I hope nobody minds this post, BUT a while back a member wanted to know about a good camera bag. I found one at www.newchic.com Its a women's handbag co. but they
advertise a camera bag. I purchased one and its waterproof and has room for all my gear. It looks like a military type bag

Particularly if you use the Reamur scale.

In Fairbanks Alaska, every fall when the temps dropped to +40 degrees the cheechakos or newcomers would bundle up in their down parkas and winter boots. In January, typically the coldest month the temps routinely dropped to -40 degrees or more. In March the temperature would rise to -10 , the cheechakos who bundled up at +40 now were running around in light jackets and short pants! After the bitter cold the spring sun and longer days were very welcome. Comfort ratings change, temperature comfort is relative to how cold you were before!

I was in Fairbanks one February 50 years ago. The temperature rose all the way to +20F and they opened the ice cream shop.

There were a lot of people there and they had to send rental cars up from Anchorage. They didn't have snow tires. That wasn't a problem at -40 to -20, but at +20 it was.

Yep, an all the bathroom scales read on the high side and need recalibration.

As I get older I notice these things as well. Things are slippery than they used to be. And the ground is so much harder than it used to be - so be careful.

And the one at the doctor's office reads even higher than that.

I think you are feeling the additional moisture in the air at this time of the year. Dry air feels warmer than wet air.

Of course there is an alternative explanation.

As I gain weight (particularly over the winter) it generates a local gravitational field that I continually have to climb out of.
