How cold is it?

[Krauter]

Freaking cold that's how much :O:

Here in Montreal it's a nice -15 Celcius today. How cold is it where you're all at?

[Herr-Berbunch]

14:49 it was 11.8°C

Now seven hours later, the sun disappeared five and a half hours ago and it's still over 10°C - that's not right :doh:

[kraznyi_oktjabr]

Just -5 degrees celsius here in Jyväskylä, Finland this year. Yesterday was "cold" day with -12 C.

Last year I waited bus in -33 degrees celsius (in morning -25 to -30 during day) so weather is somewhat hot at the moment.

[mookiemookie]

It's supposed to be 68 F/ 20 C here today. :sunny::cool:

[Skybird]

Last year I started shipping snow after mid-Novembre, and there was plenty until February.

This year - not one snowflake. Yesterday I was working on the balcony - in a T-Shirt. Oh, and the trees in the garden are blossoming currently.

Its much too warm over here. So far we have had only two nights below zero this "winter" - -1°C, that is. A joke. It used to drop to around -10 - -18 in past decades. This month, it hardly drops below +5°.

Exceptions from the rule are exceptions. In general, by trend winters become warmer over here.

Plenty of mosquitos this year, I fear. No frost that killed their larvas.

[kraznyi_oktjabr]

It's supposed to be 68 F/ 20 C here today. :sunny::cool:Should I read prayer asking God to place minus mark in front of that 20 C? :hmmm:

Aye, -5C in Varkaus, yesterday was around -15C-ish.

Definitely not anything like last winter was, that kinda sucked. :shifty:

I'll see you're 68 F and raise you 75 F / 23 C. :D

[kraznyi_oktjabr]

In March 2006 I was in Nerja, Spain. I reported weather to my friend who was at the time in army. Message was about this "Hello from Spain! Its 20 degrees in shadow. Whats weather there?". Response: "In forest. Minus 20 degrees, wet and cold." :D

[CCIP]

It's only at the freezing point (0C/32F) outside, but it's bloody cold in my room :stare:

Should be down into chillier temperatures by weekend.

I still remember my early morning commutes in Ottawa, where at least for two weeks each year I'd be cursing while waiting for my bus in about -30 weather (that's both C and F) :haha:

Really am not a big fan of the cold, though I guess you can learn to live with it.

[Dowly]

It's only at the freezing point (0C/32F) outside, but it's bloody cold in my room :stare:

My whole apartment is bloody cold. :doh: The insulation on the windows and the
balcony door is kinda crap. Tried to change it to new one last summer, but that
doesn't seem to work too well.

Good thing I have my PC on so much, works wonders warming the place up. :haha:

[Herr-Berbunch]

You should move to somewhere a bit warmer, and somewhere that isn't in the middle of nowhere!

Join HunterICX in Spain, that'd cheer you up. :D

Oh... and those numbers for Jyväskylä are for day time. About -26 degrees celsius expected for this night.

10 Degrees. Southerners begin to Evacuate. Geordies go swimming in the North Sea.

Zero degrees. Southern landlords turn up the heat. Geordies have the last barbecue before it gets cold.

Minus 10 Degrees. Southerners cease to exist. Geordies throw on a lightweight jacket.

Minus 80 Degrees. Polar bears wonder if it’s worth it. Geordie Boy scouts start wearing long trousers.

Minus 100 Degrees. Santa Claus abandons the North Pole. Geordies put on their long johns.

Minus 173 Degrees. Alcohol freezes. Geordies become frustrated because the pubs are shut.

Warm winter here on the mid-atlantic.


We have not gone under freezing too many times this winter.

A great change after getting slammed with nasty nor'easters 3 days apart.

I love shoveling 18 inches of snow from around my truck, then 2 and a half days later have to shovel another 2 feet of it out.

Jersey has been cursed with blizzards past 3 years

Yeah. Fun.:nope:

siberian cold? that's mild winter weather around here (Montreal). I was snowboarding at -20c 10 days ago and it felt very mild.

Boarding all day at -30c with another -20c windchill, that's Siberian cold. We only come inside to warm up when we can no longer feel our fingers and toes.

Ah canadian winters!, you have to love it. :arrgh!:

[Osmium Steele]

A high of 52 F. on 30 January in Michigan.

A January thaw is not at all uncommon, but it has to freeze before it can thaw.

Still, not as warm as 2006.

[BossMark]

35 F in Leeds at the moment and I am off to watch the football best get wrapped up and take me hip flask :D

[kraznyi_oktjabr]

Currently -21 degrees celsius in Jyväskylä (-23 with wind factor). Earlier today it was -20 but -28 with wind factor. In the end it was somewhat chilly day today - not cold though. :DL



Okay, okay, "freezing" don't hit! :O:

[Hottentot]

The Red Capital of Finland has recently jumped from -10 to minus -20. Found out the hard way this morning when walking with the doggie.

But the funny thing about cold is that it looks worse on paper than in reality. When it goes from 0 to -5, you will notice it. When it goes from -5 to -10, again you will notice it. But after -10, it doesn't matter too much if it's -15, -20 or -30. It's just cold.

Also, as it gets colder, the climate also becomes more dry. I actually prefer dry freeze of the -30 and -40 that we have had in here in the last two winters over the wet shivering cold of 0 degrees. Especially if there is no wind.

[jumpy]

[Penguin]

Calling our temperatures "siberian cold" should just illustrate how full of crap the press here is - slow news, nothing else happens other than our corrupt president.

I live in the very West of Germany, it's mostly mild and wet. The wetness is what makes "our" cold here so pesky. Like Hottentot mentioned, the dry cold the people up North have, is much easier to bear.

We have an arid period going on since 2 months, today we had -2°C and sunshine - I was good in a sweater outside during my smoke breaks - it was pleasant.

(Excuse me dear Finns and Canadians: I know at -2° shorts and a t-shirt are more appropriate in your countries :O:)

Where I am, it was a nice chilly 20c yesterday, topping 24c today. And that's a welcome respite from the 30+c of the past week. Darn Melbourne weather. It's either freezing cold, boiling hot, or both in one day.

[Takeda Shingen]

Going to be 60 F in Allentown tomorrow. I went to work without a coat today, and will be doing the same tomorrow. Can't recall a warmer January, and February looks to be more of the same. Going to be a hell of a year for those damn stink bugs.

Cold isn't our problem here in Reno. It's the heat. We are 10° above normal here for almost 3 months. Only had two storms so far this season, one in mid November and the other in mid January. Both came in from the South West.

When we get this kind of storm it means lots of wind, 60 MPH with gust up to 80. To the South of Reno there are narrow canyons and 80 MPH winds are common there. Both storms started wild fires. The winds took the fires right up those canyons. 4,000 acres and 31 homes lost in the first and 3,200 acres and 29 homes lost in just 6 hours in the second. Heroic efforts by the fire departments saved maybe a hundred or more homes in the second. Fireplaces ashes started this one, guy just dumped hot ashes in the back yard weeds.

Virgina Peak about 15 miles from my house reported a gust of 140 MPH.
That's cat 3 or 4 hurricane speeds.

Wild fires at this time of the year are unheard of.

We have had the driest Nov. and Dec. in a hundred years. Zero precipitation in Dec. It's hard to get lower than that.

[McBeck]

Hitting -15c later this week

[phil21]

-10° C right now, going to be lowest next friday. Problem here is, it is a very dry but windy/airy cold, so windchill is quite effective. zero snow.

funny story: neighbours are keeping their cat in the house over night, because it's too cold. But when they go to work in the morning, the little fellow is sent outside for the day. Ten minutes later she's warming her feet on our sofa :dead:.

[CCIP]

+4C, everything's melted :cry:

I don't like the cold, but I do like it when there's at least snow in the winter, otherwise everything just looks brown and dreary!

How cold is it here? We've barely had a winter this year. It is currently ~41 degrees F outside (in February!? :o), and what little snow we did have has melted off. :06:

This summer has been our coldest December for 50 years and our wettest January for 10 years. Bring back the sun please?

[Hottentot]

Bring back the sun please?

We have plenty of sun. Looking out of my window, I can't see a single cloud in the sky. But it doesn't exactly make me happy, since the stupid fireball on the sky has taken the proverb "cold comfort" way too literally.

That's one of the biggest ironies of this season. The winter days are usually the sunniest of the year, and yet it's -20 to -40 outside.

[Obltn Strand]

No, this is exactly the directive: Keep it cold, so that you guys stay inside and don't go out onto the streets and protest the glorious EU. :know:

Getting cold here as we get the edge of the 'Big European Freeze'. It was about -5c last night and didn't get much above 0 all day. Probably get cold tonight. I think -15c is forecast for some places but probably not here. Nothing like the last few years but colder than it's been. In fact, the weather has been beautiful: Cold, very dry, no wind at all, blue skies; exactly the sort of winter weather I love.

You fellas further east watch yourselves. Sounds like it's getting bad over there.
