    It's strange how our human bodies work differently. The older I get, the more I despise the cold. When I was young, I didn't mind it, but as I got older I started to dislike it. Now I flat out hate it. If it's really cold, it can be downright painful, but in general, I just hate bundling up anymore, and love the freedom of a short sleeve shirt and shorts/jeans. As for the snow and ice, that's a trucking thing. If I worked inside and just had a to and from work commute, I'd probably somewhat like snow

    Different story up here. With a high of only 66, it was more of a damp feeling than a humid one. Borderline jacket weather for me. As for rain, only 0.01" so far.
  3. Voyager
    Yup. It's getting quite old... And yet ANOTHER semi crappy weekend day today. Chilly, damp and drizzly.

    Got a surprise shower with some thunder a few minutes ago (4:30AM). Picked up 0.02"...lol

    This is true. It's much cooler in Tamaqua, then adding in that a lot of my work puts me in Hazleton, which is even colder than Tamaqua, and you can see my frustration. Also, a malfunctioning thyroid makes me even more cold intolerant, and there you have it. A perfect recipe for complaining. So I too will apologize. Perhaps I need to tone it down and respect other folks' likes and preferences.

    And another thing, and yes, I'm a bit feisty this morning, but what can make this forum unreadable at times isn't the complaining about heat or cold, but the sports (basketball) posts that litter this place up from time to time. Those belong in the banter thread.

    Take out those anonymous near 90 degree days (which even I don't necessarily want in April) and it wouldn't have been.

    Sorry you feel that way, but it's about consistency. I don't need a torch, but I, like most people, don't really want frost and freeze warnings this time of year, nor windy -10+ to -15 daytime departures. Give me 45/65 and I'm quite fine with that.

    Just a random one-off in this decrepit cold spell. I was just outside and needed my winter coat because in addition to the cold, the wind had to ramp up as well.
  10. Voyager
    Yeah, I was quite surprised this morning. It's 38 now, but was 41 when I first woke a 4am. Yes, I'm an early bird and can't sleep in even on my days off.

    I didn't know it was going to rain all night. Picked up another .17" from this little event.
  12. Voyager
    Ended up with another .11" from last nights little rain event. Sitting at 36 this morning, so perhaps a light frost in colder areas closer to sunrise.
  13. Voyager
    It started raining again here (Tamaqua) around 5:30pm. Hasn't stopped since

    Anyone seeing rain/drizzle? Up here in wretched Hazleton today, and of course I'm getting rained on. If there's one place I hate, it's Hazleton. The weather is always shitty in one form or another up here.
  15. Voyager
    52 degrees...ugh. Too damn cold.
  16. Voyager
    I see in my forecast that the upcoming weekend is already trending colder. Saturday was 57 yesterday, now today it's 53.
  17. Voyager
    Finished with .77" yesterday. None since midnight.
  18. Voyager
    Very depressing...
  19. Voyager
    My forecast for tomorrow just keeps getting colder and colder... Saturday Showers. High near 44. East wind 6 to 8 mph, with gusts as high as 22 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%
  20. Voyager
    Yes I am. Three grandkids. One 18, one 16, and one 12.

    Not really upset about the rain, although it will mess up a rare opportunity to see one of my high school senior grandson's baseball games, which will likely be postponed. We need it. It's the temperatures, which once again drop down into the mid 40's making for a wreched day... Saturday: Rain. High near 46. East wind 6 to 8 mph, with gusts as high as 22 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%. New precipitation amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible.
  22. Voyager
    Sitting at 77 at 4:30pm

    25 here at the house, but looking at PWS's nearby, the coldest in the immediate region is down in the Lizard Creek valley near Andreas and my company HQ. There a station is recording 19 currently.
  24. Voyager
    Yes, the rain is needed, but not the windy 40's. This isn't early March, either. Upper 50's to low 60's would be plenty comfortable.
  25. Voyager
    Nasty day so far. Rainy, raw, and of course...windy.
