Default Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, it\'s COLD!!

So, how cold is it where you live this morning?? Well, I bet it isn't colder than I have right now. Our thermometer goes down to -50 C, and right now it's almost there. I bet we're at -44 C. We usually get something like this a couple days a year, but even this is cold for us! Nothing like a little cold to stop the school buses from running, and me from having to go to school! Woohooo!

Only a foot and a half? gee you must have a really small driveway.. here when it snows I have a good 500 cubic feet of snow to shovel.

Cheers!

Similar situation here... Last Wednesday evening we got 1 1/2 inches of ice that came down then 6 inches of snow on top of that...Yesterday it was near 60 outside and all the snow/ice is gone and we have 3 inches of rain in the past 24 hours. Indiana weather I tell you....

Looks like we've hit -47 and that's the lowest it's going to be for a while....I hope!

Looks like tonight is going to be even worse than Last night... It's already -42 at just before 11PM. Likely, by 8AM tomorrow, it'll be near to -50 Celcius. I've never seen it this cold, and neither has my dad who's lived here for the past 47 years. So cold, one of our cats got pneumonia, and is spending the duration of this cold snap indoors.

So cold the hairs in your nose freeze to the flesh inside your nose everytime you breathe in. You cough the first time you breathe in such cold air, and within 10 - 15 minutes you could freeze nearly to death.

On the plus side, I'm not going to school tomorrow either! Get monday off, so 5 day weekend! At least some good comes of this.... [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Cold.gif[/img] [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Flag_Canada.gif[/img]

Hey, that IS global warming! Blizzard? Global warming! Heat wave? Global warming! Flood? Global warming! Drought? Global warming! Hurricane? Global warming! Tsunami? Global warming! In fact, about the only thing global warming DOESN'T cause is mild weather!

Well, according to a movie I recently saw, global warming can cause an ice age because the warming melts the polar ice caps, releasing a lot of fresh water into the ocean, which can cause the North Atlantic Current to shut down. That's the current in the ocean that brings warm water from the equator up north. I'm not sure how much of that stuff from the movie was simply made up. Yeah, I'm talking about "Day After Tomorrow".
