Weather WTF

[Malthus]

This is getting absurd. First the ice storm, now this. Got woken up by a loud bang outside, wondering WTF?

Ice quakes? Never heard of 'em before.

It is so cold here, the ground is exploding?! That shit is not right.

That is crazy.

The weather in Toronto this past year must be a Biblical judgment on the city for electing Rob Ford. 

First a flood, then an ice storm, and now ... ice quakes?

Soon the Wampa will show up.

Soon the Wampa will show up.

You talking about Rob Ford again?

4-8 inches inbound on Sunday.

This winter...it annoys me.

I'm flying up to Chicago on Monday night.  Last I checked the high in Chicago on Tuesday was supposed to be -15F.

Only problem is that it didn't fit quite right, since my "jewfro" is riding too high at the moment; the mouth opening kept sliding up over my nose and the eye openings kept closing up.  I need a haircut.

I double dog dare you to cut the top off your balaclava and let your jewfro jut out like Beaker from The Muppet Show.

Life threatening cold is forecast for Iowa through Tuesday.  The NE part of the state could see a windchill of -60; my part could get -20.

[Caliga]

It's actually rather warm out right now.... too warm.

Put on the Yaktrax(tm) to schlepp to the gas station for smokes.

They worked like a charm on the snow and ice but it felt a little treacherous on bare pavement.

It's really fucking cold out there.

[Ed Anger]

Looks like the Wolfsschanze will miss most of the snow. Tomorrow and Tuesday will be hell though. Like Yi,  Yaktrax will be deployed.

[Admiral Yi]

How do you feel on bare pavement?

How do you feel on bare pavement?

Uncomfortable. Almost slipped in my garage once while wearing them.

[Admiral Yi]

Good.  I felt kind of dorky searching out the icy spots. 

[PDH]

Not too bad here.  Maybe -3f with 25 mph winds.  Maybe next time Laramie can see -30f again.
