Ah, the tepid waters of the gulf where the water can be as warm as your bath and if I remember correctly, salty enough to float in while reading a book.

Heart attack snow.

You're right, just a little correction: that salty part, is about the Dead Sea, in Israel. Cool place, if you can go there! We have some salt lakes, but with lesser salinity.Ah, the tepid waters of the gulf where the water can be as warm as your bath and if I remember correctly, salty enough to float in while reading a book.

I used to swim at a place called Half Moon Bay of the Saudi coast close to Dharan. That was quite salty and I might add, at times full of sea snake but as you say, not a salty as the Dead Sea which I swam in when in Jordan, the water was so still and quiet.

No snow yet. Temp has been in 65 to 70 F range so far this winter. Rain the last two weeks culminating in a flurry of tornados (not Hawker). It reminds me of my youth playing football in the park in shorts and tee shirt (1956-59). Winter is alleged to appear for real, shortly.

FUBAR 57's weather should be here this week. Maybe even snow. Lows in the teens (F) on the Gulf coast is a damn shame.

Makes my stomach churn just reading that. How can you live let alone work in those conditions.

Looks like we might get a white Christmas this year. Snow showers expected Wednesday and Thursday. Then the temps fall to between -1 F (-18 C) and 5 F (-15 C) on Friday. Warms up a bit on Saturday to 12 F (-11 C).

Used to get those Sorel boots for the line workers tending to the Snowy Mountain Hydro power lines. It was cold up there in the winter but nothing like your cold.

Pretty sad when you have to wear the above kit to take the garbage can to the end of the drive-way

Same here. We also shut down for the holidays.

Working nites through X-mas. Always nice to have a full turkey dinner for breakfast, heading off to work and waiting for the tryptophan to kick in. (I know its a myth but still.....)

We're working the holidays, but with everything in turmoil due to the incident last week, coupled with the indecisiveness of management, I volunteered to not work. Going to spend quite a few hours with the plasma cutter and the MiG welder at the house instead.
