Extra chocolate...lol...

I wish we'd get a few more week long freezes...we need to knock out some more buggies and things.

Marita, your post made me quickly check my own weather forecast. We had the 40+ degree weather today, but so far, at least, I don't see anything near 29 below in the coming week. Down to zero New Years night, though. I'll need to step up the firewood carrying (from ice house to porch)--not so much fun if it rains all day tomorrow, as predicted.

I'm sure your cats are ready for that snuggle!

Yep, from ND (very close to the Canadian border), 37 above yesterday, now a minus 6 with blizzard condiditons during the day. Not much snow, but heavy winds and oh so cold expecting to warm up above 0 about next Tue--maybe!!!

We hit 40 F today and that was nice. Tomorrow, we are scheudled for maybe an inch of snow followed by a cold wave - temperatures headed toward zero. I wonder if it arrives in time to affect the Packer-Bears game in Chicago? I hear that AAron Rogers will return to quarterback the Packers. i bet the Bears will be gunning for him. This could be a mistake for Rogers - its too soon after his broken collar bone. If that gets injured again, it could be a carrer disaster. But then, the Packers need to win this game to stay in the running for the playoffs.

I don't know how you stand it. The coldest weather predicted in the next week is 15F at night and that will send me diving under the covers, wearing multiple layers. Brrrrrr. As long as it doesn;t snow, I am okay.

It was relatively warm here in the 50's today. Almost 60 in spots, but it will turn colder this week with temps in the teens and highs in the 20's. The precip tomorrow will be rain. Darn. I want snow.

That sounds brutal! Native Californian here, I think the coldest I've ever been in was low 30's! Cannot even imagine what it would be like in lower temps.

We are having high temps in So. CA--high 70's. It's not a good thing because we are having almost no rain.

Keep warm everyone, be careful.

It was -11ú when I got up this morning, and it has dropped down to -17ú now. Sun is shining, though. I did get to church, but attendance was very sparse, to say the least.

I'm dreading going out in the freezing weather to go to the doctors tomorrow. Hope my car starts.

I have to go to the grocery store - and it is freezing in Toronto. There is a salt shortage as well - never mind that I use salt alternative. At this point - for the sidewalk at least - I would go with regular salt, saving the special stuff for the dog.

after lows warmer than highs back home (Oklahoma) while I was in Florida, it sure is a freezer here, with a low of 16 this morning. I am still waiting for the 40 degree warm up for this afternoon, to go to the grocery store. :)

Moni

Will be -15 tonight, and won't get above -1 tomorrow. Slow warm up toward the end of the week, but then back to sub-zero temps next week. We've been on a roller-coaster ride for the last couple weeks.

Funny how you get used to anything, however. I've slept the last several nights with the window open about 3 inches for the nice crisp breeze! Of course I was under lots of layers of blankets and comforters, as well as two cats. I am never cold at night and only feel chilly if I'm not moving much during the day. Long undies help.

We're in a cold snap now. Temps overnight are going to -24C which is 11 below on the F scale. Brrrrrrrr.

Luckily hubby has a high body temp and I'll be snuggling. It's like being wrapped around in a heating blanket. Albeit I can only snuggle for a short time because then I get too hot. Maybe not tonite though!

-25F here tonight. Wish it would warm up enough to snow. Would rather have that than the ice. Still sleep with my window open about 18 inches though, with a reverse fan in it.

Alisande we sleep with the window wide open as well. The cool air blows in. Unless the temps are as cold as they are now, there is one of our cats in the window, loving the fresh air. These nights they are just beside the window, not in it. :)

At -25, why do you need a reverse fan in the window?

we're about a 3/4 of block from the heavier snow line, lol...the weather readers have been using 8 mile (like in the movie) as the line....dh is using the leaf blower right now...I'm still in my granny gown and slippers)...made more hot water and hot soup on to eat with leftover Chinese....
