BRRRR

excpa — Sun, 14 Feb 2016 18:36:58 GMT

Anyone else wearing 3 layers of clothing indoors? And a hat? Outside it is 10 degrees (tropical for the weekend) and my high-efficiency furnace cannot get my living toom above 60 degrees. Here in upstate NY, we've had a very mild winter and it was saving it all up for Valentine's Day. Who loves you, Baby?

In Atlanta today, we're in the high 30's (at least I think- I haven't been out).

We're supposed to get some sort of wintry "stuff" tomorrow morning- possible freezing rain, a little ice, turning to rain or nothing at all at our house. I prepared for this weather event like it was the apocolypse and now I don't reallly think it's going to do anything at all.

I've been massively busy for the past several months. I planned a "don't leave the house" day for today and tomorrow and am loving it so far.

By the end of this coming week, I think we're supposed to have highs in the high 60's here- can't way.

@excpa- hope you get a warm up soon.

When I ran errands this morning, the car said it was -3. It's been like that for a couple days. Things should start improving tomorrow and we'll hit the high 30's by the end of the week.

@excpa - Neither can I! My living room is around 54 right now, I have two pair of pants on, a sweatshirt, robe, wool socks, slippers and a winter scarf around my neck. Dogs are on their beds covered in blankets. We are expecting between 3-6 inches of snow (snowing right now) and it is freezing out. But later this week will be in 60s - it's Indiana weather - wait 15 minutes and it will change.

I'd like to give you about 25 degrees, if I could. It's 90 degrees for the LA marathon today. Ain't nobody happy about that, especially the runners.

It is 17 degrees here in southern WV, and we are waiting for the snow to start falling---expecting 5 inches of fresh snow by morning. This area has had arctic cold for the last few days, with windchill factors as low as minus 25. I switched our heat pump over to the emergency heat setting 7 days ago, but we are to see temps in the 20's and up this coming week.

Just had to go put a long sweater on, Shows 23 outside. and, had to make some hot cider drink to warm from inside out!! Funny thing is, I'm watching a Net Flix show about some guy and hs dog living in Russia some area that's just in snow. This is the best way to enjoy the snow I have. There's puppies of one of his dogs, that are just too cute!!!

Spring weather here.

I feel bad for everybody in the freeze zone, especially the homeless, elderly, and the homeless animals.

Try and stay warm, and in a few months, it'll all be a memory.

It was -8 on our thermometer this morning, but it's now a balmy 10.

It's freezing here in Ct and I can't get comfortable. If I put the thermostat on 68 I'm cold, if I put it on 70 it's too hot so trying 69 now to see if that's just right. When I open my kitchen cabinets that are on an outside wall I can feel cold air coming out of them and my cups and plates need heating before putting any hot food or drinks on or in them or the food gets cold and the coffee needs microwaving even though it's hot right out of the coffee pot. Drafts and more drafts coming from everywhere it seems, windows, cabinets and even closets. This house must be poorly insulated.

It's in the teens here. My kitchen sink also sits on an overhang and this AM we only have cold water operating from faucet. Kitchen cabinet doors are open to let warmer air in to the inside. It's a balmy 14 degrees outside!

It's about 14 here right now but feels like 6 according to online weather info.

I was out for about an hour and it wasn't bad. As soon as I took my gloves off, my fingers froze. But the sun is shining and it's not as windy as yesterday. Yesterday was brutal due to wind.

It was 78° here yesterday..........and I felt cold. That's what happens when you get used to the 110's during the summer.............

What a cold snap here in NJ.Finally my temps in the house went above 65. I am about done with this winter and that is saying a lot since I usually like the wintertime. I want to feel the warm not the hot sun on my face and body again.

Believe it or not someone ratted on me to the HOA because, I was feeding a momma and her baby deer that were in our backyard. I wish I could do more for them the baby deer was so small looked like it was first born. People should mind there own business not my business.
