The kids thought they would get another "snow day" for the cold today.

:watchsnow:

But the school district wised up and made them go today since it was not snowing and they had already heated the building.

:school:

HA-HA

A bunch of schools are closed here because of the cold. It was -16 F when I got up and it's -4 F now. Feels the same to me. :shiver:

The kittehs are hanging out on the radiator, which is pumping out heat but barely making a dent in the cold.

I am so over this. Is it spring yet?!

And hey, I can complain because I live in The South(tm). We're not supposed to be this cold, this often, this brutally.

So ... Wa-a-a-a-a-a-ah!

Mother Nature's just fucking with us now. It was -18 yesterday. Today it was 30 (heat wave!) and it snowed again.

Tomorrow is supposed to have a high of 4, then it's going to bounce up to 16 on Sunday (when we go check out the Saintly City Cat Show :catwave:).

And Monday it goes back to -13.

The high today was 64ºF, up 60ºF from yesterday morning's low. It is supposed to be 64 tomorrow too, then "back in the cooler, Hogan."

The high temperature today was 60ºF higher than yesterday morning's low of 4ºF. 64ºF is also expected to be the high tomorrow, though some forecasters say we could hit 70. Then we're back in the deep freeze Monday and for much of the week.

the weather channel wished to EMPHASIZE THE FORECAST

WIND CHILL VALUES ARE EXPECTED TO PLUMMET INTO THE 40 TO 60 BELOW ZERO RANGE AT TIMES LATER TONIGHT INTO TUESDAY MORNING. AIR TEMPERATURES WILL DROP INTO THE 20S AND 30S BELOW ZERO IN MUCH OF THE NORTHLAND. STRONG NORTHWEST WINDS WILL MAKE CONDITIONS DANGEROUS FOR OUTDOOR ACTIVITY.

69ºF.

Tomorrow morning's low, 15ºF. Ugh. I'm sick of this roller-coaster ride.

since dec 1, we have had 27 days of high temps below zero…

this morning when i went out to do barn chores it was -19 with a windchill of -44… it hurt to breathe!

we had to make a poop path for the dogs because they cannot stay out as long as i need to stay in order to get the chores done…

the second picture is a snow/ice clump that formed under the hoof of one of the horses…. these clumps are all over the barn and the paddock… it makes walking so difficult for them

There are many phases I don't like to read on a hazardous weather outlook statement. This one, from today's has just moved near the top of the list.
Quote:
TEMPERATURES WILL RISE INTO THE SINGLE DIGITS THIS AFTERNOON.
On the plus side, this morning you could see tiny ice crystals reflecting the sunlight if you were facing the right way. At first I thought maybe I was nuts when I walked out of the doctor to what looked like air filled with tiny mirrors. Then I saw the same effect through the bank window. It may be cold enough to kill you quickly, but it is very pretty.

And Doge says it's "Very Popsicle."

We got 2" of snow here. We're not set up to deal with it. People have been stranded all over metro ATL. I've never seen it like this before. To give you an idea, here's a link to a FB page someone set up to help stranded motorists find shelter.

All the businesses and schools let out at the same time today. It took me about 2.5 hours to get home from work, a total of 3 miles.

There are still kids stranded at schools.

This is the part where I pat myself on the back for deciding not to drive into town this morning. Foresight! I haz it!

I'm especially loving everybody crying on facebook about the university not having closed early enough. You have free will and the weather channel, kiddos. Nobody made you drive in.

Yeah I've got a Georgia Tech pal spending the night in his lab and there's a facebook group trying to connect stranded people to places offering shelter.

I felt like such a lazy shithead this morning when I called in on the mere possibility of snow. You would not believe how hard I'm patting myself on the back now.



Plus no school tomorrow. :wriggle:
