    Alright, I've had enough of this cold weather... When does Spring begin!?

    This is from my Accuweather Forcast (may obviously be different if you click on it):

    [​IMG]

    Those temps are in fahrenheit, not metric folks. In metric, the temp now is -24.4º. The windchill is at -25ºf/-32ºc

    Needless to say, my poor car had a REAL tough time this morning.

    Wow, those temps are really something !
    My winter is a Mediterranean one ( these days the min is -4c).

    Yet I prefer cold weather to hot summers (like the last one :( )

    Thank god it wasn't that windy here or it would have been that cold ;

    Pff. No fun. I actually don't mind it like this too much. Yea, it can be a pain when the car refuses to start easilly. That's the main reason I like it in this part of the country - it can get frigid / snowey in the winter and hot / humid as hell in the summer. Maybe not hot all the time, but it has been above 100ºf many times. Other parts of the country are just boring. ;)

    ::EDIT::
    Just checked and it's still -3 outside - it's 1:30pm now which is supposed to be the warmest part of the day :brrr: :rolleyes:

    Lets note; Dad might think hes cold; but; I must claim, I am just as cold, if not colder. Lets goto the map.

    [​IMG]

    if you notice the small red dot in western new york; that is where I live -- right near the lake, providing for a nice lake effect snow every night :grr:. But no, that does not mean I am colder; for the lake keeps tempatures slightly warmer then more inland.

    But if you may, please direct your attention to the cyan dot. That is where I drive every morning for college, to get my nice education. :brrr:

    What is very nice is the fact that the campus (RIT if anyone is interested) - was built for arizona (ie; warm place) -- -so it is intentionally built to create wind tunnells. :brrr:

    With that being said -- I drive in the several inches of snow each morning to goto the wind tunnel i call school, where at, even snot is ice by the time it comes out.
    :brrr:
    Beat that. ;) ;) ;) :hip:

    :edit: the high today was 3 deg F... -16.11111111111111 C for you metric guys.

    Beat that?

    Okay... See where the dot says "Dad"? Well, we get hit with the brunt of lake effect, I drive to nearly the PA state line to go to work and it's still -3 outside :p

    Wow dogg, it must take you HOURS to get to school. That dot must be at least many miles south of where you live.

    edit: actually not knowing how big that state is im not gonna make a tit of myself and gues a number, but im assuming america's huge compared to UK.
