Pete M Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 last I checked it was 19* out with a strong wind here near atlanta. Tonight is going down to 8*! I'm house sitting for friends and their home is insanely drafty. spent the morning caulking windows. lol. I've been in crappy cabins that were better suited to the cold! good thing is they have a gas furnace. I'm about to go run out and check on my folks (heat pump plus wood stove) and probably chop up more wood. at least the snow missed us. how is everything with you guys?

jpnjake Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Today has not been cold but still eventful, today I was awoken to my dad telling me that the neighbors shelter logic had uprooted Itself from the ground and landed ontop of my enclosed trailer. We had to open up the shelter and back the MJ up to pull it out into the front where it would be safe. The winds were insane this morning and the trees were swaying like crazy. It has been pouring all day. Hopefully I can put my trailer back behind the house with the 2wd MJ. The mud here is insane. Also high of 25 tomorrow even tho it’s 54 currently. Everything should be good and frozen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NHMJXJ Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 I'm not far from @jpnjake ... lost power around 5:00am and I don't have the generator hooked up. Cold shower and went to work. It was like Armageddon on the way in, with branches down all over the roads and windswept rain. It's over 50 degrees with 40-50mph gusts and a forecasted 1-3 inches of rain. Meanwhile they're reporting that after this front, the temp will drop into the teens for the next few days. On a positive not, I'll take the rain over snow.

saveevryjp1998 Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 We might be breaking records today in Indy for lows. Last I checked the news, high was holding at -1 and low was -9. Then the wind chill gusts down anywhere from -30s to low -50s. I miss living by the lake, it stayed way more consistent temps. We get crazy temperature swings here often some years quickly going 60* swings a couple a times a week. I've been on motocross tracks riding dirt bikes early January with near 70* degrees to 0* 24 hours later snowmobiling. We've also had several winters here without a trace of snow or the ground ever freezing. It's tough on the gardens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogmorgo Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Comparatively warm day up in Winnipeg. -22°C, although the wind has some bite, -37. Just picked up the ZJ from the airport where it’s sat for nearly two weeks. Cranked a little slow but fired up under its own steam, although I’m learning the charging system doesn’t have the jam to run both the headlights and rear defroster at idle… trying to decide if that’s something I should be concerned about or if maybe the battery is just discharged from sitting. I definitely chose the wrong week for doing laps across western Canada but only 300km to get the ZJ home and I’ll have finished moving. Hope you guys are all doing alright down south. I know this is ridiculously cold for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecodemonk Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Was -12F a couple of days ago here in eastern WA. Up to a nice balmy 16 this morning though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ωhm Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 I've always enjoyed winter through a window. Current temp; 1° wind chill -18°. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89 MJ Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 I think the lowest I’ve seen here in WI is -16. I’m ready to go back to AZ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olddude Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 11 degrees F here this morning. I think the low was 9. It's 9:51 a.m. and up to 13 F. That's pretty cold for middle Georgia. The good news is, it's a bright sunny day today, not windy like yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpnjake Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 After the blazing hot 54 day of rain yesterday, everything flash froze pretty much, the ground is rock hard, but the roads were hit hard with the salt to stop the freeze. Currently it’s 12 with a low this morning of 7. Gotta love New England 47 degree temp drop overnight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minuit Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 -2 with a WC of -18 the night before last, and a little warmer today. Rolling power outages for part of the day because TVA can't keep up with demand. Of course, we have gas heat and are literally using no more electricity than any other time but we still get to pay the price while Nashville's football stadium stays lit up all night. Boo.

rokinn Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 If the reports are correct we got down to -18 and a wind chill of -40. Not a lot of snow though, 4 inches or so. Had surgery on my hand this week so shoveling with one hand was just a little challenging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acfortier Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 Had a tree fall on my newly built fence in my backyard on Friday. Merry Christmas to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pizzaman09 Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 We got down to about -5 deg F here in Erie, PA. Lucky for us the wind is sending the lake effect snow to Buffalo. Unfortunately, Buffalo is getting slammed again. Only about 5 inches of snow here, though it is the finest driest snow I can ever remember as it's so cold.

89 MJ Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 It’s 68 and sunny in Tucson, if that makes any of you feel better. Really though, this is why I left Wisconsin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
