Bitter in Boston this morning.  Wore a heavy sweater over my turtleneck, and my parka over all.

good luck and don't die.

Here in the UK because the temp was below 0 for 7 days in a row, the government has to pay people on benefits an extra £25 a week which costs them many millions apparently. Bloody good humour that considering the mess they're in

Luckily, for work, I go from heated garage to heated garage.  ;D

Taking Kimi out for her shots tomorrow. It will be 10 below zero (Celcius), or 14F.

ezodisy

sure it gets that cold here. How else are the English so cold-blooded?

Dr. Dread

So...how does global warming work?  ???

Its 5 + degrees Celsius, after 2 weeks of frost with temperatures going down as far as 22- degrees.

I think we need a clarification here.

In the US, when people say "below zero", they mean "below zero F", which is about -19C.

For the rest of the world, "below zero" means "below freezing", which is zero celcius, but 32F.

karlhenning

Aye, below zero on the Fahrenheit scale is . . . mighty cold.

On the other hand, above 100 Fahrenheit does not get you cooked literally.

ezodisy

Yes, 100 isn't so bad as long as the humidity is low as in New Mexico.
