  2. So far Monterey Bay, CA and Honolulu, Hawaii are the winners in the Least Stupid Places To Live, Meteorologically Speaking contest. If it weren't for careers and family and the guilt I'd be outa here so fast. This winter shit sucks out loud! I play the Powerball for the fuck you money it would provide.

    Thanks for reminding me why I left Minnesota. Just think, you only have to deal with it for another 4 months!

  5. It's been very windy and very cold here today, but no snow yet! We usually get a few weeks of snow each year, but mostly just endless rain.:(

    18 Degrees and wind straight out of Alberta today. and I had to work on the daily driver so my wife can drive it to work. Damned glad that I didn't throw away the insulated bibbers because the zipper crapped out. Hopefully next weekend will warm up a bit so I can go buy a me to me Christmas present. Hint, it has rust on it and was made in 1928.

    The hell with -29. It's a balmy +24 F at the bottom of Tennessee on the Georgia line and even the dog won't go out to piss.

    Man i feel for ya! It doesnt get this cold here but it gets pretty damn unconfortable
    nontheless. last here we where just a little under zero and already had frozen door
    locks, frozen glass and of course frozen roads! Problem here is umidity, so even if it isnt

    I'd move in no time if the opporunity was good enuff!

    We got the first dusting of snow today in Dayton Ohio but I keep saying I am moving to a more warmer climate but so far I am still in Ohio,I just have too many cars and junk to move so maybe its time to have a auction and get the hell out of here. Attending the Turkey run in Daytona Beach the first time in 2000 got these thoughts of moving started.

    i was out to tidy up the garage yesterday, havent insulated yest, so i was in the full gear, even a bellaclava, still was cold. we moved back to Manitoba after 7 years in Ottawa, ON.....very damp there, some snow but the first two years there it poured rain on Dec 24th, and we were flabbergasted !

    But, now finally winter has dug in here, but no great dumping of snow...yet...I'll put some snow fence up to keep the drifts off the driveway and wait patiently for the end of April to get back into it.

    btw, my wife know that next fall the garage is getting insulated, drywalled and a heater installed.

    and to think my inlaws leave Wednesday for Barefoot Bay, Florida for 3 1/2 months....we may drop in to see them and the 75 degree temps in February...sheesh !

    keep the faith !

    a couple pics of the new house going up across the back from us and the farmers field next door, gonna be windy cold boy !

    I'm dumb enough to live in it...although not nearly as bad as you've got it. A "light dusting" predicted by the Weatherdouche turned out to be about 8 inches where I'm at. GOT to move back to TN.
     
  22. This was last December here in Washington, kind of rare for us, here on the West side... IMG_0310.jpg 40' is now in the garage.
     
  23. Tornadoes hit once every so often, only for a few minutes, and usually not the same place.

    Snow is every year, and for months at a time.

    Happens every year here. Usually for about four months... A heated shop is essential.
    About -20 today

    I hate cold weather and snow. You are a tough man to live up there...I complain about the humidity and heat here. I guess it's not so bad here.

    Snow? ...what part of "Canada" did you not understand?

    I get tickled at people who are native Kansans bitching about the weather (-20 to 120) for the last fifty years of their lives. You would think they would know what to expect by now, lol.
