A Wee Bit Chilly

So Pete, did your furnace run continuously?
According to Garrison Keillor this weather makes us serious.

Furnace? I have central air, runs at 72 degrees 365 days a year.

Bloody hell that's cold!!
Bit of contrast here; spent 5 days over New Year sailing the Whitsunday islands on the Great Barrier Reef in North Queensland... 5 to 10 knot winds and 21²C [70²F] minimum during the nights, up to 36²C [97²F] during the day with humidity in the 80's!!Glorious!!!!

Andrew, that sounds like fun although that's a bit warmer than I like.

It seems like most of our European/Romanian weather went to you. At this time of year we should have had the coldest time(-20°C,-30°C ),instead the last three,four weeks it was between 3°C and 17°C. This is very bad for most of the plants and threes because they are flourishing and then the cold will come and goodbye fruits and plants !! At least they say it will come gradually(but still...).
I hope for the best and wish you a warm weather and wish me a proper cold weather ! -
You know its cold when cows seek warmth on your hood.

It was +5°F during my drive home a little bit ago. I just wore my fingerless wool gloves instead of my big heavy mittens.

It's actually quite boring over here in California. Wishing for any sign of rain. A break from all this sunshine...
Boiling water freezes in midair? Someone explain please--must be something other than simple temperature drop...?Hey, nice surf video. Thanks for that. I had no idea the great lakes got waves like that. The surfers were pretty good too. Watching that it's hard to remember it is fresh water.

Although I wear a lab coat at work, I'm no scientist but I expect the reason boiling water flashes to cloud and snow in extreme cold air is related to the fact that the water is less dense than cold water would be and molecules are are more disturbed due to being hot. You can supercool water below the normal freezing point and yet it remains liquid until it is disturbed. You can find videos showing bottles of liquid water that are below 0 degrees C which when tapped on the side, rapidly turn solid.
