Z Factor Posted January 1, 2008 Share #5 Posted January 1, 2008 At 27 degree, it is like the ice age to us. Granted it does not get that cold down here, but still who wants to deal with freezing temperatures. Heck that is why we pay extra to live live instead of suffering like everyone else.

Marcarl Posted January 1, 2008 Share #6 Posted January 1, 2008 The more noise they make, truth or fiction, the more people watch, the more they watch, the more ads they see, the more ads they see the more ads are generated, all the more reason to build up a good story and the cycle starts all over. Ya,,,,,,,,, something like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dano Posted January 2, 2008 Share #16 Posted January 2, 2008 Sounds like a 2nd gen gear whine down there in Fla! I'll be outside in 19f high temp tomorrow setting up new parking lot lights for a customer. Any you guys down there want to come help? I'll save some coffee for you! :rotf: Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozmonster Posted January 2, 2008 Share #17 Posted January 2, 2008 Hell, I'd take 59F anyday right now, we had 10" of snow on the front lawn yesterday, woke up this morning to a fresh dumping of another 8-10", and a lovely -10C without wind chill. Don't know the conversion on that, but I'm sure somebody will post it. On Friday I'm heading to the high artic, northern tip of Baffin Island, average temp during the day is -30C without wind chill, and only about 3-5 hours of daylight each day, and won't be home till end February. I'll take that Florida chill anytime, LOL. But, I guess that's why we're called the frozen chozen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Older... Posted January 3, 2008 Share #20 Posted January 3, 2008 Even with the supposid severe water shortage we were told (ordered) to keep the water running a trickle all night to help prevent frozen water pipes. Yup it's cold here, the predictions were right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skid Posted January 3, 2008 Share #21 Posted January 3, 2008 Its about 17 degrees and 4 to 5 inches of snow here. I heard from my brother yesterday, and he is docked in Florida waiting for the winds to settle down before sailing on down to the Bahamas for the winter..... I hate that too.
