The Official Winter 2007/2008 Thread
-
Winter's here. Yup, as much as those living in the northern hemisphere would like to believe otherwise, last night's blast of frigid air from Canada (notice nothing good ever comes out of Canada?
) plunged temperatures from the upper 30s yesterday to just 4°F (-16°C) this morning, and served to remind us of what to expect in the next few months. The cold front that moved through the midwest also brought wind gusts of up to 40 mph this morning, resulting in wind chills down to -10°F (-23°C).
Here's hoping the SO contingent manage to keep warm and comfortable this season.

Fortunately, we received only a very light dusting of snow last night--not enough to cause any problems on the roads.Originally posted by littlestream:

And need I remind you that, in that part of the North American continent, the cold winds normally blow from the north? The warm, gentle and caressing breezes that grace Canada during the summer months blow from the US; in return, we get to endure the bitterly cold, harsh and oppressive weather that blows out of Canada during the winter months.
Not a fair trade at all, I say! -
i am waiting for Rain and powder to fall.

As for the weather, I really cannot complain. It's been pouring here since early this morning and what a relief. We really need the rain. It hasn't rained here for God knows how long, everything's brown. My only complaint is that I can't figure out the bloody thermostat on our new heat pump. Grrrr!!! -
Ummm.... errr.... hmmm... how can I put this diplomatically?Originally posted by jetta:My only complaint is that I can't figure out the bloody thermostat on our new heat pump. Grrrr!!!
Okay, I'll just say it: RTFM. -
A winter storm warning has been issued for the region today. We're expecting at least ten inches of snow.
And it's not even officially winter yet...... -
