the winter from hell

Featured Replies

This winter sucks. I have run out of room to pile snow and every few days we get dumped on again. The worst part is that it's still early February and we could have several more months of this crap.

This snow is forcing me to finish my MS3 install, I guess it isn't all bad.

I never wanted to pull the car off the road long enough to do this, but now I have no choice.

18 degrees F, snowing and wind gusts in the 20's, in the Portland OR area. Not too extreme but unusual. Many car accidents.

Even us "young" guys are sick of this brutally cold winter! In Iowa we've had 8 days in a row with the high temp below freezing and are projected to have another 10 days below freezing. Today it's supposed to reach a balmy 12 degrees. :) I guess we're finally experiencing the ice age we were supposed to get before they decided it was global warming. :)

I would like to complain, too about the solid week with lows to -20C, but I can't summon the energy! Seasonal Affective Disorder from lack of sunlight has sapped my energy. At least the town bladed our street today, reducing the 7 inch ruts in the road to a smooth sheet of ice!

Sorry for you guys there in the US ! Seems the cold really got a grip there..

Here in the Netherlands we have had no snow so far, very mild weather average 5 to 8c.. but who knows we might still get cold and snow..

Just wait, soon the melting polar ice cap will put enough fresh water in the North Atlantic to subvert the Gulfstream current and voila, a mini ice age for EuropeLOL

By the way, it was -35C here with the wind chill as I went to work today. I want out.

We FINALLY got a break today from the gray skies and below freezing inversion. It hit mid 40s today and is sunny. Yahoo!

We got 2 more inches of snow last night. Seriously, I'm out of places to pile it. :tapemouth

Send us all the frozen water you have. 100 year drought here in the Kalifornia's SF Bay area. Finally got some rain this week, but it won't be enough. I anticipate water rationing this Summer, which will include no washing of classic Z's...
