nerdgirl 0 #56 January 7, 2010 Yes. And it’s snowing, i.e., barely perceptible flakes falling in downtown ATL. I’ve been watching the ice build up on the fountain in front of my loft over the last 3 days. Was watching an icefall build at the pool … was thinking about pulling out ice axes and crampons … but someone knocked it off yesterday afternoon. /Marg Act as if everything you do matters, while laughing at yourself for thinking anything you do matters.

nerdgirl 0 #58 January 7, 2010 Quote Supposed to get to -54°F with the wind chill tonight. The coldest day around here I experienced was -84°F with the wind chill. I spent 12 hours outside working setting bolt patterns for the AA cargo facility at O'Hare. The natural temperature was -28°F I remember one winter, 1999 I think, when I was living in downstate Illinois. One morning it was 50 degrees warmer than it had been 24 hours before. And it was only, 25°F the 2nd morning. /Marg Act as if everything you do matters, while laughing at yourself for thinking anything you do matters.

Andy0689 0 #64 January 7, 2010 Marg, Too bad it's not cold enough for this. I really want to learn to ice climb. We're finally getting the much anticipated flurries here in Atlanta (south side).

If you're interested in learning, that's a great place to start. They 'farm' the ice out there. Lots of routes of varying difficulty.

DrewEckhardt 0 #67 January 7, 2010 Quote West Texas... 10:30 AM and 24 degrees. Clear and sunny!This is supposed to be the coldest winter for the U.S. in 25-yrs.! Chuck No. Here in Silicon Valley it's currently 56 F. Yesterday I rode my bicycle to work and back home at 11pm wearing just shorts and a T-shirt. (I started home with a jacket but got too warm). Usual daily highs are around 60 degrees this time of year with over-night lows about 40 degrees. The weather forecast is 58/40 today, 61/40 tomorrow, 61/41 Saturday, 63/43 Sunday. Quite pleasant. Average high temperatures in July are about 80. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
