hogan873 Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 I'm a fan of extreme weather, including snow and cold. But even I was tired of it last winter. There have been predictions that this winter could be as bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 It's in the 30s here in Austin. It's never this cold until January or February. This blows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've got about 10 so far, so I am guessing that won't happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 I was in MN all week, kind of nice to have the cold but not have to ever go outside to walk from hotel to the office. The only thing I like about winter is wearing boots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Chappas Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 The great lakes were pretty much frozen solid last winter. I would imagine that impacted how warm they got this summer and thus will not take much to freeze them up again this winter. On the bright side this causes the water level to rise which is a good thing. On pure speculation on my part but it makes good sense to me.

Jenksismyhero Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 I'm excited to finally get a snow blower. I'm buying one this year and I hope I never have to use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good thing for our side of the lake is the quicker the lake freezes, the quicker the lake effect snow stops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knightni Posted November 17, 2014 Author Share Posted November 17, 2014 Looks like more lake effect over the next few days. Four to 15 inches and a possible 1 to 2 inches of snowfall per hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swingandalongonetoleft Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 The skin on my hands feels so dry that I'm scared to even look at them. I wish I had a bucket of moisturizer here so that I could completely submerge them for like an hour. This is me obliging the "complain about winter weather anytime in late fall through the end of winter" requirement for the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
