Daron1965 644 #1 Posted January 26, 2019 As I sit here drinking a cup of coffee, reading my seed catalogs, I decided I had enough of the cold, sleet, snow and ice. I am becoming very jealous of our Southern members, enjoying the sun and warm weather. Is any one else tired of the winter already? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 67,270 #2 Posted January 26, 2019 YYEEESSSSS !!!!!!!!!! Said my honey and I agree. 16 degrees when we got out of bed this morning and the high temperature only got up to about 25. late next week the lows are going to be some below zero for 3 or 4 days in a row again. Yeah. We've talked about it. We may be snowbirds a little later in life..... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHNJ701 4,165 #3 Posted January 26, 2019 I hate it more and more each year, the cold, driving in it, salt killing my vehicles. if it wasn't for our jobs, family, good school for the kids and house, we would be out of nj and in Florida. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm tired of the LACK OF winter If it's not going to be below freezing and adequate snow-pack for snowmobiling , it might as well be 65 and sunny I DO love the transition from late winter into spring though .

Stormin 9,981 #13 Posted January 26, 2019 We don't have the extremes of cold you lads have over there. But I'll be pleased when summer comes and the rain gets warmer. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SylvanLakeWH 25,490 #14 Posted January 26, 2019 Sorry, gotta go against the tide here... In the immortal words of Warren Miller: "If everyone skied, there would be no war..." Our only problem in SE Michigan this year - no snow to speak of...Hopefully that will change Monday if forecasts are correct!!! Added bonus = seat time!!!

953 nut 55,070 #15 Posted January 26, 2019 Well down here in SUNNY Franklin NC it was 28 this morning and only got up to 40. Talked to @19richie66 down in Florida and he is suffering through a brutal 50 degrees! However, we will be getting snow on Tuesday and are likely to be at or below zero on Wednesday. Hay Jim @WHX21, is that Zuehls Heating and AC guy any good? 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ClassicTractorProfessor 5,314 #16 Posted January 27, 2019 I've made that same comment myself the past few days, we don't get near the cold down here that you fellas up north get, but several mornings of waking up to temps around 18 is starting to get old. Might not mind it so much if we had some snow to play in, but its just cold dry air. And to think last September when we were in Nebraska I tried talking Angel into us just staying up there, What was I thinking Talked to her brother in law up there last week, it was 18 here that night and he said temps were already down around -4 there. I'm ready for summer to be back, I'd say I'm ready for spring but we don't get those here, it goes from being 30s and 40s one week to 90s and 100s the next Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Richie, check out our forecast here for next week. -12 F Tuesday night, -17 Wednesday night. Then there's always the "wind chill factor" which is an unknown at this point. So, us Yanks don't want to hear any sad stories about a high of 58 F. If you plan on moving to NC in the not too distant future, a new wardrobe will be one of your first consumer purchases..... https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?CityName=Gas+City&state=IN&site=IWX&lat=40.4892&lon=-85.6077#.VNKYzZUg99A 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bc.gold 3,403 #23 Posted January 27, 2019 (edited) Central Canada -26C and it's time to blow more snow. When its this cold the Dodge has to be plugged in before it will start but the Onan CCKB on the Simplicity 9020 has never let me down regardless of how cold it gets.

Make sure you get enough land to build something around "indoor arena" sized. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
