mead107 Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 Had 5 inches come down yesterday. Just shoveled off the deck, had melted down to 2 inches. very windy now.
Buftex Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 Insane that winter has finally arrived. 56 degrees where I am... it was about 40 this morning...you would have thought it was 10 degrees by the way people were acting... Texans are not as hearty as they think they are!

Texans are not as hearty as they think they are! I don't think I really have to shovel. I'm going to try to go a whole winter without touching a shovel!
Steve O Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 I'm in Killington Vt for the weekend. Glad I came up yesterday, someone at the condo said he counted 30 cars on the side of the road stopped with thier emergency flashers on
plenzmd1 Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 (edited) 56 degrees where I am... it was about 40 this morning...you would have thought it was 10 degrees by the way people were acting... Texans are not as hearty as they think they are! i gotta tell ya, I have now lived either in DC or Richmond sinse 86...and as much as i hate to admit it, am soft as marshmellow when it comes to temperature now. In Raleigh this weekend, yesterday was 45 with wind....and just like a little biotch I was cold and putting on coats and such.. Edited January 15, 2012 by plenzmd1
Jim in Anchorage Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Currently -10 in Anchorage 90 inch snow this winter. Buffalo seems like the tropics to me.
BuffaloBill Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Currently -10 in Anchorage 90 inch snow this winter. Buffalo seems like the tropics to me. People not from Buffalo / WNY really don't understand that the winters are not bitter cold. I guess that's also why they also call overgrown ponds "lakes."

In Raleigh this weekend, yesterday was 45 with wind....and just like a little biotch I was cold and putting on coats and such.. But, I live in WNY and go through the same thing every winter (except for this aberration). In the fall, it's holy crap, I can't take this 45 degrees, no way will I last the winter!........A few months later, I'm taking my long walks in 5 degree temps without a problem!.........The body and mind adapt!
