Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler Temps around the world...

Well, yesterday before church it was 54 outside, when church was over an Alberta clipper dipped down and the temp was down to 32....It continued to drop over night and this morning it was a balmy -1 without the windchill. Currently -31F realfeel....

Same here (of course we live in the same metropolitan area). Went to 9AM church, and it was a little above 50 F, got out of church at 10:15 AM and it was 31 according to my car's thermometer.

Took my daughter to school this morning since she had to be there a little early, and it showed -1 F in my car. I didn't even want to know the wind chill.

According to the wether folks yesterday, it was a northern cold front blowing in, so I guess that means that we can blame it on Canada!

Today in Montreal, it's +6C, which means the snow is melting on top of ice... It is a tad slippery...

And I thought this thread was going to be about employment.

4 degrees actual, -17 windchill at this time.

We've been above freezing for a couple of days, so there is a big melt going on. Driveway is water over ice, hunks of snow and ice sliding off the roof and scaring the local rodentia. The snow had condensed down to half its original depth so the snowblower was working really hard even in 6-8" of snow.

I had a double header in rec hockey last night, outdoor.

The temperature was -19F, with the wind chill it was -40F.

That'll teach you to go to church!




(kidding!)

What is it with the temperature change and church this past Sunday? This is an excerpt from an email my uncle from Tulsa, OK sent to me last night..

"Beautiful almost clear afternoon 2:30 PM temp 75 degrees.I had gone up to the church to change the wording on the outside sign. The wind had been very strong out of the South. As I started to change the sign, the wind became calm. Just as I finished the second side of the sign, the Wind changed all of a sudden out of the North at about 25 to 30 MPH. The front hit here at 2:32 PM. By the 5 PM news time, the temp had dropped to 37. By 7 PM it has dropped to about 25 MPH with a wind chill in the teens. Thats a 50 degree drop in temp in about 2 1/2 hours. There is a little moisture in the air, sleet or snow. They are NOT predicting any accumulation. We certainly hope not."

Meanwhile, in south Florida the weather for today and the remainder of the week calls for .... uh, never mind, I really don't care to hear Mark bitching at me again today.

Rick, That is exactly what it was like here in Tulsa. I went into the grocery store for about 30 mintues and the temp dropped like 10 degrees!
