LOL, too true Coops!

[Cooper]

I am WIMP----- Minus -16 I don't care if its F or C this is cold. First time since we moved to Kamloops that I have had plug my car in ( electric blocker heater that heats oil so it starts easier) the trailer looks like one large ice cube. This is Northern BC Alberta and Southern Alberta weather. Will be trying to find a full serve gas station too cold to stand out side to fill the car and truck with gas
Poor dog just got back from the groomer so he doesn't wonder too far from the house to do his business ...means easy pick up for me.
Please will any one in warmer climates please email some heat....

We are having a January thaw - temps are actually around 40F - so I thought I'd send you some liquid sunshine!

However next week - we are supposed to go down to 2F on Wednesday & Thursday so we go back into the deep freeze mode!

[Cooper]

Thanks for the liquid sunshine going to need it...we are going to hit a high of minus 13. I think I' ll hit the beach for a little ice hockey or full contact curling or maybe ice fishing....on 2nd thought no.

Wish I could ship or email yall some of this heat it is 4:30pm and 73 degrees. I would like to see some snow at least once this winter. We like to make snow cream. It doesn't taste to good made out of grass LOL

[knesdad]

Our January thaw has come and gone... The rain and 40's have given way to the 20's again. But with the 17" of snow gone I can get the ATV back down to the woods now!

[Cooper]

Dave..any thought of putting a plow on your ATV and chains on the tires (4x4?) so you can plow the drive and break trail to the woods " badger style"....or do have the old "Big Red Honda Three Wheeler"?

[Cooper]

Volvosweetie.....Ab/Pam.. I've eaten haggis more than once,,,,but what is " snow cream" or are you just pulling my leg?

It is when you go out side after the snow has fallen. Find a clean spot where nothing has been fill a huge bowl with the snow. Then you add 1 can of sweetened condense milk, 1 teaspoon of vanilla flavoring. Then you mix it togther till you get it looking like vanilla ice cream then eat YUM. If the snow has sleet or freezing rain with it don't use it. The sleet and freezing rain makes it yucky. The lighter the snow the better it taste.

Coops,

I have chains for my Sportsman 400 for getting out on the lake for some ice fishing. So no Big Red 3 Wheeler here! But no plow on it yet. I've thought about it, by my Big Orange 2 Wheeler blows out the driveway just fine.

Early forecast for next week is single digits for the high temps and below 0 for the nightly lows. That should firm up the lake pretty good!

[Cooper]

Hey, Captain Highliner (AKA Dave) How big of a boat do you have for ice fishing..your hull must be pretty strong from taking a beating against the ice.






Gotcha

Hook,line and sinker🎣

[Nana & Poppy]

Posted below is what we can expect for cold for Friday....time to get out the long johns before I head out to work in the morning......

NORTHERN HERKIMER-HAMILTON-
448 PM EST THU JAN 17 2013

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR HAMILTON AND NORTHERN
HERKIMER COUNTIES OF EAST CENTRAL NEW YORK.

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT.

IT WILL BE MUCH COLDER TONIGHT WITH TEMPERATURES FORECAST TO DROP
WELL BELOW ZERO...10 TO 20 DEGREES BELOW. (and that is F temps not C) EVEN THOUGH WINDS WILL
DIMINISH TO LESS THAN 5 MPH AFTER MIDNIGHT...THEY WILL MAKE IT
FEEL COLDER

[Cooper]

Ab & Pam..... I stood out side in the front yard since the 14th January with my huge bowl in both hands. But no luck no falling snow . This is a mixed blessing....unable to make snow cream but I don't have to shovel it.
Unable to use the back yard as our Welsh Terrior uses this area.... if you what I mean.....

Thanks again for the recipe...may crush some ice cube and try it that way.

Well I have made it before with a kitchen blender thing called the ninja. It says it will make ice into snow. It some what did but it made the snow cream a little icy instead of creamy. May be it will snow a little not alot so you can make some. It is very yummy and sweet. We had flakes of snow last night for about an hour and a half but because we had rain most of the day it didn't really stick and then it rained some more we weren't able to make any
Today is sunny can't even tell it snowed. Good luck on the ice or the snow for your snow cream. Yes don't use yellow snow

Baby it's cold outside -18F

I guess you're getting our frigid temps from a couple of days ago, now that it finally moved out of here (and to the east)...

We had some pretty good winds that last couple of days. I noticed a few shingles laying on the ground and I see that they are mine! But nothing compared to the homeowners along Lake Winnebago, which is a mile or so west of me. Check out this video of what the winds did with the lake ice.

And I got this link from my sister in CA, who saw it on the news out there!

That is amazing!

Tues. night was -28C here on the eastern shore of Georgian Bay. Today when the fire pager went off at 7AM for a drive shed fully involved it was
-23C. it made fire fighting quite a challange. I should add it was property damage only, no injuries to people or aminals.
