January 5, 201412 yr Active Members The last few days cold weather has been a big topic. A lot of hype is bellowed such as records will be set, etc. but when a reputable source says, coldest since 1993 or the like, it kind of takes the "sting" out of record, doesn't it? MEM is forecast for the lower teens which is plenty cold for this far South. However, I have seen it at minus 15 here but a long time ago. Who is in the really cold area and where (generally) are you? What are you doing to prepare? This could be a two escort night or a two bottle night or a two blanket night or a LOT of logs night.

January 5, 201412 yr Active Members I'm in NE Ohio and they are predicting the following for tomorrow, the big concern being the wind chill temperatures: Monday, 1/6/2014 Hi: 12° Snow in the morning...then snow showers in the afternoon. Blowing snow. Snow may be heavy at times in the afternoon. Additional snow accumulation of 3 to 5 inches. Windy and much colder with highs around 14. Temperature falling to around 9 above in the afternoon. West winds 20 to 30 mph with gusts up to 45 mph. Chance of snow near 100 percent. Wind chill values as low as 16 below. Lo: -6° Snow showers. Blowing snow. Snow may be heavy at times. Additional moderate snow accumulation. Windy and much colder with lows around 6 below. Southwest winds 25 to 30 mph with gusts up to 40 mph. Chance of snow 90 percent. Wind chill values as low as 32 below. Really shouldn't be too bad and fortunately I don't have to go out for anything for the next few days and can catch up on things around the house. Only preparation was to make sure plenty of food on hand for the next couple days. Planning on making a big pot of homemade soup today so that will get me through this just fine. My puppy will have to miss her daily walks for the next few days ........
January 5, 201412 yr Active Members Here in nYC, its in the 30's Today and expected to be 49 and rainy tomorrow. Pretty normal weather for winter., The deep-freeze has passed. I can take the heating pad off my balls (he was getting tired of hanging there anyway !)
January 5, 201412 yr Author Active Members Although I am not expecting anything other than fairly cold temps, I have made a big pot of chili and will enjoy it regardless. Those who live and brag about "tropical" weather in JAN are beyond help. How can there be life without changes? Best regards, RA1
January 5, 201412 yr In Central Ohio we'll forecasting temps in the 30s until tomorrow, then the drop starts to sub-zero temps. Thank goodness for seat warmers in the car!
