7. Hey, it's 35 here in Houston....
And the projected high is only 51. Tomorrow will be chilly, too. But highs for the rest of the week will be around 70.

Houston summers suck. But there are compensations.

10. utterly miserable
so it is house to car, car to work, no extra time out doors.

Unfortunately, I do have to work outdoors tomorrow .... not looking forward to it.

Last Friday it was 75 degrees.

Right now it is 26 degrees, and with wind chill feels like 14, according to weather.com.

16. nothing like walking down those NYC streets on a cold windy day
I remember walking around the corner and suddenly have tears streaming down my face from the cold. Manhattan is a series of wind tunnels, one on each block.

17. I hear ya! I have perma-nip.

Today is *supposed* to begin a warm up, for us. If this fails to occur, our local weather man may have to lose his manhood.

20. My toes are still cold from waiting for the train.
I take NJ transit and all the platforms are above ground. Of course, of all days, the train was a half-hour late. It wasn't so much the temperature, it was the wind!

24. It's freaking COLD here too.
BRRRRR..... :( Walking from my car to my office was awful this morning. I nearly froze my butt off. :( It's still there, though.

It's not supposed to get very warm today (37, I think). :cry:

25. If it is so cold and miserable...
Why do so many continue to endure it? We have parts of the country that are warm right now.

27. I know. But moving there and/or taking a vacation to those parts right now is
cost-prohibitive for most of us. :) I'd love to visit Florida right this minute! :D

29. It's supposedly 32 degrees here in the Atlanta area.
Edited on Fri Dec-08-06 12:45 PM by RebelOne
But it feels a lot warmer than that outside. The sun is shining brightly and I'm able to go outside without my parka.

32. If it makes y'all feel any better
its freezing in the Keys too. At least for us. Everyone is wearing their winter clothes. Heck of a wind blowing. Straight out of the north.

33. That moving out of NYC was worth it
It went all the way down to the mid-40's last night! I almost had to turn the heat up :-)
