OK... How Cold Was It
where you are? This morning it was 13 degrees here in New Castle with a high of only 27. This is the lowest I've seen in the last couple of years. Global warming eh?
And to make it more fun. Saturday a high of 45 and Sunday a high of 59. Isn't life grand? LOL

It is 9 F now and -13 predicted tonight and it is breezy to boot. My acclimation up here is I don't feel cold until under 10 and the minus's where your eyeballs freeze me no like.

I had -12 yesterday and -3 this morning. It is supposed to get up to 14 this afternoon and tomorrow with lots of snow in the forecast. Sunday is showing the snow tapering off, but lows at -14 and highs of -3.
April can't get here soon enough.

I think the Pacific stream is going to keep shoving storm after storm eastward thru NW and into WI Craig, we have seen thru fall here and has continued.... I feel a big snow year here. Mountains have a ton here already.

It was 68f here yesterday

Crazy Yo-Yo weather around here. Stalled out in the high 20's with lot of moisture in the air, then peaked about 35 yesterday afternoon, before sliding down to 30 & Sleet & slick roads @ drive time, lot of wrecks. Front came through by 8:00 PM & it had warmed up into the 40's by 10 PM. Supposed to hit 60 today, then the bottom drop out omorrow, get down to single digits by late Sat night. Heading back outdoors, have couple hours left on an excavator, then several ricks of firewood to move.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
