We had a very, very light amount of tiny snow this morning. |

To your knowledge, our press reports that in Southern Siberia temperatures are below -40 degrees celsius - lowest measured by publication of article was -49 degrees celsius. Oh... and those numbers for Jyväskylä are for day time. About -26 degrees celsius expected for this night. |
The Geordie Thermometer
50 Degrees. Southerners turn on their heating. Geordies plant their gardens. 40 Degrees. Southerners shiver uncontrollably. Geordies Sunbathe. 30 Degrees. Southern cars will not start. Geordies drive with their windows down 20 Degrees. Southerners wear coats, gloves, and wool hats. Geordies throw a t-shirt on (Girls start wearing mini-skirts) 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. Minus 297 Degrees. Microbiological life starts to disappear. The cows on Newcastle town moor complain of vets with cold hands. Minus 460 Degrees. All atomic motion stops. Geordies start to stamp their feet and blow on their hands. |
minus 10°C in the morning. Nothing to complain about.

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: |

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!: |
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. |
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

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: |
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. |
...cold enough to not want to get out of bed in the morning.

January 31 in central-coastal New Jersey.
It is currently 61 degrees in my town. I am in awe after 3 winters of constant snow shoveling. Late edit: My degrees are in F, 61C would be just silly.:D |
All times are GMT -5. The time now is 08:20 PM. |
