Yep.  The cold is coming this way too.  It stinks that I have to work the overnight hours.  8 hours of patrol in an ice box. :D

Yah...winter sucks!  I'm almost ready to move south somewhere :rolleyes:
For the whole month of Dec, we were in the -40's.
Today we are -31C, so warmed up a bit :confused:
By the end of the week we are suppossed to be -7!~!
But I'll believe that when I see it :)

18 degress tonight..the rest of the week is highs in the upper 30s (except Thursday's high is 21) and lows near 15...funny thing is next week it'll probably be in the 60s all week.

Gotta love Tennessee's weather

-3 Celcius in S-Iceland now.
-41 in Winnipeg, well I knew it'd get cold there, just not THAT cold. I guess it's windstill though.
Used to work in -40 on a trawler. It would always bite the fingers.
It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)

Well, at least we don't have to worry about any mosquitoes or other flying bugs. :D
