Below zero this morning, high will be only a bit above. Even with a space heater in the shop, I can’t keep it warm enough to work there, and it will be much colder nex week. I suspect I won’t get any modeling done for at least a week[:(]
Space heater is a pain- I have to turn it off to airbrush or rattlecan. But I can work for a few minutes. I just don’t have that much to do on current project that I can do in a couple of minutes. Maybe I’ll spend the next week learning a new CAD program and experimenting with my Cricut machine.
It’s about the same here in western NY. Modeling is one of the only things that helps get me through this miserable thing called winter. If it wasn’t for family and friends being here I would of left a long time ago.
Thats why I moved to NC,was 12 on monday morning,but warmed to 35,rest of the week was in 40’s.We get all seasons here,just not as extreme,thats what I like about it here in the mountains.Locals talk about hot summers and cold winters,traffic and taxes,I laugh and say try New Jersey.
Pffftttt… amateurs. It’s winter. What’d you expect? I live in Central New York and we dealt with everything old man winter throws at us, including below zero temperatures. I know it sucks but let’s face it… embrace the suck.
Yesterday, some communities in my area are dealing with flooding. Yes, flooding from constant rain and freezing rain. Creeks overflowing because water has no where to go. How’d you like to deal with that in the middle of winter?
I live up in Toronto and personally I love the winter. On really cold nights it’s great to hunker down in the basement working on a model, listening to music and enjoying a stout or other dark beer. I enjoy walking the dog and coming back to a nice, warm house.
After enduring a long, cold winter, it makes me appreciate summer that much more. It feels like I’ve earned it!
10degrees here in North Central OH. Sunny and no wind, actually quite nice. Below zero monday…50 wednesday…I love Ohio weather, wouldn’t change it for the world!
Cold front is making its way through Wisconsin now too after constant snowing the last few days. Was -6 when I left for work this morning. The same temp is the projected high for wednesday.
I wonder , do you live near Buffalo ? I can remember 12 below and wind effect snow at 6 foot in one day ! The hardest thing for a Medium build guy and grandma riding the streetcar was going out across the road to try mounting those slippery steps ,this was in 1965 by the way . T.B.
Did you spend time on the U.S.C.G Icebreaker, Eastwind, too ? That’s where I first got any thoughts like that ! How about this ,You and the Missus on Ice station Zebra . Yeah the plane broke .Twelve days .Ain’t ever gonna be near cold that bad again .If it keeps getting frosty in Texas I may move to Hawaii .
Upper 40s to low 70s here… and the humidity dropped this afternoon, so it was perfect airbrushing weather after my bike ride. But it’s only for the next few days…
