Don't complain too much...  23 degrees is riding weather in MN, be it a sled or a motorcycle... Coldest day I rode my bike was 17 degrees this year, and she didn't like it a whole lot. Put her away when the salt hits the roads.

It's -10 here today.  This s**t's getting expensive; I have Parked Motorcycle Syndrome, and since I can't ride the Fat Lady, I'm spending the winter adorning her with farkles.

Were in the low 80's yesterday. Front came through last night, all kinds of thunder boomies and some hard rain. Woke up to 64 this morning, which is supposed to be the high for the day. Should be in the 70's tomorrow.

Got up about 5am this morning turned on the coffee pot, the usual stuff.  Looked out the back door at the 9 or 10 inches of snow on the ground. Temp a brisk 6 degrees.  Poured a hot cup walked to the garage (normal ritual) opened the door looked over at her, said to myself 'crap' closed the door.
Went back up to ready for work.

11* here in New England..., It's been in the single digits... not quite into the negatives yet, but they're coming.  Was in a plow truck all day yesterday plowing out driveways for people.  With 2 1/2 heavy snow storms in little over a week... it's a chore finding places to put it all.  Around 25-26" total.
17" then 3" then 6" or so yesterday...  Hey Florida... send up some heat, we need some melt up here. crazy2 coolsmiley

Winters are still topsy-turvy! You guys have all the snow and it's colder in Jersey than it is up here. (welll..okay..we have about a foot of powder now) It's just too weird  crazy2

I wonder how much the weather is affected by magnetic field shifts?

Try to stay warm, y'all. I'm layerin' up!!
