Baby it's Friggin' COLD outside

[imusa76]

Currently it's -8 F and I'm located in the center of a blizzard with winds at 30 - 40mph (visibility on my street is maybe 100 yds) with snowfall expected to be 2 -3 inches per hour. Travel bans are in effect. I'm actually south of the city - West Seneca / Orchard Park southtowns

Good thing I had not planned on taking the convertible out for a cruise anytime soon....

Bill, is that where they are predicting 6 feet of snow?

I woke up this morning to a frozen water pipe in our master bedroom shower. I had the sinks trickling water last night, but never thought to do it in the showers too.

Good point! Curious - is that shower wall against an exterior wall?

Amazing when you think of it. Bill is about 90 min to 2 hrs away we have the freezing cold but not nearly as much snow. If I had been one of the first settlers in Buffalo I would have been gone after the first winter. You guys always get hammered with the systems off the lake.

Yes, and it only froze after it spit to go one way to the sink and the other to the shower.

We turned up the thermostst and put a space heater in the bathroom... A couple hours later we were all good.

Started the morning with a trip to the (detached entrance) basement to relight the pilot light on my hot water heater. Thankfully it had warmed to 4 degrees Fahrenheit by then! Garage door seal was frozen to the pavement and buckled the upper door brace before it finally broke free (Insert curse words here-trust me they will be inadequate to truly convey my feelings at that point)

When was Nashville ceded to the state of Alaska?

Don't be feeling too bad, our skies are clear and blue and we are going to have a high in the double digits (12 degrees woo hoo!)

I'm tired of being tired, I'm sick of being sick; I don't need everything to work out now, but I wish it would, real quick.

ahhh the good ole days "boys ...go out and gather some firewood for in the morning" as a 10 year old I'm saying to myself WTF... I dont want to go out there...its COLD NOW!! Well what I was learning was "be prepared"

Because getting up and you throw off those quilts... it was eFF'N COLD!!!! and to wake up and without warning to go out in the cold at 5 am and GET EFF"N FIREWOOD was WORSE!!! than getting it the night before.

I miss the ole Tennessee winter nights
