Frozen Wasteland

It's -10.5C (13F) outside. I have no desire to leave the confines of my home.

It is near zero here and it is snoooooowing!!!!

2C outside and very windy. Feeling very rough today with a very bad headache (which tablets are holding off a bit) and early cold/flu symptoms, which I'm definitely hoping won't develop any further.

[silanah.livejournal.com]

That's cold.

Also, it's cold here (not that cold), but no snow. The weather people lied to me...

I went out to start my car and my eyeballs froze.

It was -5 F when I left my house at 5 this morning. When i walked out the door I came very close to turning right around and calling in "sick".

The sun is shining and its a balmy 78 degrees......NOT HERE ITS NOT....sigh, role on the summer, hmmmm, wait a minuit, that just means its cold and wet, instead of very cold and very wet. Why did'nt I move to somewere warm?

*brings a hot water bottle*
A measly -2 here.

[regina-of-york.livejournal.com]

13 degrees F would be a major heat wave here! It's currently a measly 1F, with a wind chill factor that makes it feel like -14F.

Winter is coming, my ass. Winter is HERE, damn it!

[catrionamacnair.livejournal.com]

Brrrrr. *hands blanket and hot toddy*

And I thought -5 was complaint material already.

[ebenstone.livejournal.com]

It didn't feel as cold as I thought it would be....and I'm surprised by today's attendance rates!

[xraytheenforcer.livejournal.com]

That's not fair! I hate it when they predict snow, and then you get naught but grey skies and the dreams of a beautiful snowscape.

[xraytheenforcer.livejournal.com]

Yeah, Boston is getting a kicking this year. The only thing worse than walking to a cold subway station is having to warm up a frozen-ass car.

[xraytheenforcer.livejournal.com]

I have no idea what temperature it was when Doug left for work this AM. Not -5F, but cold enough. I could never survive in the Midwest.

[xraytheenforcer.livejournal.com]

Does the sun ever shine in Ireland?

[xraytheenforcer.livejournal.com]

Bah. I know. I was explaining to my parents how, by February, I'll be looking forward to the -2C (30F) weather as "quite warm."

[xraytheenforcer.livejournal.com]

Germany is much more sane in these arenas, although the damp cold of Berlin damned near killed me.

[xraytheenforcer.livejournal.com]

Wait for more Lake Effect. ;-)

[xraytheenforcer.livejournal.com]

hide inside and stay warm! grog helps

[xraytheenforcer.livejournal.com]

damn, I could do with some snow. or, you know, some tropical breezes and a fruity gin drink.

[xraytheenforcer.livejournal.com]

I thought you lived in the Land of Unending Summer?

[after-nightfall.livejournal.com]

I wish.
I live in the Pit of Perpetual Fog'n'Smog.

[hereward77.livejournal.com]

I want my bloody snow, weatherbastards!

[isis-newton.livejournal.com]

Think there is some snow oop north. But as they were only forecast to get ~5cm up there, I reckon we'll get about 5mm, if that. Booo!

[misunderstruck.livejournal.com]

I misread that as the Pit of Perpetual Fog'n'Snog.

[isis-newton.livejournal.com]

Come on, they did say 'snow flurries' or something equally twee.

I want snow too though. It might as well snow if it's going to be this cold, I always say.

[xraytheenforcer.livejournal.com]

hahahaha.

[xraytheenforcer.livejournal.com]

hahahaha

[after-nightfall.livejournal.com]

LOL!

[silanah.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but if it shines in winter, it's gonna be cold.

N

[xraytheenforcer.livejournal.com]

Damn, I'm getting colder just thinking about it.

[werthead.livejournal.com]

What I hate is when it is freezing and then it decides to rain. If it was snowing, no problem, but actual ice-cold liquid water? How is that fair?

[odiedragon.livejournal.com]

Yeah, what he said. It got up to 1F on my drive into work about an hour later.

Get this - it's supposed to be 45F this weekend!!!

[knightofredempt.livejournal.com]

Only when your not looking ;-)

[bazzlebane.livejournal.com]

Close to 60 and sunny, and it will be warmer by noon.

[werthead.livejournal.com]

Looks like everybody's coming to your house on holiday then ;-)

*grumble grumble grumble*

What would you call half a flurry? Dublin had one of those this afternoon - snow was falling to within inches of the ground, but then the flakes didn't just melt, they apparently evaporated -- there was no trace on cars or on the ground. Mind you, I'm still surprised the driving didn't come to a screeching halt.

[fenryng.livejournal.com]

I can deal with the cold, despite the fact that it sucks.

What I hate is the snow, because other than the very rare snowball off of someone's head, I do no winter sports, so it is totally useless to me.

[mandyly1977.livejournal.com]

I am trying depaerately to move up near where you live JUST because I want to live where it snows. Move to Austin. There is no snow :(

[bazzlebane.livejournal.com]

I spoke too soon. It ended up pissing down rain all afternoon.
