cetoole Posted December 9, 2009 Report Posted December 9, 2009 Bit of a change, eh Beefy? We had some snow last night, and the prediction was for more, plus ~1.5" of rain/ice, but it just rained a lot. Back roads were a bit of a mess, but nothing bad.
Beefy Posted December 9, 2009 Report Posted December 9, 2009 Bit of a change, eh Beefy? I can't think of a way to physically wear more clothes when outside, yet still feel so very, very cold. I'm sure I'll get used to it eventually.......?

jinp6301 Posted December 9, 2009 Report Posted December 9, 2009 Make sure you're wearing long underwear
Looser101 Posted December 9, 2009 Report Posted December 9, 2009 Also: Brandy. Or Thai. Or Indian. I guess some hot Thai or Indian food under your jacket will keep you warm.

Grahame Posted December 9, 2009 Report Posted December 9, 2009 Also: Brandy. Or Thai. Or Indian. Googling Hot Thai should get you hot under the collar. Some of them may even be called Brandy
mypasswordis Posted December 9, 2009 Report Posted December 9, 2009 Indeed I guess some hot Thai or Indian food under your jacket will keep you warm. FTFY

Oh, and hey, I didn't even know you could do that. And why does she have a penis?!?!? Edited December 9, 2009 by Dusty Chalk
guzziguy Posted December 9, 2009 Report Posted December 9, 2009 ... Still glad I don't have to shovel anything or fight through lame snow drivers, of course. You still have to fight through lame Bay Area drivers and, unfortunately, there are plenty of those. We had 1.5" of rain on Monday. Tomorrow a big storm is coming through. It's forecast to snow in the mountains just behind us. We may actually get our first freeze of the winter in Santa Barbara.
Asr Posted December 9, 2009 Report Posted December 9, 2009 The epic snowstorm from hell rolled through here 2 days ago and it was awesome. It was as cold as being on top of a mountain and I loved it. Around here snow rapidly melts though (something about living right at the base of a mountain) and it's already almost halfway vaporized (it stopped snowing last night finally).

grawk Posted December 9, 2009 Report Posted December 9, 2009 Spend feb in fairbanks. After that, you'll feel like the weather where you are is reasonable
spritzer Posted December 9, 2009 Report Posted December 9, 2009 California is a very large state with some awfully tall mountains (>14,000 ft). There are many places where it snows early and the snow remains well into late spring or early summer. Also, we have a cold current running down our entire coast unlike Iceland, which sits in the middle of the warm Gulf Stream. Those two factors make up a bit for the differences in latitude. I know, I know. At least you get a summer and not just some slightly warmer rain which is going slightly less sideways then usual.
Grand Enigma Posted December 9, 2009 Report Posted December 9, 2009 For those who noticed and/or care I slightly edited the Title to make it a little more work friendly. Nothing like one of my FF tabs reading F-ing snow.

It was as cold as being on top of a mountain and I loved it. Around here snow rapidly melts though (something about living right at the base of a mountain) and it's already almost halfway vaporized (it stopped snowing last night finally). We haven't had a big snow melt here in Colorado Springs yet. It snowed Sunday - Tuesday here, with a 2 hour school delay Monday and no school yesterday, and back to a 2 hour delay again today. I'm so glad I caved in and bought my 16 year old's Subaru some snow tires Monday, and the training I gave her during the previous two snowstorms on all season tires is paying off - she's doing well on the snow now.

Caved in? Riding with 3 seasons tires (there's is not such a thing as a 4 seasons tire BTW ...) in snowstorm? 16 years old behind the wheel? :eek: Again caved in? Come on. Amicalement from Qu
guzziguy Posted December 10, 2009 Report Posted December 10, 2009 I know, I know. At least you get a summer and not just some slightly warmer rain which is going slightly less sideways then usual. Yes, though in SB, summer is probably the worst season. I am lucky to live in one of the best climates in the world.
