bountyhunter Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 I know 20 degree weather isn't as cold as some places (I was stationed at Otis AFB in Massachusetts one year) but it's still stinking cold. It got down to about 30 last night and will drop lower next few days. I didn't move to California so I could freeze to death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonytheTiger Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 20 degrees? I'll be heading your way with my swimming shorts promptly! Sounds downright enjoyable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 I'm with you! I'm not a winter person at all. I was in a store today and a lady said it was such a nice day outside! It's been cloudy for so long, when she saw sunshine through the window she equated that to a nice day. I think it topped out at 27 today? Sunshine does not always mean nice!!

JimmyZip Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Currently visiting California. The Coachella valley is ringed with snow capped peaks and the snow was down to 1500ft last night. Yeah, brrrrr for this area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modoc Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 I grew out the facial hair for a reason. We are having the same here in the North End of the Sacramento Valley. It wasn't too bad when we had cloud cover. 20s with a 20 knot wind really sucks the heat out of you. And this why I moved out of the Great Basin, I wanted more than 3 strands of barbed wire between me and the pole. The truly hateful part is that the Arthritis is really acting up because of it.

TH3180 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 A high above 10°F would be nice right about now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonytheTiger Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 A high above 10°F would be nice right about now. I agree. Constant 28mph winds all day make it 10x worse too. I gotta know TH3180, is the date of birth on your profile page correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neomet Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 When I moved here from St Louis 8 years ago (almost to the day) I remember walking around in shorts and a tee shirt laughing at all the locals in Uggs, parkas and other stuff I was used to seeing on the ski slopes. Now if it drops below 60 I've got all my UA coldgear on and am digging for my electric blanket. Funny how we get used to certain temperatures.

JimmyZip Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Wow, just took the dogs out, and 32F! That is cold for Bermuda Dunes CA. Took the dogs out to the snow last night about this time early AM. The chain station was unoccupied or staffed so I took the Subaru on up to Pinyon. 25mph behind the plow from Vista Point to the village. The dogs live in CA still and were running around like kids in the snow. Never had dogs so happy to see snow. Thought I wold get a break from the cold in NM. I guess not for a while. Taking the kids sledding tomorrow though so that's a plus! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunker Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 20 degrees in Southern New Hampshire. I am glad the price of oil is at a long time low. That oil furnace hasn't had a break lately. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solidgun Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Had a 2-gun match when it was -5F. I don't complain about the cold too much after that unless I have to go to ND to see friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiG Lady Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 I was stunned about the snow in southern California this week. We've had our share of the Canadian air up here, though, with three nights in a row at about 20-23 degrees of low (we've had worse). And not much higher during the day (it's 32 right now). But sunny as heck and DRY. That doesn't make it easier to bear (don't give me that "it's a dry cold" line), and we're due for a significant warmup by week's end. Weather up here in winter can be all over the map in terms of temps and conditions, so I have no serious gauge by which to judge what we're experiencing at the moment (other than my 22 years of living here). The cold isn't so bad if you're standing out in the sun, but if you're in the shade and there's the least bit of wind, you're frozen toast. An when we DO have these cold spells, the wind comes right out of the north--you can all but smell the glacial ice . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoomy Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Who says it never snows in Phoenix? View from my balcony. Pretty cool way to start 2015. I'll be heading your way at the end of February for the Desert Classic and SMM3G. Can't happen soon enough sinc we are already forecasting below zero nights and single digit days next week.

Me too, during the one fall semester I spent in Berkeley, back in 1982. I'd hit the school bus stop in December, dressed in a Denim Jacket because it was in the low 40s, and all of my classmates would show up dressed for attending school in Princeton NJ......

Round_Gun_Shooter Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 I have had 2 surgeries in the last three weeks. They put me on blood thinners for a little while and I am freezing my butt off. I never get cold since I work outside year round. Right now, 30 degrees is tough and it will be a long winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlockCanMan Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 It was pretty cold down here in Florida also. In fact it was sooo cold I had to pull my truck over to the side of the road and look at the owners manual and try to figure out how to turn off the AC...it was down to 65F the other day.
