So its been -47*C here today with the windchil. -31*C without the wind. Good news is wind is dieing down tonight but badnews is the temp is going to -38*C overnight......

My truck screamed sooooo loud this morning after i turned it on...even after being plugged in all night.

Found some snow drifts that i went through. Mainly about 1 foot of snow then went through a 3 foot drift then into the 1 foot drift with half the truck.

Pretty easy nothing crazy but pics for those who are bored on a monday night.

PS - camera phone pics





I drive so fast ice freezes backwards

 

That last pic of the ice sickle freezing backwards is cool!

 

wooooow its 79f outside right now. ohhhhh i didnt see the "C"

 

yea minus 53 aint fun!! skin freezes in 5-10 mins at this temp.

 

I grew up in Minnesota, so I know plenty about cold, but can honestly say that I've never seen icicles freeze sideways........

 

I think that it is the type of cold that you can throw a bucket of water in the air and it freezes instantly.

 

your not alone man. -38 here tonight too WITHOUT the wind chill

 

That storm that blew through Alberta and Saskatchewan is just starting to hit Winnipeg now. Forecast is for -35C tonight with -45C windchill.

 

Yep, winter has set in hard here in South East Texas.


Its 62*F outside right now. BBBBUUUUURRRRRR!!!!!!

 

crashtheline:

I went ice fishing at Antero Reservoir last week in the high mountains of Colorado and the temp outside without wind chill was -35 F. That is why we pull sleds with tents and propane heaters to keep us happy and alive. Fishing was great. Imagine a nice size single tent with: propane heater; depth finders; cooler of food and soft drinks; warm alaskan snow suits; lots of action and no city noise. Downright comfy.

A few days later I went to Elevenmile Reservoir near Hartsall, CO and it was only -25 below, thought I was in the warm zone.

Truck started up immediately, no problem. But some of the diesels at the parking lot had to really warm up their glo plugs to get their units started.

 

where's the picture of the temperature display on your truck? We need proof that it's that cold! lol

 

we had a freak day of 41f above here in minnesota! other then that the windchill has stuck consistantly around -20 -30. of course this is farenhite and iv got nothing on you canada boys

 

Heck it got up to 71 degrees today here in Alabama and its getting down to 39 degrees tonight .....hell thats cold to me, I cant imagine how yall feel

 

I would die in that weather... true story (see location for details).
