  1. I don't remember my forecast low, but 24 is my backyard low this morning. Tonight's forecast low is 22, so we'll see. My point forecast did add more ice on top of the 1-2 inches of snow/sleet expected. New numbers as of last check seemed like .1 to .3 ice accretion.
  2. Me too, which is why I'm following this despite the fact that its not good for my mental health. I'm in a precarious place as it is. The past two and a half years have been hell. Perhaps if they didn't have such a negative effect on my job it wouldn't be so bad. I'm outdoors 60% of my shift. The trucks don't like that kind of cold, especially the business end of loading and unloading.
  3. No, not again... Why would anyone want this? I love summer and heat, but I don't want 100 degrees. I'm quite happy with 80. Can't figure out why anyone would want painful, extreme cold air.
  4. That's easier said than done. If I want to escape my winter misery, I have to divorce my wife because she isn't going anywhere.
  5. Good God... I'm beginning to think I really should have taken the big D and stayed in Arizona.
  6. Geez. Another plane crash. This one in NE Philly. https://www.facebook.com/share/19qjB6ok93/
  7. Wow. Similar situation here last week. Wife got sick over the snowy weekend, then gave it to me two days later. Same flu type A that you have. Totally kicked our asses. I'm still not 100% recovered. I'm not contagious, or sick anymore, but lingering fatigue and a raspy voice remain.
  8. I started the winter thread hoping to bring good snow chances for you guys. It didn't work quite the way I wanted it to. It brought some ridiculous cold, but not much in the way of storms. I don't mind the snow as much as I hate the cold. That extreme cold did me in, and now I'm in full blown spring mode. It didn't help that I got the flu right in the middle of the arctic outbreak, so I've been somewhat miserable. I'm over the flu itself, but residual fatigue, a raspy voice, and mental changes remain.
  9. Being a warmanista on a snow/cold weather forum sucks... The best weather discussion lives here on these forums by a bunch of great folks, but everything is at odds with my own personal weather desires.
  10. 6am Tamaqua obs: 18.5 degrees in my backyard with some crazy local variations.
  11. One that I hope is wrong. I can't deal with that kind of cold anymore. It sucks that to stay married, I have put up with temperatures I abhor.
  12. What is HH, and which airport code is THV?
  13. Another below zero morning here. Currently -1 in the backyard.
  14. Yes. Way too cold. I don't mind highs upper 30s to mid 40s, and low 25+. I'm seriously thinking of quitting my job and trying to find something that isn't affected by weather. Stressing about snow, and as a water hauler, the frigid cold, is just wearing on me. At 57 years old though, and trucking for over 30 of them, not sure who would hire me to start a new career.
  15. I am really regretting moving back to Pennsylvania.
  16. Just to add insult to injury (although it may actually be a blessing in disguise) but now I've got the flu. Wife got it first over the weekend, and of course now I picked it up. She's still home sick, so I guess I have a few days of feeling like I was hit by a freight train. This sucks...
  17. Pretty incredible... Check out this downtown Houston camera.
  18. I'm at -4, but down by my work it's -15 there, too.
  19. Halfway between our work shop and the well we load at. This was at 11:45pm on my way home in the Jeep.
