Global Warming Arrives

[GaryHibbert]

Well it appears global warming has finally hit Alberta. This morning, when I got up at 5:30 it was -39 with a wind chill of -46. By 2 o'lock in the afternoon, I switched to a t-shirt and shorts--it was only -34 and starting to cool down to a more reasonable temperature.

Can't even begin to imagine.
Experts say we're gonna hit 80 this week

Good thing for global warming, it might of hit 70 below without it.

That's chilly Gary. Crap is coming my way, not quite that bad. -25° tonight with a high of -16° tomorrow.
Just got done cleaning up the back side of the house , 18" dumping we got. Had to do the roof as sewer vents and other vents all buried.

Still got driveway to contend with tomorrow ( I need an apartment ) lol

Can you please just be selfish and keep it all to yourself! Sad thing is I kinda want some snow...want to try out my son's new snowblower! I cheat and use tractor and or skidloader.

My tractor is sitting in the barn with a hay spear hooked up, but the grader blade is right behind it, just in case it's needed. The heck with standing in the snow trying to hook it up if I need it.

 

[pineywoods]

The bucket is on my skid steer just in case of course it would have to get out of these 80's I was in it a couple days ago had to have the ac on

 

[DougE]

Rub it in, why don't ya It's been unseasonably warm here in Kentucky, but it won't last.

Had a cousin and his two young daughters up from Florida for Christmas, should have seen their faces light up when it snowed just a little! Was fun watching them go play in it.

18"?? Man that is UGLY!! The most we've had in one go is about 12", and that was too much.

I work outside a lot with my job. Granted, Missouri doesn't get the crazy temps that Gary has right now, but the coldest day that I had ever worked outside in was -15F with hardly a breeze and sunny. On a personal basis, as long as it was covered up, it wasn't that bad. The equipment, on the other hand, did not like it one bit.

34F windy and and sleeting is the worst IMHO.
