So we're having our coldest weekend for the year

[malaise]

It’s 72°F in my neighborhood
68°F In the Blue Mountains
69°F In Mandeville
The media folks have been talking about this very cold weekend that was coming.

What’s the temperature in your neck of the woods?

[amerikat]

1. -14 tonight.

next 10 days don't get above freezing. NY

[malaise]

2. 🤩 that would kill me

I hate the cold

[Jacson6]

23. Try the -40 F wind chill factor. I lived through it Michigan where I grew up and in military arctic training.

[malaise]

24. Nope

I pass 😀

[greatauntoftriplets]

3. + 16 and snowing.

I hate the cold, too.

[Ocelot II]

4. It's Minneapolis; you've seen the videos.

It's cold AF but we're used to it.

[spooky3]

5. Rub it in, will ya? It's not expected to get above freezing for nearly a week.

Lots of ice and snow here (and lots of inconsiderate idiots who do not take steps to ensure safe driving, walking, etc.).

Normal highs this time of year are around 45F. It’s been 20 or more degrees below that for over a week. But there have been few power outages in the region.

[malaise]

7. Well our media folks are so excited

It’s going to be cold they say - and then I see people protesting in below freezing weather and shout STFU idiots 😂😂😂

[spooky3]

10. My friends in Oz would freak out if it dropped to 40F.

Those folks in Minneapolis were protesting in below zero weather.

[malaise]

11. Brave souls

I really admire them

[Deuxcents]

6. It's currently 60* in Ft Myers, Florida..a front on its way and then we're in a deep freeze for a couple of days

Local news just told us where we can take the stunned lizards that will be falling from the trees and the manatee are a concern as temps will drop below freezing here starting in about 12 hours. A very unusually cold few days for us. I don’t have the clothes for this kind of weather!

[malaise]

8. I think that front has something to do with our drop

Folks in the Bahamas will put on their winter coats just because😀

[Deuxcents]

14. Yeah..the snowbirds are getting a good laugh at us but below freezing for two nights in a row is cold for us

The front comes thru in the morning and sustained winds 20-25 mph with gusts of 38-40 with this cold is gonna be one to remember

[malaise]

16. Stay warm and safe

[Deuxcents]

17. You, too. Not many of us are gonna get out of this winter vortex

[bucolic_frolic]

9. Low single digits every night

-3 forecast tonight. It's been cold for 2 months, then the last 2 weeks much worse. Same in the week ahead.

[malaise]

12. Damn

Stay warm

[WarGamer]

13. It was 83 degrees here today... an hour north of Los Angeles

[Deuxcents]

15. Ahhh, my kind of winter

[ornotna]

18. We're 10 degrees cooler than The Blue Mountains here

But no mountains to enjoy.

[Dale in Laurel MD]

19. Right now:

12 degrees F.

[malaise]

20. Way too cold for me

Stay warm😀

[BluesRunTheGame]

21. If you keep this up, I'm gonna put you on "ignore".

It’s 4 degrees and getting colder here now.

[malaise]

22. Bwaaaah

😀😀

[Ellipsis]

25. Scorcher today, 11 degrees. A few days ago for a couple of days -18...

...I was constantly checking the basement sensor of this 150 year old plus under built German farmhouse to make sure the pipes don't freeze.

Not looking forward to to the next utility bill.

Modest envy here.

[LoisB]

26. 83 today, 82 tomorrow, 68 right now (7:30 p.m.)

[Bayard]

27. A balmy 12 degrees tonight,

Much better than the 0 we had last week. High tomor of 20. Main problem is all the ice, on top of the snow we already had, and nothing is thawing. Our road is still a skating rink, and I've already slipped and busted my butt twice.

I have a little goat living in my bathroom at the moment. We found her paralyzed in the hind end, and her gums were already blue from the cold. She's now on meds, and staying warm.

[malaise]

34. Below 50 and I'm gone

😀

[Xavier Breath]

28. It's supposed t be -7F tonight and I'm fine with that.

I'll take the cold over the heat any effing day, thanks.

[Ocelot II]

30. Same here. I *hate* hot weather.

If it's cold you just wear more clothes, but if it's hot there's nothing more you can do when you've taken all of them off.

[malaise]

31. Hahahahh

😀

[CatWoman]

29. snow predicted late tonight here in Georgia and most of tomorrow

with temps plunging into single digits on Sunday.

And iguanas will be falling out of the trees in Florida.

[Conjuay]

32. If Florida still had a citrus industry,

This upcoming week would destroy it.

[malaise]

33. Yep

Now I remember that monster Katherine Harris

[Tribetime]

35. -10 yesterday set Cleveland record for day .-5 right now

[malaise]

37. Damn

That’s cold

[Tanuki]

36. 16 F. in Nashville, and nearly 55k households are still without power after the ice storm

nearly a week ago. There are hundreds of snapped utility poles, and power lines broken by fallen trees or the weight of ice. I lost power for 4 days but was fortunate to shelter with friends who were not affected. It is a real hardship, and there have been many cases of carbon monoxide poisoning in people desperately trying to stay warm enough to survive. How I would love to be in sunny Jamaica! (My sister used to live in Irishtown).

[malaise]

38. Ouch!

Stay warm and safe

[PCIntern]

39. 4 F
