Wind Chill

The thing about Florida's humid climate is when the weather turns towards cold and the wind whips out a steady thirty with the occasional burst capable of cracking tree bark the result is a soul searing deep bone hurt.

Let me put it into simple words; it's friggin cold.

And, I like it.

  2. It just warmed up from minus 25 C (-17F) here to minus 16C (+3F or so) for our daytime high. I have decided I don't like the cold anymore (saskatchewan, warmer part!)

    1. Denis, enjoy. This weather is fine with me. When Florida gets hot, it stays hot. Thanks, my new friend.

  3. Not too bad here in North Georgia. 29 degrees above. About a foot of snow on the ground, I won't be getting off the mountain any time soon.

    1. Bubba, here, 48 with wind gust of thirty, is darn cold to us Floridians. Remember, high humidity here. This wind will cut you.

  5. We are working on probably 16 to 18 inches of snow at this point. I've measured 16 on my deck with a tape measure. It is currently snowing its butt off at the moment, so the amounts will only go up. It feels fairly warm at 28 degrees.

    Most folks in my neighborhood stayed home today. My wife will spend a second night in a motel room near where she works.

  6. I was out working in it today, just bundle up. Maybe the camp out will be this cold. Knowing our luck, it will be 80 degrees.

  8. We left Orlando this morning and it was 67 degrees, less than 45 minutes and heading north on 75 it was already at 41. Too cold for me, not looking forward to tomorrow morning. Now you'll need to ignore this message next September when I'm complaining about the 98+ heat indexes!...
