Wow. Cold in the desert.
 

9 degs. Our eggs froze and exploded. All water frozen. Nuts. I like being "city folk". Camping out here is a test. I slept in a down jacket inside my down bag. Nice view!

Where's the white stuff?

You hiked eggs into the backcountry?

That's nuts!

The only non-dehydrated thing I hike in is beer. And I drink it before it freezes. ;)

I would not want to camp in 9deg. weather. Low 20s is still comfy, but after that it just is a mess.

Good Luck!!!

We have a base camp going. We are hiking out every morning. My feet are dead clumps:)

29 degrees in my driveway this morning. I thought the heated seats in my TDI Jetta would be as useless as tits on a boar here in Phoenix, but I guess I was wrong.

It was 41 this morning in So Cal, I put on a new pair of mechanic's gloves to keep my finners from freezing.

Never thought I'd see this.

I thought it was global WARMING? Now I'm so confused......

Pool water at my place is 53, so it is not going to freeze.

It was very cold in Vegas at the end of CES Friday & Saturday. It was warmer in Toronto when I got home. Here is a pic of snow in the mountains from the 21st floor of the Venetian looking SW.

Back patio this morning @7AM.

We're approximately 7 miles from the beach.

It was 15C here on Sunday (just under 60F). Normally in mid January we're well below freezing. Unfortunately it went back to normal yesterday :(

One of my garden hoses ruptured a day or two ago. The outdoor recording thermometer said it was a low of 27 degrees in the middle of the night. I'm at 1,500 above MSL and about 30 miles inland from the beach.

0 in Minneapolis this morning, put on a flannel and went to work.

My shop has no heater so I backed my car up to my desk! It stayed warm for a little while.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1358291510.jpg

I always thought Comical Ali was dead. Thought I heard he had killed himself after Bagdad fell. Turns out he is alive. He is now living in the United Arab Emirates with his family. Muhammad Saeed al-Sahhaf is his real name.

22 in NE PA. Long sleeve Watkins Glen T shirt and a hoodie. Went for 3 mile walk.
No gloves or wool cap until 0, they retain too much heat.

Heat wave here in Florida. Sweated a LOT today - in my shorts and tank top work clothes. ;)

Got the oranges off my trees yesterday. So cold here in Sacramento, Calif.
How cold is it? The birds won't fly in it. They are all walking, I swear.
Played two 7 inning games today of Softball and we all froze but at least the grass was iced up and no slush & mud.

Yeah, cold in SoCal! I also thought I'd never use the seat warmer in our car but I sure did this morning. Driving to pick up my granddaughter at 7:30 this morning on the 5 freeway, all of a sudden, a dash alarm goes off right at the Ortega Hwy. exit in San Juan Capistrano. I look at the dash and the message reads, "ICE DANGER. OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE 36*"

Didn't even know my car had that warning feature!

Thermometer in my truck said -3 the other day in Fort Collins on the way to the airport to head to New Delhi. It isn't too bad over here and I'm heading south tonight where it will be warmer.

Vash, what are you hunting?

Bill

It was -15F here last week. More on the way!

Huh..... and all this time the CA guys have been claiming how warm it ALWAYS is out there.

[QUOTE=GWN7;7210274]I always thought Comical Ali was dead.QUOTE]

Chemical Ali is now called Comical Ali?????

[QUOTE=tcar;7210612] Chemical Ali was a different guy.......Let me check my cards for his info ..... Ali Hassan Abd al-Majid al-Tikriti was Chemical Ali.....he was hanged

Don't do a cannonball into it, like that German (?) dude on YouTube. :D

Or if you do, make sure you videotape it for us.

Snow didn't melt all week this was AK in Sept
Was 5 deg on the mountain skiing Sunday here

That reminds me of the one time my ice alarm went off in my old 325e.
4:30 in the morning, it's dark as all get out, I'm half asleep driving up the 405 to go to work.
BONG BONG BONG
WTF is that!

Sure woke me up in a hurry.:eek:
Scared the crap out of me.

Red, you don't worry about the pool freezing as much as the pipes, or the pump. Leave it running or drain it .

I think the tangerines are going to be okay, sweet enough they won't really freeze. I got about 40 or 50 pounds. The mandarin is in a container. I put a tomato cage on either side, toss a sheet over it and hang a light in there. Set it between the grapefruit and navel orange tree, pretty sheltered, fairly close to the house

Watering trees last few days, have it going right now as a matter of fact, have to move it in about 10 minutes. The cold stresses them, they will suck up a fair amount of water and perk up pretty well. Thought I messed up with my Meyer lemon a few days ago, but I put some water on it and it came right back.

A couple of friends and I started riding our bikes with lights around the Rosebowl at 8:30 pm after the kids goes to sleep so we can burn some baby fat. My feet and fingers have been frozen since I got out of my truck. Normally, I do not use tights and did not tonight. Now I am thinking twice about going out with them. It must be about 40-45 degrees out.

you have to wear something that will cover your knees, ought to have full finger gloves at those temps too

I had knee warmers on, and have not worn tights in years. I am always able to warm up after 30-45 minutes. Tonights was one of those nights where I was never warm. Getting too old for this crap. Fingerless gloves had to go after tonight..

I hate to say it... But it's summertime around here. I spent the afternoon at the beach :)

My pool has a temp sensor. If the air temp drops to 35F, every pump turns on, including the fountains. 3 years ago we had a bunch of days below 35. I ended up attaching short hoses to the fountain outlets and running them directly into the pool to reduce the fountain noise at night.

:D

We're just bltching. Within a few weeks the temps here in AZ will start trending upward again, and it won't stop until October. :(

Now THAT looks like fun.
