Delta! 987 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 I don't know the exact temperature the past few days, but it has been hot during the day, with full blast sunshine, and then it becomes extremely windy at night, some young trees got blown over next to the road on the way to work. Hope we will have a cold winter Delta! 1 Link to comment

gogoblender 3,071 Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 I'm hoping our winter is over lol I know you do wall ball in the summer, are there any outdoor winter sports accesible for you? We have mountain right near us, snow shoeing and skiing is a way to cut through the winter doldrums... course getting out there in cold weather is always the big up hill challenge gogo Link to comment

No. Unfortunately. I don't mind going out in the cold to snow board or ski but I'd rather save that vacation time for tropical destinations or casinos. I like poker. A lot. So I get by playing POE or with my shows on tv until spring weather and vacation time. 1 Link to comment

SX255 630 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Rains, snows. rains again. Any yet we have a small lair of frozen snow. Sometimes the sun shines very strongly. Link to comment
Flix 5,116 Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Fairly warm given I'm in the south U.S. But... http://www.accuweather.com/en/us/mississippi/weather-radar BAD rain coming in now (I'm in the red parts in the south). I'm safe and snug inside, main problem is satellite internet likes to cut off when there's bad weather. 1 Link to comment
gogoblender 3,071 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I love that map you put up... where you live is so exotic compared to where I am... does it even snow there ever? My brother just came back from New Orleans with his GF, never realized how far the southern areas of US were from Western Canada where he flew in from... I'm getting an appreciation for the difference in temperature now. ahh, for some warm southern winds... gogo Link to comment
gogoblender 3,071 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 What a mess today... the entire landscape looks like a meteor site... pocked and riddled with icy craters that move and melt as slush mountains as you wade off and on sidewalks into gushing eddies of freezing water this is thursday hullo montreal gogo Link to comment
Delta! 987 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 My Boyfriend and I went away for an extended weekend. he currently works and lives in New York, but came to visit for 2 weeks. He flew back yesterday late. We went to the west cost of South Africa(not very far up but we will do that another time) stayed in St Helena bay the first two nights, very nice quaint guest house, we ate out most of the time, and always enjoyed the food, the weather was great(for me), sunshine, a breeze to just cool you down and cool evenings to snuggle and cuddle up... On Sunday we got drove to Paternoster (a famous South African seaside town) had a delicious lunch under the veranda of the restaurant on the beach. Sun was blazing, easily in the high 30's, but I never even sweated, once again the cold breeze cools you down. We drove further along the west coast then, and spent two nights at a lodge with their own private beach. weather there was also great, mild, I actually started getting cold in the shade, and we both got a bit sunburnt, we played cards on the beach for a few hours. weather in Stellenbosch is sunshine and a slight breeze Delta!

chattius 2,531 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Must be spring - when I came home from work my daughter laid hand in hand in the gras with her friend and watched cranes and wild geese returning. 1 Link to comment

Popular Post Knuckles 904 Posted March 17, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted March 17, 2016 Been a really mild winter....hardly any snow...maybe 20-30 inches total (last year was 110"). Temps have been running way above normal all season except for one weekend where we broke all-time records for coldest day ever....go figure So of course now that Spring is almost here, they are forecasting a Noreaster for Sun/Mon...possibly a foot of snow 2 Link to comment
