Re: How cold is it ?

Heck, it's warm here now, up in the 20s...last week it was -11º with wind chill at -35º , but we got 8" of snow yesterday with 1/4" of ice crust on top of it. Yesterday's commute was a bit rough.

Re: How cold is it ?

We've had 24 days this winter that were -30c or below and windchill in the -45 range. So I'm jealous of you guys where just below freezing is cold lol.

It may sound odd, but in some places it usually only snows when it's relatively warm. Possibly because it only gets really cold when it's clear & the air is dry. Obviously this was not the case when you were in Alaska.

Re: How cold is it ?

...-9 here now, ... 2 or so inches of snow on way tonight. ... strong rumor says that east cost has used about 300K Tons of road salt so it is in demand.
my latest million dollar invention is a Car Wash with a spot free diesel fuel/rust inhibitor rinse on end of wash cycle. .........time will tell

life is good.

... this ain't a cold snowy winter, ... as teenagers all we would have needed was a jean jacket and our Mom's one wheel wonder Plymouth.
