With all this talk of how cold it is, one has to assume most stay bundled up inside, and don't give a second thought to it. Yet when it is 100 plus here in Tucson everyone says how can you live there!

Well we wear our minimal clothing, hop in the air conditioned car and go to an air conditioned mall/store when ever we want.

Yet you have to put on a ton of clothes, go out and shovel/snow blow work, clean the snow off the car, to even start to think about going somewhere and hope the city or other public agency has cleared traffic lanes so you can get to a heated mall.

I survived the Blizzard of 77 in Buffalo NY, I'll take the heat.

A lot of people going to have to eat their words or do something they never expected to - I read today that Hell had frozen over!

Nothing new. Hell already froze over in the 90s when the Eagles got back together and toured.

Don't have any shots of it, but it's supposed to hit 36degrees here tonight. Is that cold enough, or is that kinda wimpy? :lol:

36??? I used to *dream* of 36 degrees! We haven't been that warm in a week - and this area is nothing like as crazy as Minnesota!

You city folks. Think your the only ones that live in Texas. It was 6 degrees the other day with a -10 chill factor in Lubbock. My radio froze in my vehicle. Been shooting basketball games indoors. To cold to go chase the Canadian Geese.


Yeah, Texas is big enough to have lots of extremes from end to end.

Gotta be careful of that Global Warming!


35 degrees in Ankorage, 37 in Greenland, 8 degrees above at the north pole, 27 in Siberia: take all 300+ readings NOAA uses and average them. It is called "global" for a reason, and climate does not refer to weather. Learn the difference.
