      Thanks Dale, I hope I don't need a hair dryer to work on the anesthesia machines on Monday.

      When I run out of beer I'll switch to scotch.

        In a similar chilly vein "Geordie of the Antarctic"...
        It's a famous UK skit.
        I live in 'Geordie-land'.
        Geordies are notorious for going out on the town in mid-winter without coats etc - perhaps they think it's hard, but it's also practical as there is nowhere to leave your coat safely in the late-night clubs, and you can always get a taxi home !
        We've hardly had much of a frost this winter [so far!] - although ~20 miles away there's snow 'on the tops' over 150m altitude, and the weather comes from the West... so worse is coming over from the USA any day soon... 😒

              (Dave I think you missed a bunch of negative signs in your first post.)

              We were at -11F today (-24C). That's pretty cold for us. We're not getting most of this current chill, just a little bit of the end of it.

              Good luck out there Dave!

              Lately you've been tan, suspicious for the winter.

                Wouldn't -55 below be a double negative? 😉

                Thanks for the good wishes. They've called school again for tomorrow because of the cold. It's supposed to be up around freezing for the weekend, though.

                  A sweltering 21 F last night and expecting 18 F tonight. I already went out and euthanized all of my plants.

                  I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

                    Sure, good point Dave. But you put the negative sign in front of the Celsius numbers, so it was visually confusing to me. Eventually I figured it out, but I never actually noticed that you were typing the phrase "degrees below"....I need to learn better reading comprehension 😄

                            well, it was 'warm' here i guess you could say but it was that point where it's raining and it's about 2º too warm to snow.. (i.e.- worst weather ever 😄 )

                              So Pete, did your furnace run continuously?

                              According to Garrison Keillor this weather makes us serious.

                                  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!!!!

                                      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 !

                                          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.
