Coming back from Winter break, it sure didn't feel like winter. I go to school at BGSU near Toledo, Ohio and all week it was beautiful. This morning, I walk outside for my political science class and just get smacked in the face by winter. Its 19 degrees outside but with a wind chill of 2. Not only that, but the wind is blowing at 25 mph (consistently) and gusting up to 36 mph.

Not going out tonight, that's for sure.
How is winter at where you live?

Up until this week winter was a breeze, very little snow and above average temps.

On Wed of this week I was walking at lunch, it was just under 50 degrees, and on the river there were two guys fishing in an aluminum boat. Then overnight it went to crap, 5 inches of snow and not above 17 degrees for 2nd day in a row.

Winter sucks, hate it more every year. :x

Unseasonably warm, here in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. It's been warm temps and little snow up until now... according to the forecast, winter is going to arrive next week with snow and temps dropping to -30, with the windchill... and at -30 it don't matter if it is Celcius or Farenheit, that's damn cold! The good news is the cold snap is only supposed to last the week and then its back to unseasonably warm.

Winter in Seattle. whats that? so far so good, its been mild and unseasonably worn and dry. Today they say we may expect a little change for the weekend and into next week. SNOW in the lowland's of Puget Sound. Sounds like the whole west side may be in for a small taste of the white stuff. :) LET HER FLY were ready for it. I boastfully hope. 8)

:lol: :lol: :lol: 36mph is nothing, here in Wellington, New Zealand, we were getting up to 126kmh/78mph just yesterday. Those kinds of speeds arent even rare either. We call 25mph "breezy" haha.
