Re: Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, it\'s COLD!!
I guess you Far Northerners have block heaters on your cars? I have no comprehension of how cold that is or what day to day life would be like with temperatures like that. But I heard the B.C. cold mass is heading south. Portland might get some freezing rain. I hate to sound like a goul but I enjoy the freakout factor. Every news crew has to out and do a live shoot from one of the most congested or problem areas of town wich causes problems.
Over 100 degrees in Canberra? You are the shrimp on the Bar-B.

Re: Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, it\'s COLD!!
-27 C this morning and about -17 most of the day. Mind you, I'm only about 4 hours away from Renegade 13.
Woke up without any hot water as my pipes froze. For those of you in warmer climates, hot water pipes ALWAYS freeze before cold. No idea why...
As for Daily life in these conditions. Stay inside, play SE4. I visited a friend of mine today who is waiting for his landlord to show up to try to fix his furnace. All he's got for heat is 2 small electric heaters. They spend their time waiting by all sitting in one room, have the heaters cranked and wear all their outdoor clothes and wait for either the landlord to get the heat fixed, or for the pipes to freeze solid, which ever comes first.

At a guess, I'd say the hot water pipes are either smaller than the cold pipes (less water = faster freezing)

Hot water has less dissolved air/oxygen in it than cold water. That's why hot water in the ice cube trays will freeze faster than cold water. |

Hmm... I always thought that Z'ha'dum was rather frigid? No sunlight, quite barren. |
