JustSewSimple Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Shana, we all know how generous you are. You are giving and caring and you share what you have. Well, we, down here in the south, would like to thank you for the cold weather you must have sent from the North Pole but we are done now. We really, really appreciate you thinking of us but now you can keep the rest until next year. I woke up this morning and the news said it was colder here than in Alaska. So, I thought of you. Ha!

KathG Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Shana...............Love you too, and you have been more than generous, we have had snow here where I live in the UK for the last three weeks. So I am very happy for you to let someone else have it now.:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P;););) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeAnn Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 This is Shana's fault? Well......I think I've had enough too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltingnanny Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Hey Shana, if you are responsible for all this cold, the least you could do is send snow to Florida ! Just butt-chilling temp.'s aren't enough. We have been 14 to 18 every day this week ! :mad: Give us something pretty to look at. Thanks Girlfriend !

mountainquilter Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Well gals, today finally we hit 26 degrees and beautiful blue skies against the white peaks of the Colorado Rocky Mountains. Just sitting and watching everyone else's terrible weather in other parts of US. Glad it's not us but at least you all will thaw out and melt before me.

Kerstin Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Ahhh, that's why! Thank you Shana ... Snow and frost are also here in Germany for three weeks and for the weekend the weatherforecast is talking about a blizzard for Germany ... we will see. Always take the good site of a situation: so much snow means stay a lot of time at home, means a lot of time for sewing and quilting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calicoquilter Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Shana, We just got 12 inches of snow yesterday, but I am not blaming you. Alaska is just too far away from Wisconsin for me to do that. I blame the Canadians. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it has to be this cold here, it might as well snow! It sure would be pretty to look at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veg-girl Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Aha its the russians trying to make buy more gas from them to keep warm. The whole of the UK is grinding to a halt as we rely on salt to keep the roads clear and with these exceptionally low temperatures (for us) it isn't working. Here in the south we have had -10 C which is very unusual overnight and daytime temps are only 1 or 2 degrees above freezing so no thawing during the day. Its getting tedious now. Still, more time to quilt. Yvette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Beth Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 -4 may not sound so cold to you....but to me it is way, way too cold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kreacher Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Switch to the Kelvin scale for measuring temperature and things don't seem quite so cold. In fact, today's temperature here, about +20F would actually be about 263 degrees K. That sounds hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustSewSimple Posted January 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 It is now 28 degrees with 30 mile and hr winds (gusts higher) here. The wind on your skin should feel like 10 degrees. This is the high for today. Tonight will be somewhere around 18. If this is global warming I am not impressed. Jenny, I deal better with cold than with hot! We handle the hot by jumping in the pool. I have been known to run a couple of outdoor fans out near the pool for those really hot ones. If you need some relief from the cold, come visit me for a few days.

pepsiperry Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Do not send any cold weather to Fla as we will all be paying much more for our fruit and veggies. I don't know where it is coming from (the Artic I hear but it way too cold here in Dallas We are not used to this We wrapp out pipes and worry about the pool freezeing as we do not shut down our pools in the winter like the north does. I gripe about our heat in the summer but when it gets this cold I say I will not gripe anymore but here come August and I am griping. Maybe in 2010 I will try and keep my mpouth shut. (hard for me to do lol Ann Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clovismom Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Well that settles it. Everyone should come to the Road2CA convention in Ontario CA next week where it will be 75 degrees and sunny. And the best part is you can take classes from Marilyn Badger and Jammie Wallen !
