kind of OT, but I just found out that the local TV station will email you and send you a text message if your child's school is closed...this should come in handy this week

my son's school district is pretty large. Its partly rural and partly city if that makes sense. The school I went to never closed because it was in the city and we had no busses.

Good point. I suppose they close the rural schools around here when there is a lot of snow, but it hasnt been snowing much, just cold.. :-/
 
43f in sj right now. feels damn cold to me🙂

don't call me a pansy, i used to live in canada, calgary. but its different when your equiped for that kinda cold.
 
overclock...overclock...overclock...
=p

But yeah, getting used to such cold makes other climates strangely warm...I'm visiting NYC over Christmas break and my family is convinced that 40 degrees is really cold...
But I recall that night where it was -9 Farenheit and THAT was cold.

Of course it's all relative I guess eh? But if there was -40 outside I'd bundle up, and put my PC in a vented casing outside to take advantage of the cold. Filtered obviously for snow(probably relatively easy to set up a hood system to prevent snow from coming in. FREE MHZ!
 
My room is starting to get kinda cold.... it was 81f in here earlier today, but now its 75.6f. i might have to change out of these shorts...
outside is pretty cold too... like 50f. I'm used to the weather of southeast asia... where it never drops below 60f.

 
I its cold out when, I go outside in the still winter to look at the stars and drink beer and when I get to the end of the beer, its slush.

 
I sum up my response to the weather as such: You can be assured that if I had a tail, I would be freezing it off.

Wow, that's pretty damn cold; I feel sorry for you Canucks. I thought I had it bad in the Seattle area...

It's worse to drive in the kind of weather I get, though. The snow falls thick during the night, but come daytime the temperature moves up into the mid-30s and it melts somewhat, so that the top is just water and/or slush. Then, the next night, it drops below freezing and the top layer becomes a sheet of solid ice. The surface of this sheet consists of crystallized ice, though, so it looks like plain snow - until you try to drive on it and end up with your car sliding sideways down a hill.
 
Man, I went to the gas station and I was thinking, "Gee, it's pretty warm outside, it must be about 45."

It's 24.

I'm turning into a yankee. :| :disgust:
 
it's only 38F here, but it's windy which really sucks when you're walking around outside.

at lunch i heard someone walking past me say "why would anyone live in alaska?"
