Freezing temps, report in. It's Cold out there!

That's nuts, we just went through -32 to -41 (wind chill temps) I can't imagine -70.

It's about 27 degrees tonight so we're burning the pellet stove so I can clean the ashes out of the wood stove tomorrow morning before heading to the woods.

Monday night we go back in the dumper, -23 wind chill, Tuesday will be -13 during the day and - 18 at night, both are wind chill temps.

Come next weekend I'm taking the sled out, unless we lose our snow.

 

Up to 34 now.
Getting warmer as the front is moving North.
Forecast to be warmer tomorrow .
But 35 to 45 mph winds

 

Waiting for the crud to hit tomorrow. Supposed to be rain but looks like it could be ice instead. Keep an eye on the forecasts. I'll be drawing flushing water again.

 

First time in my life i can remember seeing negative temps. Maybe i just wasnt paying attention to temps when i was growing up but my truck was showing -3 on my way into work yesterday and that's the coldest i've ever seen. Woke up to freeing rain this morning but thankfully it's warming up a bit. They're callin for possibly even colder temps on tuesday. High of 12deg and low's back in the negatives.

 

Might be several individual people records set
Some may remember some cold winters, but this one
has the news media all hyped up, slow news period maybe.
It's winter, cold & snow are expected.

 

Oh they've definately got people freaking out with all the media hype. Im sure this is normal weather for some folks. We get some real cold snaps each winter and this year they just happen to be REALLY cold.

 

36° here, wind 17, mostly cloudy.
Nice break from " the norm"

 

Well here let me help in freaking people out.

We are all gonna dieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is worse than we thought !!!!

 

Grocery store sales are up.
I'd think fire wood sales would be booming.
Bet the wood bundles at the quick stores are selling well.

Frozen pipes will be the next big thing on the news,

The prez may call him "Just a plumber"
But Joe the plumber & his buddies are gonna be busy.

36° here

Some of the forecasted temps are warmer than first projected, but
Minnesota & N Dakota still in the eye of the cold.
Current temperature at Grand Forks Air Base -20 (wind chill -45)
That's cold by any standard !

 

Unbelievable
Near 40°

 

This might sum up a lot of grocery stores. Parking lot was pretty full at the local grocery store yesterday.

 

Cold right now.



Going to stay cold for a while.

 

We have rain and the temp is in the thirties just above freezing.

 

38°f here this morning.
Many below zero temps in the Mid west & it's heading East.
Wind blowing too.

Keep the skin covered if outside in the wind,
& hang out close to the stove when inside.

Stay warm

Just looked a the weather in Mid Michigan,
3° with 35 mph wind gusts.
+ Colder air headed your way

Fleece face mask weather , bundle up !!

 

Pretty much nailed it except my thermometer says 4.

No idea how strong the winds are. If I had to guess, a steady 15-20 with gusts to 30. I'm between lake effect bands now and the sun is shining. Makes it look a lot warmer than it is.

I ran the snowblower down the driveway a couple hours ago. Two foot drifts over about 2/3 of it. It's half covered again. At least I tried.

First time I ever ran the snowblower with a snowmobile helmet on. That was the best thing I could think of to keep the wind off my face. Couldn't see a darn thing about halfway through.

 

A fur trimmed hood works well.
Keeps the wind away from your face
& don't have to fight the fogging up face shield .

Cold weather helmets have have a rubber respirator mouth/nose cover to
Keep the breathing moisture out of the helmet

To get colder there soon

 

-6° now, getting colder as the day goes on -29° with wind chill

 

Snow melting here. 38°f
Deck ice about gone, snow melting off the wood stacks.

 

That's just azz backwards
