@shakahislop might actually get some snow tomorrow, finally. Nothing so far this winter, probably get a blizzard in march

alas, again too warm for snow. just an overcast day with rain, reminding Shaka of the motherland.

 

[shakahislop]

on the plus side, spring is just round the corner. the winter here never seems too bad to me, much eaisier to deal with than the english one at least

 

[Leo]

Positive spin! February is still winter, March can be pretty blustery, and plenty of April opening day games at Yankee Stadium are still times for glove-wearing. although point taken, I haven't worn gloves or a scarf once so far this winter, only a couple of days with a hat.

Came here to tag you with the ol' "cold enough for ya?" but you beat me to it. the wind chill is killer, real-feel well below zero in the afternoon/overnight, was 9 degrees with real-feel of -5 this morning. but hold tight: 45 tomorrow, low 50s later in the week.

this planet is so fucked.

layers, with thermal underwear (long johns) a must. Gus must have plenty of experience with Wisconsin winter temps. lose lots of body heat through feet and head, so warm socks/boots and a hat required.

keep those ears covered, Shaka.

keep those ears covered, Shaka.

Or don't. Because head and ears uncovered = better exposure to negatively charged ions.

Best is actually one of those duffle coats with fur-lined hood, protects both head and neck and minimizes expose skin.

Burnt my forehead a bit sitting out in the sun today ☀️

it was class this morning, no one about, bright blue sky, the roads are doing that kind of white thing where they've been gritted, everyone bundled up. i got some pizza and it was steaming on the paper plate in the slice shop, it was getting cold within like a minute. everything is a bit calmer.

i was in ray's pizza on st marks briefly and some glam geezer had a fluffy little dog that was fussing over some girl, pawing at her dangling scarf, very charming scene, everyone happy, and then it lifted up its leg and pissed on her a little bit

probably over the coming years everyone is going to have a moment when they realized in a very concrete way that climate change is in progress, a real thing that we are going to experience rather than an abstract one. i think that's today for me. it's 18 degrees celcius in mid-February, bright blue sky, almost warm enough to sunbathe, t-shirt weather probably (not that i've been outside yet today).
