Holy crap it is cold outside... And I am in Florida... sheesh. How cold are you ?

Unfortunately yet another winter here in northern New Mexico is far too warm for the pinyon pine trees to reproduce. The most recent year we had an average winter was in year 1977! Since then the climate division has been warming, and the trees are not getting cold enough to produce seeds. At higher elevations they produce seeds, but as Earth continues to warm anomalously even those trees will no longer reproduce. A few years ago pinyon pine seeds were collected and taken to the seed storage facility in the Arctic Circle so that the species might some day be re-planted after geoengineering efforts to normalize Earth's temperature are applied.

115 vehicles in pile up(s) on a stretch of I-94 this morning.
I'm safe due to still shoveling towards the truck.
Still need to clear back deck and steps for belly dragging in the snow dogs.
I'll plow the road and probably just hole up another day.

Well, lets see, it hovered in the single digits for a couple of days, but is in the 20's today.
My wood burhing heater is using a log every 3 hours. the logs are 11" long and 8" in dia. They are quarter split.
My house is 50'X35'. I also use a 7500 btu quartz heater in each of the two bedrooms. The combo keeps it in the 60's even with 7 degrees outside.
6" walls with 6" of insulation. Frank
Most of it's gone now.

Well it's been around -10 at night here in Maine. Windchill about -30. I went to the ocean early this morning and I'm not sure what the wind chill was but I'm guessing about -50.

with 11MPH winds? LOL You know what we call 11MPH winds here? We call it "dead calm". 20MPH is just a normal day, and there aren't trees or hills or anything else to stop it.

Still a balmy 82 degrees here today... but I'm still living in denial or la la land. Leave me alone (till it's warmer).

 

[Msbeepbeep]

Ahab8 is that your floating igloo in the Atlantic! Nice! Just don't take it too far south.

Limitool Just crank up the wood stove to a balmy 82! Works for me!

Thursday morning -3.6f with a chill factor of -20f. Will be tough digging this weekend and gonna be sure to only dig the best tones.

It's so cold here, I scraped a brown spot off the mattress with a knife, threw it in the fire and it made a fart sound.

 

[Oregon Viking]

Yeh..67 here yesterday, 60 now!

It's always an interesting trade off. We here in the northeast suffer through months of freezing cold. But........we also have incredible history dating back to the early 1600s waiting for us under that frozen tundra. Some others out west and in the south have the great weather year round but the history normally isn't quite as old or extensive. Then you get the guys like Bill in Va that have the super old sites and lots of em. And the weather isn't nearly as terrible as it is here in the northeast. So it's all a trade off. Hence the reason I live in the NE and have to go on a cruise in the dead of winter to escape the freezing cold. I gotta say the older I get the more I hate the cold but I sure love the amazing colonial coins and relics that are so plentiful in my neck of the woods. Stay warm my friends. This too shall pass :-)
