fairfarmhand Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 I am SO jealous. We had cold wet misery...with freezing rain so that I slipped and fell on our stepping stones... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giraffe Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 I'm here with you Aubrey (DFW). It feels weird, not Christmas-sy at all, especially when the rest of the country is so cold. But they are making noises about snow for tomorrow, maybe, possibly.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoVanGogh Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 We spent four hours at the park yesterday with our homeschool group. The kids had so much fun playing in a huge pile of leaves. It was such a beautiful day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Crown Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 [smug mode] It was close to 80 here yesterday, too. Yesterday morning, we got a warning e-mail from ScotRail*: "We're working to get trains back into service following damage caused by frozen blocks of packed snow and ice falling from undercarriages and bouncing back upwards. This involves repairs and comprehensive safety checks. In the meantime, some trains will have fewer carriages." [/smug mode] *We signed up to Travelline Scotland when we were visiting St Andrews over the summer, and are still apparently on their list.

Aubrey Posted December 16, 2010 Author Share Posted December 16, 2010 It was "feels like" 7* here - wanna trade? ;) We had almost a record # of days this year over 100. So, yeah, I wanna trade! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leav97 Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Our "feels like" temp was -32 on Monday morning. I don't think you want to trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanceXToo Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 I wish the same could be said for here. It's in the 20's. I'll take 80's over freezing any time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaillardia Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 (edited) I saw 82 yesterday, I felt it too. It was beautiful and I still don't have any lights up or a tree! It doesn't last long, I thought I missed the snow of the mid-Atlantic, but it was 21 today where we used to live. And snowing.:001_smile: Edited December 17, 2010 by gingerh clarification Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarreymere Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 We ought to do a homeschool house swap! We have two feet of snow on the ground, are surrounded by woods, and heat with a wood stove. Just the thing for those of you who long for snow for Christmas! However, DH and DS19 must remain, but they are useful for chopping wood and all you have to do is feed them occasionally! The woodstove is our only heat source, and our bedroom is at the end of the house. The cold is great for sleeping in, but taking a shower is not for the faint of heart. I do appreciate having four seasons, but I wish DH would cave in and allow a kerosene heater or something in the bathroom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
