A Thursday daytime high of -1. Predicted low of -17 F for Thursday night. It's almost March! Enough already. Actual temperatures, not wind chills. And then of course some snow on Friday. Those temps are for the airport which is near Lake Michigan, which keeps things a little "warmer". We're inland, so we could easily be -25. Oh and for the topper, there are dangerous wind chill warnings for Thursday. Ken2V-hush.
Sucks doesn't it, I'm in the twin cities, avg high is now 32 and we can barely break 0, 25 inches on the ground too.
Joe, what's that expression about doing the same thing over and over yet expecting a different result???? But fear not, mi compadre, our first bit of winter is rapidly approaching and we're not expected to get too far up into the 60s as a result. I am simpatico with your plight!! Damn storms.
Just build a wall like in Game of Thrones between you and Canada. Make it out of ice since it is cold enough.
I know - this is just unbelievable. We have below zero temps forecast through next week. -10 tonight -12 Wednesday Night -18 Thursday Night (-1 is the high for Thursday) -9 Friday Night -7 Saturday Night Ooh, and then we get one night where the temp doesn't go below zero - with a low of 1 above for Sunday Night -3 Monday Night -8 Tuesday Night -4 Wednesday So basically 8 of the next 9 nights are below zero. I have GOT to get out of this freakin state!!!
The normal high for Thursday should be 36 which would feel pretty damn warm right about now. Noon temperature 11 F.
this year it seems the avg high right now is 12, ugh also, the roads now have giant sand traps, errrr, I mean potholes
A great thread where all of the Minnesotans can complain about our fabulous below zero weather!! VMB has beem getting a lot more traffic in my household this winter. Side note: I did enjoy that comment about building a Game of Thrones type "wall"!
Winter, bah! The way I'm dealing with this winter is booking away time for next winter. Just completed booking 2 weeks in Clearwater FL for Jan-Feb 2015. This includes a one week cruise in the Caribbean. 23 days til Spring!
What can I say Joe? Pull up stakes and move down here. At least AC is close to beat the winter blahs.
Just read where I live we've had the coldest Feb in 25 years. 12 days with below 0 temperatures and theres a couple more forecasted this week. I'm can't wait till March and see some 70's
Joe, I know you hated living in Las Vegas but I fail to understand the logic in going back to somewhere else you dislike. Why not consider a more temperate area that is possibly a combination of the best of both worlds, and you can still visit home and Vegas when you choose. My idea may be silly, since I don't know the USA very well outside Nevada, Colorado and Florida, but I would hope somewhere would make you happy. Just a thought.....
I have 3 older brothers. The twins are 73 & the oldest will be 76 and they all live here in Wisconsin. I felt a desire to move back. We meet almost monthly for pizza & beer, which was something I missed living in Vegas where I got to see them only once or twice a year. Also understand we are suffering through one of our coldest winters in about 30 years. So I whine on VMB since my wife is tired of hearing about it.:evillaugh
Yep this winter is getting old. Local forecast for next few days: Tonight -22 Thurs night -17 Fri night -22 Sat night -20 (-10 for a high on Saturday)
