Global Warming? One of the coldest winters on record. 11 degees this morning at my house in Woostock Ga.

yaris-me · 01-16-2009, 10:43 AM

It's 6:45 am and 73F in Anaheim. Sorry.

Global warming exists. You have to look at the overall trend. This cold-snap is what you'd probably call "an outlier".

Anyhow... that's colder than Ottawa's been... we're only hitting -30C each night.

thebarber · 01-16-2009, 12:16 PM

doc zaius is right

as for turning up the heat in the house? well, the mudroom area is above an unheathed cold room....so it always reads colder there....

but i set the house at 15C regularly....stays a bit warmer than that....but electric heat ain't cheap! bill last month was $360 for hydro

I once skied at Alta Utah when it was -40f. It didn't matter what I wore that day, I froze and got a nip of frostbite on mt toes.

Yep, global warming does exist. It might be cold now, but wait until next week when temperatures are back up to -1C. I've only lived in Saint John for one and a half winters, but when it snows one day, then rains the next, it's a global warming thing.

Yeah, IMO, once it hits -20C, I can't really tell the difference anymore. It could be -40 or -20, I can't tell...all I know is that it's freggin' cold.

thebarber · 01-16-2009, 03:05 PM

once youre into the high -20's i notice a big diff....makes your throat feel scratchy when you breathe thru your mouth. everything is stiff....snow gets crunchier.....jacket gets hard/stiff....my beard freezes super quick (from my breath) and my ear lobes (which stick below my touque) get real cold real quick

gid · 01-16-2009, 04:27 PM

ouch , that's cold . Other theory is more clouds due to pollution could lead to colder temps. I think that's what I read . Just go with the flow

PreciousPups4U · 01-16-2009, 04:39 PM

It was 18F on my porch at 6:45am this morning. That is really cold for here. Tonight they are calling for 8F. I have never seen it this cold here. I think they say it will break a 40 year record if it gets that cold tonight.

Of course I know it doesn't compare to those -20 and worse, but this is the South. We ain't suppose to have to deal with single digit temps!

Here in Italy we have a small cold period these days...

this morning I couldnt see over 30 metres, and the temperature never goes over 10°C.

Pfffff stop complaining. I went out sun tanning
