 5-speed, radio only, etc.). I'm going to park at the bottom of the driveway and throw some firewood in the bed; hopefully I won't be stuck for too long again. If so, I can get supplies via horseback. I've had to do it before in 1993.

Thank God for our EMC, who always get our power back on, no matter what...

From today's Hong Kong Observatory
Locally, temperatures in the urban areas were about 12 degrees this morning, and generally below 10 degrees over the New Territories.
That is "cold" for Hong Kong, everyone is wearing winter jackets and hats in the middle of town.

Best, ant

PS. "New Territories" comprise mostly the hilly countryside of Hong Kong

It hit 30 Degrees here today. That's 86F. The sun has a bite.

Unfortunately as there are storms circling us it is also 84% humidity at the moment. The temp is dropping now - should get down to a pleasant 15 (69F) tonight.
