WTF 9 Degrees?!?

[keg in kc]

I was just about to head outside, maybe take a walk. It looks pretty bright and sunny, thought it might be a nice day. And weather.com tells me it's 9 fucking degrees outside? Fuck you weather.

That is all.

[Bwana]

That's shorts and flip flop weather Kyle. :)

[Katipan]

We're at 8 degrees you lucky bastard.

Was -9 wind chill here, but it's gotten up to a balmy -8. No snow anywhere in the forecast. Which is kind of a shame. I like snow.

Do you guys get a lot of sun? We get a vulgar amount of sun.
Never knew cold could be so gorgeous.

On that note, perhaps these guys could help with your problem? Your ears won't fall off and it will keep your neighbors guessing.

Yeah it's not to bad around here in the sun department, but I'm always game for more.

I'm actually still heading out. No fur hat, comrade!

I've found over the years that it doesn't really matter whether it's 20 or 2, cold is just cold. The worst part is my face, but that's why I have a beard. Couple of pairs of sweats, couple of pairs of socks, keep moving, and it's all good.

[BigRedChief]

We are a big country. Not everyone gets to have consistent 75 degree days in January. :p

Good for you and you're right about the cold once it hits that 20 degrees, below zero doesn't feel much different. The deal breaker comes when there is a stiff wind with those temps.

[keg in kc]

There's always wind here. It's like a goddamn wind tunnel.

Fortunately I can walk a half mile through a tree-covered suburban neighborhood down to a wooded trail along a creek, so the wind is broken up a bit. The positive of no snow is that it means there's no ice.

[srvy]

75 and sunny here. Might hit the beach later.

If beg to differ. I've been cold enough to know the difference. Half hour or so isn't bad. All day is. Particularly if there is no sun and wind. Or water.

[keg in kc]

If beg to differ. I've been cold enough to know the difference. Half hour or so isn't bad. All day is. Particularly if there is no sun and wind. Or water.I'll be out around two hours. That's usually my limit in any conditions. Start to get electronic entertainment withdrawal, twitching like a crack head. LMAO

I'l be moving around though. If it was something like a ball game (just an example, not saying that's what you were describing...) where I'd be sitting still for hours in single digit weather there's no way I'd go outside.

[BigRedChief]

It's January in the midwest, not sure why this would surprise you.

I try to take care of a few of them around my area when I have time, but most to them have decent snow blowers. I had some 16 HP beastly snow blower and I sent it down the road last year. I replaced it with a light weight Toro that weighs in and about a tenth of the weigh and gets the job done. That big one I sold off last year was a real pain to move around.

If we end up really getting drilled, I can always throw a snow blade on one of my ATV's which is also a pain.

We had a retired teacher on our cul-de-sac and he insisted that he use his snow blower to do all of our driveways and the sidewalks. He had been doing that before I moved into the neighborhood. He seemed in shape and loved doing it. He always got a bunch of my wife's homemade fudge at Christmas time.

another layer. Let the car warm up. Turn up the heat.

Last year was worse. Low temp of -25, wind chill of -40.
It makes the 20-30 degree days seem warm

When it hit 50, people were in shorts, riding motorcycles and sweating.

We're at 8 degrees you lucky bastard.

Yeah, but it's a dry cold.

[BigRedChief]

Yep.

This is the tradeoff for 70 degree days in May.

I'll take it.As anyone who has vacationed in Florida during the summer knows, we have to deal with oppressive heat in June-August. It's really not that bad in the shade. But, if you are not in the shade, you had better be at the beach or in the pool. Standing in line for hours on the hot concrete at Universal Studios, Disney, Sea World etc. ouch.:shake:

Our payback is 75-80 degree days Nov.-mid March.

I remember my last winter in KC. After a long snowy week that the sun come out and it was like 35 and I was out in shorts. Now, if it gets below 60 these days, I get cold. No BS.

You can haz. I don't do heat very well. And it never snows here. Very infrequently do I have to deal with ice. Plus, a lot of days in the winter it is 20/40 with sun, and that is freaking gorgeous.

[Buehler445]

If you don't work outside for a living, it's pretty fucking awesome.

Maybe where you are, but not with humidity. I went to college in Emporia and summers there damn near killed my ass. Walking to class and work, even in the morning made me sweat my damned nutbag off. It is flat out miserable being sweaty all day.

And son of a bitch, working out outside is just retarded. I love to ride my bike, and it is just miserable even in the middle of the fucking night in the summer time. I can't imagine living where there is humidity and it never cools down.

Plus, fuck never being able to dry off. Ever.

That's not terribly common though (for KC)... even when the snow starts to pile up, the roads are really only a pain for a day or maybe two.

I had the most miserable drive outside Livingston Montana last night. It took me 40 minutes to go 5 miles on the interstate. Most of the time, I was completely stopped and not sure if I was on the road anymore.

I've been through worse, but it was on 2-lane roads and a snow plow hadn't been through yet. This was on plowed interstate. At one time, I opened my door and couldn't see the road next to the truck.

Can't afford the farmland up there dude.

And tile would fuck up my life.

Country Inn in Benson
Better luck in Wilmar

Welcome to the North Country!

Holy shit, that is in fact where I'm staying. I just looked at their website. If I don't pull a Robin Williams by the end of my stay, it will be a miracle.

[GloryDayz]

That's shorts and flip flop weather Kyle. :)LMAOLMAOLMAOLMAOLMAO Rep!

[Bwana]

..and trees!


:D

p.s. throwing snow fishtails on honda 3 wheelers...AHA!

Yeah and other bad things that can make you go from 50 to 0 instantly. :reaper:

[GloryDayz]

I loved the cold weekend. Spent plenty of time outside! You can't waste this time of year, the summer and the heat will be here soon enough!

Took the younger son on a nature hike looking for deer and other tracks, and even showed him how to make a bird's net and then light it with a flint-and-steel. Never easy without time to dry it, but we persisted and got it going...

[rockymtnchief]

Been there and those drives flat out suck. I'm over in Sioux Falls SD right now and it's one snowy cold son of a bitch. It looks like the winds are going to be picking up for the next few days which means there are going to be some -37 wind chills. I thought Montana was cold, hell I'll likely get home where it's -1 and break out the shorts, wife beater and flip flops.

I worked in WSS last week in -26 weather. I never found out what the wind chill was. Today, the snow was melting and it RAINED! No snow.

Hit-up the bar part of Craford's downtown on the east side of S. Phillips Ave. between 10th St. and 11th St.. That's the bar that showed me how to torch the wood plank to season a glass for scotch...

And Monks House of Ale Repute east of the river on 8th street (literally just a block/1000 feet east of the bridge on 8th street) has a great beer selection and pretty good pizza.

I love that town... It's a lot like Fargo, and that's a good thing...

I would welcome rain right now, :)

[keg in kc]

You can haz. I don't do heat very well. And it never snows here. Very infrequently do I have to deal with ice. Plus, a lot of days in the winter it is 20/40 with sun, and that is freaking gorgeous.I'm with you, it doesn't snow much here and I do not do well in high temps. The only thing I prefer about summer is light lasting until 9 pm. Give me daylight savings year round. Dark mornings are fine, dark at five pm can blow me. All in all spring is my time of year, at least minus the storms. Love 60-70 degree days.

[Fairplay]

I thank my martial arts training years ago to this.
I condition myself to block out the cold it's mind over matter really.
I still wear a coat and all but I find it amusing to see others shaking and it doesn't really bother me at all. I can be out in freezing temperatures for a long time.

Taking my boy to Disneyland. It will be in the 70's. I think like mid to high 70's today.

I was premature with this thread. Forecast high of six tomorrow.

Fuck that. I will stay in Woodside forever, the one exception being potentially San Diego which actually might happen. I like the mountains a lot though so unless I am buying a house on the beach with a pool I am not moving.

[007]

Yep, its cold out there

[Eleazar]

It's 40 in Florida. They might declare a state of emergency.

[notorious]

When I look at our temp of -10 with wind chill, all that I have to do is check temps up north and find that it's not so bad after all.


"But you can put more clothes on!". Yeah, right. Try working in this shit.

[keg in kc]

It's like God decided She wanted me to talk myself out of walking to the gym and biking today.

"Time to start losing weight!"

(Looks outside, sighs, slowly walks to cupboard and grabs a bag of Doritos)

"Fuck it, I will start tomorrow"

[BossChief]

Cold

[AndChiefs]

Cold

They should use that more often. "Models are not agreeing."

It could be anywhere from 35 to 70 today with a possible chance of clouds or sun.

[keg in kc]

LMAO

"Time to start losing weight!"

(Looks outside, sighs, slowly walks to cupboard and grabs a bag of Doritos)

"**** it, I will start tomorrow"Not quite that bad. Today's my first rest day of 2015. 3 bike rides and 3 4-mile walks so far. Was probably good to take a break from the riding anyway, calves had been sore for two days.

No junk food in the house. Still having 12-24 oz of Dr pepper a day, helping me keep my sleep settled, but no candy or cookies or sweets of any kind so far, either. And I'm twitching like a recovering addict because of it.

[Bearcat]

I remember when it was 9. I hope it reaches 9 tomorrow.

I envy you.


If I could pull up my business and move to the south I would. Heat doesn't bother me at all.

[Mav]

Fuck this shit

[Mr. Laz]

3 degrees on mine right now


With a biting ass cold wind to go with it


fuck

[Ragged Robin]

you poor bastards

[007]

This is nothing.

[Pablo]

The residents of which state most frequently remind everyone they encounter from another state where they're from?

A) Florida
B) California
C) Texas
D) Poopstate
E) New York

[Pablo]

This is nothing.It's pretty cold, but yeah, I agree.

It isn't a terrible blizzard that keeps you from driving and I have a furnace. Not like I had any fantastic plans for this mid-week in January that the cold is keeping me from.

This morning was horrible because of the wind, but when the wind is still it doesn't feel too bad out. When I was walking to work an hour ago it almost felt decent enough to go for a run. Granted, after about 10 minutes I may have bailed but....

[Mav]

I work third. So this shit sucks

[BigRedChief]

BTW, I thought of you the other day when I drove through Tarpon Springs.

[Mav]

ahhh, part of my little club.
I love the graveyard, I however do not like this shitty cold.

[keg in kc]

61 degrees right now. Just rode my bike, enjoyed the beautiful clear blue sky. Did not enjoy the cramps or the burning in my legs.

[Titty Meat]

It should be like this everyday

[Three7s]

61 degrees right now. Just rode my bike, enjoyed the beautiful clear blue sky. Did not enjoy the cramps or the burning in my legs.
I think we are warmer than some parts of Florida today.

[Reerun_KC]

63 in OKC today...
Heading out at 3 for a 3-4 mile run...

gonna die I am sure, but man it sucks not being able to run when its dick cold...

gonna die I am sure, but man it sucks not being able to run when its dick cold...I've been biking indoors. Which helped some, but riding outside still about fucking killed me. Lucky to get through 10 miles in the time I ride 13 indoors, and I was wobbly as fuck by the time I got home.

This.....

I took an extended lunch and walked for over an hour...

[chefsos]

I've always thought that I happen to be in a pretty temperate place, relative to some of you guys. And it's true, according to this map. After Hawaii and Florida (Outliers!), the state with the smallest gap between record high and low temperature is...Delaware. Yay, I guess.

[displacedinMN]

The midwest is not for the whimpy.

Had an elderly man tell me the Armed Forces liked people from the midwest. They can adapt easily to the weather and will do almost any work.

It was 40 today. No winter coat, just a lightweight pullover.

[keg in kc]

Well, i guess it can always be worse....
