I spent the entire day outside yesterday moving snow.
Gotta make room for the Thursday storm.
Job security.


I'm not thrilled with the weekend forecast - minus 25 windchill, and I will be outdoors from sun up to sun down. Time to break out the toe warmer packs.

I love to ski, but when the wind chill is -25, maybe not so much. I'll be interested to see how many show up to ski this weekend.

There is a bright disk in the sky. It gives off warmth. Help, I am frightened and confused.

A high in the mid 70s tomorrow in Dallas/Ft Worth. Y'all should think about moving south. Yeah, the seafood sucks. No chowda unless you make your own. You have to subscribe to MLB.tv to see Red Sox games.
But no snow that ever amounts to much.
Pros and Cons folks.
I don't own a snow shovel nor a snow blower. And I'm ok with that, forever.

Yeah, yeah. Curse at me. I don't care. I sat outside with the sun on my face eating seedless watermelon in 60-something degree weather with a Killian's Red to wash it down.
There was an empty chair beside me that was available for any of you that wants to thaw out.

Blah, blah, blah.

I've done S. Fla and ATL for a while too.

Good $$$$ in Waco, TX is an open invite. Sorry TX, you're just a bit too much for me.

Hardcore, I used to "Splash" my Northern Friends from Ft. Laud.
When it snowed, I'd make a phone call from next to the pool.
SPLASH!

I just got "SPLASHED" by a Vegas Window Washer that makes $x
a year

You're a good man Hardcore, I don't care what they say!

"It doesn't snow on Cape Cod"
Real Estate Agents, Chamber of Commerce and people that retire here say that.

Then we get whacked.

40 mph winds getting the newspaper, gorgeous!

My family has been out here permanently since 1638. We figured out how to deal with it.
I'm smart enough to live on land and keep the boat there in the winter as well.
I'll tell you 'Living on the Boat in the Winter Stories' but not from this year!

47 mph sustained wind. My thing doesn't record gusts very well.
Salt on south-facing windows. Cape Cod Bay is .6 mile North. Nantucket Sound is miles farther South.

Driveway and grill shoveled!
I have priorities.

Snow drifts next to the grill are a good place to keep the beer cold. Trust me.

Shivering starts with S but is more than 4 letters. Still...

February 2015 is currently the coldest month on record for Worcester - with the average temperature only hitting 13 degrees, according to the National Weather Service. The second coldest February on record was in 1934 at 14.4 degrees.

Report from the ski area - last week was a US holiday week and school was out at many locations. Ski area attendance was very high where I work in southern New England.

At least 100 or more children under 5 were outdoors skiing with parents in temps of 10F and far (12) below on all days with said temps. Let's add in the NW wind and resultant wind chills at around -10 to - 20 F or so. We the staff were blown away by the kids outdoors at an hour or more at a time, and the topic of cruelty was raised more than a few times by co-workers. We the staff were outside for we "had" to be in order to earn a paycheck. I had on so many layers the Michelin marketing people wanted to photograph me.

Let's ask Mr. Judgmental Oldfart if having children outdoors at 10 F and less for extended periods of time is wrong:

Mr. J. - "Yes."

There you have it, whatever it is.

Anyone in the immediate Boston area know how cold it was there last night?

Apparently my neighbor here in the suburbs, who also has a house in JP, posted a Facebook photo of an outdoor thermometer reading -21. Allegedly F. We don't know where the thermometer in question was.

Meanwhile, my digital weather station, whose sender is on a sheltered porch, says it hasn't been below -2F outside since the last battery change, whenever that was (must be before the summer since the max reading is 89F).

Wind chill, maybe? Do alcohol thermometers read lower in wind?

1000' high Worcester airport was -8 F this morning. I would be skeptical of -21 east of Worcester in Massachusetts. Out in the Berkshire Mountains perhaps.

Yeah. My first thought was that -21 C was plausible, but my correspondent (not the neighbor himself) insists the picture showed -21 F.

I should walk over and ask him, but it's cold outside

2/24/2015 Low Temp
Here is a screen shot of our weather station - temp sensor is located in a ventilated housing off the deck so it is pretty accurate.

It was a brisk -14.9F here in southern NH when I got up this morning.

Our poor cord wood stove is having a difficult time keeping up with the cold.
