I was unhooking a trailer this morning before I left the house, and I could not believe how cold it was.... Got in the truck, looked at the thermometer. It said 36  That must feel like shorts and t-shirt weather to "you all" yankees.  |

In my west Texas days I deer hunted a few times around the 15-16 degree range and even quail hunted one morning at 10 degrees. It is cold but a different kind of cold as most say. The coldest I have ever been was out there though it was real foggy and icy and 17 degrees. We had metal deer stands and you could spit on the wall and it would roll down about 2" and be frozen solid haha

It is so dang dry here. All the news folks talked about was how much above average rainfall we had for the year. What they didn't say was that reguardless, it hasn't rained since July 4th weekend. Above average or not, it's dry. On a second note, the bank marguite (sp) said 6 at 0820, for a second I thanked God that it was dry this morning, instead of slick. Did see on the news about a bad wreck in Lubbock where someone's sprinklers had ran down the street and iced an intersection. Idiots!  |

i say -56 in forw wainwright, alaska one time. It was so cold I watched a guy's tire roll right off the rim while he was driving.
at forty below you can take a cup of hot tap water. throw it up in the air and it will never hit the ground
thirty below metal + skin = frostbite, and diesel fuel + skin= frozen body part

Canucks and yankees think they are so used to cold. Then why do they all come running down hear in the winter? I remember once I was out out working in sub-sero temps and took my gloves and coat off. I was not paying attention but when I was done I went looking for my gloves and coat. Some yankee said wow you really like the cold. I just looked and said nope I hate it. He looked shocked. So I told him I hate the cold but when things have to get done they have to get done and I hate jackets and gloves more than cold when I am working. The yankees stopped giving me a hard time about being from the South after that. But I saw a girl walk across campus in the snow wearing flip-flops. She said it was nothing at home it got too cold to snow. Now that is just plain crazy! I only get out in the cold if there is a good reason and then I get warm as soon as I can.
This morning my mother-in-law drove by as my son was taking the trash out and fussed that he needed to have shoes on. Then she saw me with no shoes on and fussed at me. I really need to move to a new house quick! I will take freezing temps better than my mother-in-law!
