FYI - Northern California is stuck in an inconvenient and barely reported cold snap.

Look on the bright side: during the last Ice Age the coastline along Washington and Oregon states was 26 miles further west!

Of course, the islands in Puget Sound were buried under ice and the animals wandering around the eastern parts of the states were wooly mammoth and rhinoceros, but I’m sure it was balmy out on those western beaches. Well, maybe.

Pocatello has had far more subzero days this year than normal. Plenty in the-9F to -14F range. More coming this weekend.

I see around 0-5F right now depending right where you are, but up at Bogus Basin I see it's 36? Must be one hell of an inversion! Here, 220 miles NW of you along I-84 we've been stuck in the 20s for weeks, may break out to 30s tomorrow.

Sposed to get near zero for a high tomorrow... Surfs Up!

It has been just warm enough outside to keep the house at 68 or 69 with three oil-filled resistance space heaters at 900 watts each; haven’t even run the heat pump or furnace except for a few times right at daybreak. The standalone propane fireplace is still hoping for some action but probably won’t get it. If we were at your temp I’d be burning lpg 24 hours a day. Electricity is relatively cheap here and propane, expensive like most places.

So I am using 9,200 BTU/hr to keep the hour at 68 when it is about 26 outside. Not bad for an old doublewide, eh?

“keep the hour” = “keep the house”

Actually a little ways north of I-84 in Washington. We tend to get fogged in (ice fog) for weeks this time of year (curse of the Columbia Basin).

What’s normal there? I’m about 300 miles SE of you and we had a week of temps below zero. Some winters we have a solid two weeks of sub-zero weather 10-15 degrees lower than we just had. Some winters we have no sub-zero weather at all. Some winters we hardly have any snow. Some winters we can hardly dig out before we get some more. Been that way all of my near six decades.

nothign the right says or proves abotu global wamring beign a natural cyclical event matters to the left- the left smells a chance to rob the pockets of everyone htrough high energy prices and carbon taxes, and nothign short of the apocolypse is goign to stop them from extortign money from americans to ‘solve a problem’ that they are not responsible for nor can they fix-

They spotted a golden goose, and now the only thign they can say when presented with the facts is ‘The mass majority of scientists who work on this issue all agree” (but of course if they didn’t agree they woudl lose their federal funds- but alas, apparently only the right is ever guilty of panderign to special interest groups accordign to the hypocrite left)

Truth no logner matters- the IPCC was caught red handed LYING abotu the role of man in global warming, caught red handed intimidatign those who didn’t agree with their lies, and yet thsi president is goiogn full steam ahead on the word of these LIARS

Fighting the left on thsi issue is a lsot cause- the ONLY way to fight that nonsense is if enough Americans band together and REFUSE to send any more tax money into the government for deriliction of duty- If all the government wants to do is rob the peopel while declaring it ‘law’ then the people’s ONLY chance at stopping the insanity is to cut fundign to the govenrment- hell- the government is tryign hteir damdest to cut our funds- Apaprently they think they are the only ones allowed to cut funding?

We normally drop below freezing for a daily high by mid
November. The subzeros normally hit the first week of December, then warms to a range from single digits to low 20’s through mid January. The subzeros arrived just after Christmas and are ongoing.

That sounds like it’s pretty normal there then this year. Every place is going to have some swings of above and below normal temps and precip.

I’m using an oil filled heater in my room in San Diego. We dropped to 37 overnight. The house isn’t built for those temps. Inside was down to low 50’s. The heater fixed my room to 70. The bathroom window remains open. No ice inside, but really cold when going for a shower.

Temp hovering @ 1 degree right now, supposed to drop to -4 before dawn with wind chill factor @ -15.

I'm making a nice hot chicken soup (Greek style egg-lemon) for Dufarge tonight. Good winter chow.
