It's So Cold...
« on: November 29, 2006, 06:36:30 PM »
Wow! A definite blue norther hit Texas today. It was almost 80* at 2 pm. Now at 6:30pm, winds from the North at 40mph, rain and 38*. Looking for freezing rain, snow and a low of 25*.
BRRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111110ne.

Now, a homage to Johnny Carson:

It's so cold...

HOW COLD IS IT???

It's so cold, I saw HiTech using Skuzzy's beard as a hand warmer!

Yeah, I didn't hear about the cold front until last night. I stopped by Lowe's and picked up a roll of plastic and some duct tape to cover my wellhouse. It was dark when I got home last night so I put it off til after work today hoping the storm would be late getting here. Well, it was early and I had to work an hour late.:furious

I tried taping some plastic over the door in 40mph winds for about 5 min then said "screw this". It was too cold and wet for the tape to stick so I rolled the plastic up and shoved it in the cracks around the door. Hopefully the spaceheater will keep it warm enough for tonight.
