It's not cold here. I had my jacket on but was too warm. Probably in 40s or maybe even 50s in Chicago area. We got like 1/4 inch of snow finally this week, and it's all gone now :(

I want some snow dammit!

Nah, it's very nice here; beautifully overcast. Went for a run at 5:30 this morning and the weather was perfect. Just had shorts and a running shirt on.

Not this guy, I freaking love the snow, particularly when it comes down out here because everyone does panic. It's hilarious.

I'd panic if we had 1cm of snow. It would mean that we were on the metric system and that could only be a result of us finally getting conquered by Mexico.

I wouldn't trade the Colorado front range weather for anything. It can be -5 or 65 on any given day in January.

I miss the rains and the greenery of the northeast where I grew up, especially in the spring, but the rain soon gets old. It's why I like to travel all over the country at different times of year. Much the same reasons why I like to visit cities but never want to live in one again.

Because it is going to be in the 80s here in San Diego today. :p

I think I'll ride the motorcycle to work. :cool:

Hard freeze last night and another one tonight. My San Diego sister and San Diego coworker, both now living here, are not enjoying this one bit. I only spent three years in San Diego before returning here so I'm still used to this.

Always...

Combine that with over 220 days a year of overcast. The most of any major city in the USA.

Hate this hell.

Chilly this morning, but a nice 50F during the day today. Perfect jacket and hat weather.

Where is that? Ever live near Pittsburgh? The most miserable, oppressive weather that I've ever experienced. It doesn't always rain, doesn't always snow, but there is _always_ an ugly, low grey covering of clouds overhead. It's like living under a filthy wool blanket all the time.

Was 32F in south Texas this morning, a bit lower than usual for this time of year.

I love overcast skies. There is plenty of sun light to see, but enough cloud cover to keep direct light out of your eyes.

Nasty, it's raining now. WTF rain in November?! This global warming crap is getting old!

All the snow that was on pavement surfaces is now gone other than a few slushy sections. Really nasty out there.

I'll take a little cold each year if it means avoiding fiery damnation.

Dying from hypothermia is like falling asleep. Burning alive, yeah, not so much.

Yes, because it's like that here all the time. :whiste:

I've seen fires a couple times, never anywhere near my house. Smoke is the bigger problem IMO.

The past few days have been unseasonably cold, and especially windy. Highs in the upper 20s/low 30s with wind chills in the low 20s.

Today was warmer with highs in the mid-upper 40s. Still very windy though.

This global warming crap is getting old!

I for one am looking forward to it. I hate cold.

Have you ever been anywhere that made you happy? All you ever do it bitch and complain about where you're at. You hated Vancouver, you really hated Seattle, now you hate Portland.

The solution (as always) is in your hands. Take your car keys, get in the car and drive till you find someplace you like. (is there any such place on earth?)


That's what this is for.

LOL! No, I'm a white dude and never touched another man in a sexual way in my entire life. The times in Old's basement don't count because I was under duress. ;)

I kind of like that helmet and I actually saw another guy with the same helmet on my ride in to work this morning believe it or not. He was riding a Repsol Honda... not sure if he was Asian... or gay because my overpriced Italian bike couldn't keep up with him. :p

Looking at the video, it is a funny way of showing duress :whiste:

I still live in Seattle. I don't hate Portland. I don't love Portland either. I don't think it's the right place for me to live.

When I get out of college, I will be moving. Guess who's not out of college? This guy.
