yea...yea...it IS high...it is practically fucking naked beach suntan weather.
tomorrow here is -10F...negative 23 to you people who live in imaginary places.

That's raw temp...negative fucking 50 [or lower] with windchill.

I think your ice and snow has turned to ash in my part of the world. Townships are evacuating - it looks like Armageddon in the sky. People are relocating to "safe" places and hoping they've done enough to protect their houses from the bushfires that are out of control. We actually have a Boeing 737 water bomber dropping shit loads of water on the fires. We've still had no rain in January. It's all pretty damn bleak.

What he said. Coldest windchill in 20 years. Can cause frostbite in 5 minutes. Really, really glad I work from home.

we've had snow, snow, and more snow.
normally it'll snow a few inches, then the next day it'll be so warm all the snow will melt! (the sun is way hotter the higher up ya get! heh)
but in the last 10 days we've had 3 big snows and very little of it has melted off BUT it's supposed to be in the 40s tomorrow! YAY!

It's currently sitting on 32C at 5pm, and we have 14 emergency warnings, 11 "Watch and Act", 12 "advice" for bushfires - that's pretty much the State up in flames 8O

It has cooled off a lot now, and tomorrow is supposed to be cold. So hopefully they can have a good day containing the fires.

No Same Waffle House this morning, was too damn cold! I did not want to deal with shaking scraping ice from my car or dealing with a difficult engine start.

Maybe tomorrow.
