Still below freezing here but only by a few degrees and the wind has died down. It felt almost tropical! Well, maybe not. I still wore a long wool coat, scarf and hat, but most of the day I left my mittens in my car!

Windchill temp (WC) here is only -22C but it's -11C so it's time we invented a new "feels like" temp scale for the interior of a building. I'd suggest the Kee Kee* (KK). Such a scale would indicate the perceived effect of the combination of ambient temp and wind on the average indoor temp over time by taking into account the measure of the rate of heat loss from a building and the proportional length of the heating system cycle above and below the thermostat setting, that is, the the ratio of the length of time during which the interior temp is lower than the thermostat setting to the length of time above it. Perhaps a specific example would more clearly illustrate the premise for my proposal than a continuation of the discussion in the above manner. For such purpose, I will use an example which relates to my experience as I type.

Heating system : central electric forced air; cycle +/- 2C

Case 1 : -20C, -30WC.
Cycle off - 15 minutes
Cycle on - 20 minutes

Case 2 : -10C, -30C.
Cycle off - 10 minutes
Cycle on - all fuckin day












* Kee Kee Keeriste it's cold!

"Good for something"... well, if your beer NEEDS to be cold to be palatable.. *grin*.

Here in the metro Wash DC area, we are durned chilly at about 110F, but no snow and no major issues... (except for a few old water mains cracking and some very cold repair crews).

I am not exactly used to this in recent years, but 60 years ago I walked a paper route in Wichita, Kans. in 20F.... a time or two. I did shopping just BEFORE the Big Chill, so we can stay inside till it eases a bit on Thurs.

Inconsistent! Colder than usual with snow and extreme windchill Thursday and Friday, still cold Saturday, less so Sunday, mild and rainy today but going down below freezing tonight so we're anticipating black ice in the morning. And I have to go back out before bedtime to raise my car's windshield wipers into the snowstorm salute so they won't freeze to the windshield. Wish I'd remembered to do that when I parked it.

Wow, maeve, that's kind of a meteorological flipping the switch on and off again quickly - a freeze after all of that water? Ouch!

For North Texas we're threatened with rolling blackouts or brownouts today because of the high demand for electricity - it got to 13o last night and is only going to come up to 32o during the day, then way down again tonight. We're not accustomed to so much of this, and temps this low are quite rare.

In Juneau, in southeastern Alaska, we've had nippy weather the last week or so, temperatures vacillating between 17 degrees to 7, Fahrenheit, of course. Not bad, at all, at least until the wind kicks up. Tonight we've been told that by tomorrow night we could have a heavy dump of snow, followed by rain, with snow showers for the next week or two. At the moment it is snowing lightly, and it's scuddering around on the pavement (asphalt). Still nippy.

CC (Carol for those who remember) awoke to a layer of snowy ice on her car this AM in SC. SC! BRRRRRRRRR! Earliest snow in SC ever, I believe.

Our weather is up down hellwest and crooked as is the norm in fall. The Yanks send us warm air (mostly rains) from the south. It stalls when it hits the Atlantic just north of PEI. This hot air rises and sucks in cold air from the north and west of us. This repeats in ever dwindle temperatures until the Yanks stop sending us warm air and then we endure a never boring winter, at best. So, as a Herring Choker, I blame the Yanks for all this mayhem. Screw Free Trade. I want a Free Weather Agreement. I sall write a Goddamn letter to that effect to my MP forthwith with forthwit.

First snow of the season in RI today, at least in my part, but I think it was the first snow anywhere in this state. And in my part it was the fat, wet stuff. I heard there were some cars skidding on the roads, but the time I left this morning at 9 AM the roads I drove on were wet but not slippery.

Snow at this time of year is early, although we have sometimes had snow even earlier.
