[cheese_wizington]

The magical plug in fairy died on your computer?

Its fucking freezing here.

22 degrees in the sun and my ears are killing me.

Good thing I'm going to Florida this weekend.

[sup/]yea, Disneyworld!!![/sup]

Sorry to ruin your fun, but it was 29 degrees in Orlando today.

lol for england thats bloody boiling, wish i was there!

 

[Kamaitachi]

I do parkour.

I in my arrogance, attempted to train on ice :/

I jumped off a rather lage roof, rolled, got back up, ran for two meters, and fell over due to icy snow.

I also dived into a snowman that was already tipped over, face first.
It turned out to be an "ice-man"

I also fell off lots of walls

Some of you people are making me laugh with silly 20F. I live in Canada, if there isn't at least a foot of snow in the winter and it's not at least -10C...it's just not normal. Last year I had snow-banks that were literally taller than me, and I'm about 6 feet tall.

EDIT: it's currently only minus six Celsius, but it is warmer today than it has been lately.

Its still sunny here in TN, but they're calling for snow later this week. Seems like a slice of heaven before hell comes. But its so cold! I walk to my car from work and my fingertips hurt from the chill. Even with gloves.

an people are still rallying behind global warming...

it's the global cooling now. It cancels out.

You remind me of a friend I had in college. She's from Michigan. So whenever its gets 'cold' here in TN, like 34 degrees (laughable, I know), she would be in short sleeves and shorts while everyone else is bundled up. "Wimps" she would say.

^_^ Good news Polar Bears! You're getting your icebergs back.

The weather hasn't been very bad in Rochester. It's been pretty cold and snowing for the past few days, but nothing major. It's actually about time we had a proper winter here, since the past few years have been fairly mild.

 

[Buizel91]

Guess I shouldn't be whining about it being too cold at 60 degrees huh? Man I love Arizona

Are you kidding me? It's horrible out right now, you have the right to complain. I hate Arizona.

I'm just holding out until it's 100 degrees again, mmmmm toasty

i would die in that heat, i need a fan with spray near me 24/7

Yeah, it's just kinda funny hearing someone say that -6C(20F) is "fucking freezing" when here it's going down to -16C(3F) on Friday and that seems normal.

 

[Pm0n3y]

Not bad its 35ºF here in Raleigh NC

I live in Greenville. It's about the same here, though they say it might snow on Thursday.

We've had some snow and a LOT of ice.
To this I say
What is this Global warming they speak of??

According to weather reports, we'll have -40C. God bless Sweden. It's good actually, I get to start saying "In your face, Al Gore."

Uhhh, guys? That's why it's called Climate Change; "Global Warming" is sooooo 1990s! (Whether the Change is caused by humans or not is irrelevant to my point).

If it's "so 1990's" how come there are articles and reports on global warming as recent as 2008???

 

[minidevil921]

here is the west coast we had a major snow storm it is still sticking around. and now it is freezing cold.

Global Warming gives the wrong impression. A more suitable term is dramatic climate change, as global warming implies that everywhere on Earth will become hotter.

This is not true. It is predicted that if the ice in Greenland melted it would mess up the circulation of water in the ocean, turning the cool water that normally flows to England frigid cold, plunging them and portions of the USA's East Coast into an ice age. So if "global warming" is real, it will get much colder in these areas rather than hotter. All I'm trying to say is to not dismiss climate change just because it's cold outside.


On-topic: It bloody sucks. I like the snow, but not when it messes up my schedule. Apparently there is massive snowstorm that will hit my town on Friday. What fun.

If it's "so 1990's" how come there are articles and reports on global warming as recent as 2008???

He is saying the term is dated. While it's still used very often by the public, most scientists now simply speak of dramatic climate change.

 

[Xpwn3ntial]

Not at all. The damn school board set the qualifications of a snow day way too high.

 

[Supreme Unleaded]

Its the worst weather in 30 years, since when.

Sure its been a bit windy but i remeber when i was a little guy we had blizzards every month, like full on white out conditions.

We havent had one yet here in New Hampshire.

Dude here in New Hampsjire we've had weeks of on of below zero degree weather (ferenheight). That is when i sayit its cold. I walk home from school in 10 degree f weather in a sweatshirt, its really not that cold.

 

[Strategia]

YAY SNOW! =D There hasn't been snow this good in years. I'd almost forgotten the texture of a good layer of white gold. (I also break off and eat clear icicles. I love cold H2O.) Last monday, after coming home an hour late, I was so elated by the snow that I didn't even bother going in until I'd chucked a few snowballs at the wall and built a mini-snowman on the table.

Wrong. They lose their icebergs, we gain them. Whilst theirs is melting and growing warmer, we grow colder.
