Why must the weather be so bloody.... whatever!?

[Pilot Bush]

In Chicago, you more or less have to get used to shitty weather like that. Northerners are much more hardy than people like Californians and Flordians

I'm in Wales by the coast and that means wind and rain, and lots of it. All day, every day.

I'm looking forward to going home for Christmas, if only just to experience a slight drop in temperature which may bring snow. But it will probably just rain at home too

I'm a little further inland in Wales, and I can safely say it's not snowing. It is, however, doing that very special trick of raining incredibly heavily from a clear blue, sunny sky. I don't know how Wales does it, but by Jove it does it to the best of its abilities!

Minus 27? I hope for your sake that's a typo...

Sadly, it's not... the temperature, adjusted to include the wind chill, is -33c. I live in Western Canada, and while it's certainly not the coldest place on Earth, most of the Prairies get mighty cold. I've actually worked outside in -80c... -39c physically, with a -41c wind chill. Imagine penguin people, wearing goggles, and waddling. That's more or less what the crew I was on looked like.

That's besides last winter, where I was working 7 hours north of home, living in a camp; we worked 10 days out, and with nothing else to do, if it wasn't snowing, we worked. Some days were -40c at sunrise.

You should come on over to Vancouver, were a comfortable -2c at the moment!

And raining, right?

GOGO phoeniz, AZ. No winter to speak of here, just slightly colder

Hey! It's been sunny for the past 3 days, buddy........ after raining for 27 days straight. Jeez, Canada's weather sucks.

 

[Tartarga]

It was 28 degrees at my house today. Even worse it was snowing and I had to get up at 6 o'clock and walk down my driveway. Pretty soon its going to be covered in ice and I hate ice!

 

[Spiner909]

It's about 50f where I live (California) and that is pretty damn cold to me

Aww damn Well I live just inside the Shropshire border, which is again is a bit further inland, so I've still got hopes

And I know exactly what you mean about Wales' rain trick, it did it yesterday when I was out shooting. The sky had been gray all day, then the clouds above us cleared, leaving blue sky and lo and behold, it began to piss it down on us all. Not cool

 

[Sark]

We have already had a few 40 C + days here. Makes me want to move to a cold country.

 

[Apache2142]

West Yorkshire, England is just wank these days-weather wise! Rain and wind...meh.

 

[MagnetoHydroDynamics]

I live in denmark, which next to Bergen (Norway) and most of the British Isles is the most rainful place in europe.

So, the current temperature where I'm at is -27c. Fortunately, there's no wind chill, but still, it's buggering cold, particularly if you're about to spend the day on the roof of some building, trying to make it water-tight. And it's especially poopy out when I remember the 8" of snow we got over the weekend... the 8" I'll be helping shovel.

Bleh.

So, in what particular manner is Mother Nature tormenting the rest of you right now?

Thats funny, I am also in -27 weather, except I do have a windchill, for a balmy -35 degrees celcius right now. Sometimes I really hate where I live....


edit** I also noticed you said you were living in western canada in the prairies. I figure we must be pretty close to eachother, if our weather is about the same. You don't live in or around saskatoon per chance?

 

[Aesthetical Quietus]

I. Fucking. Hate. Summer.

Australian summers are ridiculous, especially in Queensland when it's 30 degrees (in the shade) on a cold day. To top it off, my air-conditioning is broken, so I've resorted to soaking myself with a spray bottle.

Thank christ I get to go to California for a week in January. Bring on the motherfucking cold!

I remember those days, if you weren't in front of the A/C you were in the pool. Thank fuck I'm across the ditch in lil ol' New Zealand now. It may be more expensive, but the weather never gets THAT fucking ridiculous.

 

[-Drifter-]

Always pretty damp here. During the summer it's humid, during the winter it's slushy and wet. I want to move back to my home town. At least there when it snowed, it actually snowed instead of raining slush.

Besides, I hate what the damp air does to my voice.

I take it you've never been to 100 mile house. We've had -40 winters, and it's not even that far North.

No, just on the lower mainland and Halifax.

No, I live in England... the weather's not great but it doesn't get that cold ^^
