It's 15 degrees here

[LaurenG]

What's the temperature where you are? At what temperature have you set your thermostat? Ours is at 66.

[bicentennial_baby]

1. Same here...

and i have to go out there! :scared:

i dunno what the thermostat is set at, b/c my mom does that, but it can't be very high, since i have my spaceheater running :)

[LaurenG]

10. You working or doing the black Friday thing?

The wind chill will freeze your breath.

[Thom Little]

2. 40 degrees at dawn in S. Carolina. Come on down for a visit.

Just imagine how warm it'll be by midday.

[LaurenG]

9. No kidding

I guess that means there is no snow either? Nice.:thumbsup:

[lovelaureng]

3. How odd, this is exactly what it's like where I'm at.

:evilgrin:

[LaurenG]

8. No, that's not really that odd

you live here. :hi: Did you do this just to kick my thread? :hug: :pals: :loveya:

[lovelaureng]

12. Absolutely! Right back at ya!

:loveya: :hug: :grouphug: :pals:

[Archae]

4. 14 here.

In Sheboygan, WI.

[LaurenG]

11. Wisconson and Minnesota weather sort of scares me

People have told me that it isn't too odd to get a -50 in winter. Is that true?

[Archae]

20. It does happen...

But not too often.

We had it get to 40 below several years ago.

[LaurenG]

24. What happens to car batteries and outside critters

Everything freeze to death? It's just fascinating that people can get through that kind of cold. I'd think (sorry about this) snot would freeze instantly? Breathing would hurt, am I right?

[Archae]

27. It varies.

Yes, some critters do freeze to death, and lots of dead car batteries.
(Especially cars that aren't parked in garages.)

But far more critters and cars are casualties of being hit by other vehicles. :-)

[Left Is Write]

37. I remember one winter when I was living in Wisconsin...

it got particularly cold for record periods of time. I think we went a two or three week stretch when the temperature never got above zero.

I was living with two roommates. We each took turns getting up in the night to start everybody's cars.

The first day it got above zero, my boss and I went outside for a smoke; it was something like 6 degrees, but it felt like a heat wave!

[DainBramaged]

5. New Joisey (no exit hahaha) 19° here, my tookus is frozen

[LaurenG]

14. Too cold once it's under 32 IMHO

But I was raised in West Texas so 19 is almost unheard of.

[DainBramaged]

16. We had our warmest September ever, October great

and most of this month in the 50's. Last year it was 65 on Thanksgiving, so it is a bit brisk. It will top out at 36 today, 39 tomorrow, 58 Sunday, 61 Monday and 67 Tuesday.

The weather yo yo goes round and round.

[SalmonChantedEvening]

6. 22, wind chill of 13 and the thermostat is at 62

Stay warm DU!!

:hug:

[LaurenG]

13. Do you wear your coat indoors?

My hands would think they were freezing. I am a wimp.

[SalmonChantedEvening]

43. I slowly bundle up before I head out the door.

A layer at a time :)

[Jamastiene]

7. 37 degrees in NC (sandhills)

according to my desktop weather app.

[LaurenG]

15. Is 37 a normal temp this time of year?

For some reason I always thought NC was a temperate state.

[Jamastiene]

17. We have longer warm seasons, but we do have

low temperatures, snow, freezing temperatures (lowest I remember was 12 degrees fahrenheit), ice, etc. This is normal. It will warm up to either the high 50's or low 60's today and then get cold again tonight.

[Mutley]

18. 18.9 degrees outside.

It is 58.9 inside my apartment, and I haven't yet turned on the heat.

[LaurenG]

19. Brave, brave girl

:grouphug: to warm you up.

[Mutley]

23. Thanks.

:)

I'm being as cheap as possible with BGE this winter.

[Misunderestimator]

21. It's 55 now at 6 am. Haven't yet turned my heat on this year.

We're expecting a high of only 68 today... brrrr. :)

[LaurenG]

22. I would be satisfied with a high of 55

but I'd probably want my heat on. Cold makes me want to take a really hot bath.

[cwydro]

25. 68 here in the Keys

with a high of 80 forecast. A pretty day.

[LaurenG]

26. Enjoy that weather

You certainly deserve it after this year's wacky hurricane season.

[cwydro]

28. oh you

can say that again. What an awful summer.

[ernstbass]

29. We're up to 22 this am

with a high of 35 today - Virginia

[LaurenG]

33. I love Virginia

Something about that state that feels like potential and hope to me. I don't know why.

[ernstbass]

36. It's because we're slowly turning blue

and not from the cold!!

[LaurenG]

38. Thank goodness,

Ohio may be more blue than it used to be but I'm not yet ready to say it's NOT because of the cold. lol

[Deja Q]

30. 17 and a big-ass blizzard here in St Paul!

:woohoo:

[LaurenG]

32. May I say I am not surprised

You are so near to Canada and the great lakes. I bet it feels that cold too. Good morning HynoToad.:hi:

[bigwillq]

31. About 30 degrees here in CT!

It's COLD! :cry:

[LaurenG]

34. Stay inside

stay warm and enjoy your day. I'm thinking "warm" to you.

[SmileyBoy]

35. 19 and snowing... Whoopdee doo....

Whoopdee freaking doo...

[LaurenG]

52. The weather is just getting you in the spirit of the season right? nt

[NNadir]

39. We're in the twenties. Thermostat's at 70. My youngest has strep throat.

Otherwise we'd be keeping it lower.

[LaurenG]

47. I wouldn't turn my heat lower than 70

if I had children or elderly in the house. Too vulnerable. I even worry about the cats getting to cold. My husband just laughs at me though.

[TK421]

40. It's 34 here, and the thermostats set at 68

[LaurenG]

48. About right for this time of year right? nt

[Horus45]

41. 72 degrees right now at 12:25 PM Arizona Time.

I say Arizona Time because we don't change our clocks here for Daylight Savings Time. In the Winter we are Mountain Time and in the Summer we are Pacific Time.
I keep my thermostat set at 65 and trust me it does get cold enough at night for the heat to kick on.
I LOVE living in the desert!
No snow to shovel or leaves to rake and no lawn to mow!

[LaurenG]

49. That is nice. The desert smells so good after a rainstorm

Oh by the way, can I use parmesan as a substitue in your recipe?

[Horus45]

60. Yes, absolutely

Changing the cheese will have a subtle effect on the main flavor of lemon and garlic.
I always say; use what you like or what you have on hand.

[El Fuego]

42. 79 :(

West Palm Beach, FL. I want some cold weather!!!! Who's in charge of this?

[LaurenG]

50. You know I know how you feel

because I wish for 79 degree weather.:hi:

[nguoihue]

44. About 80 degrees F at dusk

somewhere in the tropics on the other side of the globe

[LaurenG]

51. A warm and balmy evening for you. Ahh how lovely! nt

[NMMNG]

45. 24 here. Thermostat is at 74

[LaurenG]

53. I love the sound of 74 degrees

My computer is upstairs and it stays pretty warm up here but downstairs is cool enough to keep fresh flowers for weeks.

[RebelOne]

46. It's 32 degrees here in Woodstock, GA,

just northwest of Atlanta. I have a small heater going. Don't need to turn the furnace on yet. I only do that when the temperature goes into the 20s.

[LaurenG]

54. That just amazes me

We lost our heater for 2 days a few years ago. The plug in heater just didn't do it for me. I plugged in the electric blanket and all of us (2 cats included) stayed on the couch with it on the whole time.

[RebelOne]

58. I'm a cold weather person. I love winter,

so the cold doesn't bother me like it does other people. I love it when it is 40 degrees and sunny.

[Left_Winger]

55. As of 8am it is 23

but this afternoon it is supposed to be a balmy 61. We'll see...

[LaurenG]

56. I always like to have a 61 degree sneak attack

in the middle of a cold snap. I hope it does just that for you.

[Left_Winger]

57. On Thanksgiving afternoon

it was 65 by late afternoon and even warmer in the direct sunshine. This is one aspect of living in SC that I do not mind.

[we can do it]

59. WOW -We Are Up to 25 degrees Now

Inside temp at 63 degrees

[LaurenG]

61. Cold weather is

hard to be out in for very long. And just think by January we'll be thinking 25 is warm.

[Callalily]

62. Yeah, you're right!

Here in Wisconsin if it's 25 in January we consider it a heatwave!

edit - Opps, I forgot - I was going to dedicate my 700th post to Politically_Wrong. So Jor, here it is, my 700th post for you!

[LaurenG]

63. Congratulations your 700th post, dedicated to Politically_Wrong

:toast: :bounce: :party: :bounce: :toast: :bounce: :toast: :toast: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[Politically_Wrong]

65. Thanks!

You shouldn't have! :rofl: I will dedicate my 300th post to you (if I ever get there!) 25 degrees in January in Pittsburgh would also be warm...of course if it were up to me it would be snowing all day everyday and wouldn't dare reach the scorching temperature of 25! (Well maybe every now and then...in case I ever decide I feel like rowing ;-) )

[Callalily]

68. Bwahahahahaha

Scorching temperature of 25! Yes indeed, in January that does feel warm. Hmmm, rowing season unfortunately stopped two weeks ago, and I miss the river already. I've rowed in 20 degree weather, but it's a safety issue and club rules actually bar us from rowing when it gets that cold.

[Politically_Wrong]

70. I suspect...

Rowing in 20 degree weather would be dangerous!

[PittPoliSci]

64. same here.

[ghostsofgiants]

66. 2°, thermostat is at 23°

Celcius, that is. METRIC4LYFE!!!

[bigwillq]

67. It's still cold here in CT!

I hate this weather.

[AirmensMom]

69. It's 77 degrees here, inside and outside.

We set the thermostat to 78 for A/C, 68 for heat. :hi:

[Blue_In_AK]

71. It was 0 when we first got up...

It's now warmed up to 2. We have the thermostats on 70, and a fire in the fireplace. We're getting ready to go out for a Sunday drive and some photo-shooting. It may be cold, but it's beautiful.

[LeftyMom]

72. 50

I'm freezing my ass off.
