Must be rough. Apparently I'm part polar bear.
At the moment a beautiful sunrise coupled with 28å¡ on the north end of Lake Washington. I just had to take the long way to the office so I could appreciate the view of both the Cascades (Mt. Rainier) and the Olympics. I hope the snow continues to fall up there, for the skiers and the farmers next summer.
Well normally I would be feeling the same pain but not this week, ha ha
Intellicast app is ending service at the end of the year and I've been trying out others and all of them have too much bloat and not enough quick find info.
It was a great app and some bigger fish probably bought them out.
33å¡F this morning
57å¡F now
cloudy and 15mph breeze from the south all day
90% humidity, where you almost feel wet

As I type, Route 95 around Baltimore is closed. A 40 car pileup took place a couple hours ago. 18 wheeler hit a Jersey Wall, burst into flames, fell off the bridge on to the road below.
Ice storm combined with idiots never ends well. I truly do live south of the Mason Dixon line in the Southern US.
Should I post that pic again comparing Northern and Southern drivers during the winter?
Sun has been out for a while and warmed us up to -21f.

What a range of temps. I just checked and Austin, Tx is a balmy 66 degrees while Berthoud Pass in Co is -2 with 30 mph wind and half a mile visibility. Winter is upon us kiddies.
Not sure what the official record low is today but Dubois WY landed at -31, Casper Wy shows a -29 at 7:35. Wind chills in Casper are now in the mid -40's.

When I first moved to Washington state; I would check the paper for the weather back in Omaha. There were days when the high and low in Omaha, was higher and lower than the record high and low for Seatac.
It's good to live in a temperate climate...
It was a chilly 18f in Puyallup this morning...
Current temp is 21 but feels like 6. Just got in from giving the critters the chance for full bellies before the shsnslizzle hits about 6 o'clock. There is now only a 69 percent chance of snow (shsnslizzle--sh*tty snowy sleety drizzle) at 6 which had been previously estimated as 85 percent at 5. Still saying 1-3 inches, though.
Wish I could make that disgusting snorting sound that Tim the Toolman Taylor used to make on that show with Tim Allen years ago because I intend to take Mrs. Cow out in the middle of it to treat her to dinner at our local establishment. (Yes, singular, not plural)

An hour later now and it's 20 with 30 mph gusts in Chanute. WC = 4. Hope your "girls" have some water and someplace to get out of the wind.
When it gets to be winter, there's nothing you can do except go see the "Doc" and get a shot or two.
In coffee, cocoa, coke or straight. It from Canada so the
prescription price is ok and they do know how to handle cold weather and not pizz/moan about it.

Sure don't miss those temps. Worked out in them for many years. In 1972 we were doing the prelims for a proposed subdivision south of Wilson, Wyoming and it was -42å¡ or maybe more.That's the reason I like this area in Arizona, summers are generally the same as Wyoming & Montana temperature wise, maybe a little more hot days sometimes, AND! the winters are a lot warmer. Get a little snow every once in a while just so we can remember what it looks like.

This is like winters I remember in the 60's and 70's.
Already had two rigs stuck, might need to survey out of a snowmobile........yuck!!!!

Done that a lot. Surveyed 70 miles of pipe line from the North Platte River to the Hilight Plant south of Gillette in 1970 on snowmobiles. In the winter of 1972 and 1973 we surveyed quite a few miles of buried telephone cable routes around Newcastle and North to the Four Corners area on snowmobiles and a Cushman Trackster. Had a sled on behind the Trackster with a generater to power a 3/4" drill to drill holes to set steel posts for P.I.'s and to set 1"x1" guinnies for station stakes because the ground was froze so hard, driving a frost pin or driving the posts was impossible and in most places there was about 4' of snow. Before we finished up in the spring we were slopping around in about 6" to 8" of mud.

we have a subdivision to stake, tried to start it last week, but alas it's frozen solid too deeply already (that's early) and it will need to wait till March probably.....
