I’m enjoying -19 temps, -13 yesterday. The cats and dogs are going stir crazy, except my Husky, she loves. Oh, this is NE Washington.
It is time to cook Chili, Turkey noodle soup, big ol pots of beans.
Gosh I love it when the stove not only warms the house but perfumes it and feeds us as well.
Just checked the forecast for where my sister-in-law lives in Montana. Currently -29 but warming quickly to -15 to -19. Had to laugh at that one.
Freezing in San Antonio. I think we are at a point in history where we can declare the Global Warming crowd the winners and now have them explain the coming ice age and what they plan on doing about it since this is their fault.
Someone needs to go on O’Reilly and do it.
I’ll try not to rub it in...but here in SoCal...9:43 am...its 43 degrees...yeah I know balmy. I have a fire going in the woodstove, while I’m wrapped in my warm snuggy robe and bunny slippers, drinking my morning coffee. And i ain’t budging from this spot. I’m freezing!!!
Cover the outside faucets and drain the yard hoses.
Cut the water off at the main connection and run the water in the house so there’s no water in the pipes to freeze and burst. Of course, that won’t help much when the toilet can’t be flushed.
Looks like the freeze will be here for a week.
Much better here in north Florida. Low 70’s at 1:00PM
When your spit or whiz hits the ground, frozen, you know it’s at -40F, or worse.
We put out suet for the birds, too. We usually have lots of birds at the feeders but not the last few days. It’s too cold for them to leave their nests. The cat that’s been hanging around was waiting for me to bring him food a few minutes ago when I usually have to holler for him to come in from the woods. We made him a bed but he’s not using it.
Damn you.... :-)
Yikes! It’s 55 here in Charlotte. Wind Chill factored in is probably 54.
Keep Warm
1. Most ALL of the so-called "greenhouse gas" is WATER VAPOR! Unless someone has found a way to stop evaporation from the oceans, lakes, rivers and streams, the TRANSPORATION from trees and other plants, that situation will be with us...all together now...FOREVER.
2. By photosynthesis, plants take in CO2 and give back the O2 humans and animals REQUIRE for life. Reduce CO2 and plants perish. Increased CO2 = more plant life, ergo MORE O2! It's a rather stable balance.
3. One MAJOR volcanic eruption spews more vapor and other "greenhouse gases" into the atmosphere than MAN HAS PRODUCED SINCE MAN HAS BEEN ON THE PLANET! I have yet to hear a serious legislative proposal BANNING VOLCANIC ERUPTIONS!!!
(I suggest these frantic "greenies" gather at the upper rim of the next major volcanic outbreak to study the "problem" up close and personal. Now THAT would solve many of our problems!)
There's a lot more but I think you get the idea!
If you want to understand how that works, reread "1984" by Orwell. It's all laid out there.
No, the major element controlling our climates is the SUN. "Global warming", "climate change" or whateverthehell new name these idiots and grant money whores come up with is how THEY seek to CONTROL ALL OF US!!
You were in the Navy sub service? Didn’t know that. Thanks for your service.
We’re at 29 right now, I think we were low 20’s last night. We’ve not had it as bad as most— I suppose our weather is mild by comparison.
Yeah.
Direct support rider.
Great minds. That's my exact menu this week.
Mr Bachert,
We at Free Republic know this. Liberals are insane. We know this.
It is still raining in the Rain Forest. We know this.
The Ozone Hole is Pornography. We know this.
Polar Bears can swim. We know this.
Muskrat Love is a crappy song from the 70’s. We know this.
Global Warming is Bullshit. We know this.
Corn gas is Bullshit. We know this.
Sale of Charcoal is outlawed in the desert. We know this.
I’m getting tired of thinking of liberal crap. I know this.
I thank you for making sure we know this.
RR
Yeah buddy!
Don’t you love when it’s 85 one day and 20 the next.
