I forgot and left my Brass Monkey outside last night.

We had a low of -7. Started warming up after sunrise when I took this picture. I'll sure be glad when that global warming moves into this neck of the woods.

I am sooooo looking forward to that warming part of global warming myself! I don't think it was THAT cold here but still was plenty cold!

They can have the cold up in Alaska. I've had enough

 

[Mental Granny]

Snowing here now all day but not sticking, big wet flakes so we can use the moisture here and when the wind stopped did not need a coat.

That is colder than we have here, too. I am curious. At the risk of sounding stupid, what is the brass monkey you
mentioned that got left outside?

Hey Ray,

I'm probably the stupid one for saying it.

There is a crude old saying, "Cold enough to freeze the balls off a Brass Monkey". I thought about everyone had heard that saying at one time or another. I don't know where the saying originated.

Brass monkey (colloquial expression), meaning something solid and inert that can only be affected by extremes, or meaning an extreme of cold.

Ron,
LOL Yes I'm aware of that old saying. It is an old one. I thought about that too but i must have been a slow thinker
this morning and didn't make the connection. I'm going to shut up here, the more I talk, the dumber i sound. LOL

Anyway thanks for answerein my dumb question.
