It's that time of year again!

How cold is it in your area?

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

This morning on the way to school, the thermometer in the car said it was -23 degrees. Man it was cold. It has been like that the last several days.. Mostly under ten degrees and lower, but this morning was just crazy cold. How cold has it gotten where you are?

-1° here. I don't know what the wind chill is. We are supposed to get into the 20s tomorrow.

80º :| Yeah, it may sound good to you, but it's quite boring. Not to mention confusing for the flora and fauna.

It's around 10 right now, getting down to -1 tonight. That is FRIGID for this area. \:D/ Last night got down to 4-5ish, and the high today was only 16-18ish. Add the wind chill and it was pretty cold, let me tell you. And I had to go out in it this morning!

11. I've had a hard time getting warm all day. :( It's like 25 degrees colder in NY, though...

My car broke down last night, and I was standing around outside for about 30 minutes while a friend worked on it.. It was about 3 degrees. It took me quite a while before I could feel my hands after that.

It's about 16 right now, which is a great improvement from 24 hours ago when it was in the negatives. I love the cold weather, though. \:D/

According to the National Weather Service, it got down to -14 in the last day or two... with at least a -30 degree windchill! :cold: Luckily, we're in for a heat wave - it should be back up to 20 tomorrow! \:D/

I have had to do that before, it's great fun! \:D/

My neighbors battery keeps dying so I have helped him jump it a couple times now, but that isn't as fun and involving as a tire! \:D/ Although it took us a while to chip the ice off of my hood so we could get to my battery.

It's supposed to be 20 degrees today... it has been below zero with a windchill of -35 or so the last few days. But its finally warming up! \:D/

Right around 32 degrees Farenheit. I couldn't really tell you how cold because of not seeing the temp at all, but it didn't snow SLIGHTLY, there was ice on the road and sidewalks (crazy freezing fog), and it was VERY cold... so yeah... Walla Walla in all it's winter glory...

It was somewhere in the teens this morning, and now I think it's twenty something.
