    Awoke to snow yesterday. It's been around 25 F to 34F at night. I heard Portland was like an ice skating rink---they're about 90 miles north of Springfield.

    I love the heat and dislike the cold. I have roofed in 113 degree heat and handled it OK.

    Once I had a job on the Oregon coast and 1 day after I started the job, it snowed! " just shovel the snow off and continue," the contractor said. I said "sorry---I have an important
    issue I need to take care of----waaaaaay south of here! He got someone else to finish. Yup--wimp when it comes to cold.

    Hello,

    7C and still no snow. But we have plenty of rain ;). About 50-70km south of here snow chains are required on some passes.

    Regards

    -20 Celcius (-4 Fah) on this exact moment. Finally forced me into wearing socks, and the fucking battery on my car drained, forcing me to re-schedule my plans because the damn thing won't move. They say Thursday is going to be even worse, with close to -30 C (-22 Fah) expected.

    I think the sun really helped as well. Makes it all more bearable. :)

    Yes it did. I went for a walk earlier and was worried I would freeze but was pleasantly surprised. I even left my jacket open on the walk home.

    Well, I'm still whining about my inside temp...it was 58F but has gone all the way up to 61F after using space heaters...but not 2 in the same room or that would blow a fuse.

    Kudos to you if you can actually tell the difference between 13 F and 13.3 F
