Feel free to gobble my crank, Jim.

 

[Richard Crowley]

Yeah, but the indicator hand will break off this summer >120F!

Is that 80C or 80K?

We just had a nasty storm front blow through; expect it presently.

Damn! 80mph in the back yard must be a new record. Watch that hairpin
around the end of the pool - I don't want to have to fish you and your car
out of the deep end again.

This is in my neighbours back yard, which joins on to my back yard.

Fortunately it missed the dividing fence and the house.

You got it working again? Nice. Needs that owl perched on it,
though.

Here in PA, the worst day was 6 F, I think. Except up near the
Poconos where the wind at the salvage yard had me thinking I was in
for a bad time. Nah. Pulled the part from inside a van and swiped
some old computer hardware left behind at the same time.

Anyway, I think being out in the midwest showed me what cold and
windy really was, 'cause it hardly dipped below 30 around here
(where I grew up - more conditioning) lately and low 40's is more
like it during the day. Really nice.

But some of the people around here are whining daily about the
cold. Shivering like they're freezing. Just from going from the car
to the office, what, 25 feet, tops? 3 yrs ago it was waaaayyyy
colder during the day.

All I can do is shake my head and laugh 'cause I can stand outside
in shirt sleeves and not shiver, bitch, whine, or complain.

Glad I'm not in Chi town, though.

I think it was last year in Jan, it got so warm, one of the bushes
started to bloom and days later it got cold again. Every now and
then I'll see geese heading back south all pissed off after one of
those temp swings.

It's 12 F winds S 3 mph, now. I think I'll go outside in my bare
feet and rub my soles on the edge of the concrete steps. Used to
jog to the mailbox barefoot in the snow in Chicago - just because I
could. I also swam a half lap in Houston in the middle of winter
Condo Assoc. "Meet Your Neighbor" party. More like "freak out your
neighbor so they won't bother you" >

Well, enjoy your cold snap.

Is the top dial showing relative humidity or wind speed?

I know :-( The prediction for today is 82°F, but 66°F tomorrow.

And the wind is here. It's tossing my backyard right now, like an
illegal police search.

I hope no koalas were harmed during the falling of that tree.

Here in eastern Canada, in Nova Scotia, we're having a blizzard right now
with over 50 cm of snow fall in the last 12 hours....

Hey... nice to e-meet you here on USNET. It happens that I was born in
Halifax, NS... left many years ago, been living in the American South for lo
these past xxxx years.

Today here in Indialantic By-the-Sea, FL on our barrier island, just a few
hundred feet from the Atlantic Ocean beach, we have wall-to-wall blue sky a
few fluffy white clouds, and temperature around 70F. I'm sitting out by the
pool under the lanai looking at the palm trees in the back yard while I type
this posting. Just so that I don't feel too privilidged, I am sporadically
working on a report for one of my consulting clients...

Two weeks ago my cousin and his wife from Shelbourne, NS passed through our
area in their 50 foot schooner on the way to Cuba for the summer. I spent
the evening on board with them while they were swinging at anchor off Dragon
Point in the Bannana River drinking rum and reminiscing about the old days
in dear old Nova Scotia. They departed Key West on Wednesday...

Be careful and don't shovel too much snow *before* the snowploughs pass your
place, eh?

Been so fippin rotten here in Washington, Michigan with the freezin rain,
slush, and over all crappy weather that Ma & I are headed to Hilo for a
thawout. Hopefully by the time we get back the weather here will be better.
BTW I do really appreciate the weather in Sedona, Flagstaff, and Tucson.
Been there a few times, both in the summer and winter. Considering an
alternate living area there also is a possibility.
