Additional Comments: Thought of BB when I saw it was really cold in Georgia. Also, Sammie as it has been bad in Illinois. My sister lives there and the wind chill was in the minus double digits. Here in Southern Utah it hasn't been bad. Lows in the high twenties, low thirties and most days it gets to be in the fifties. It's been in the 70s in CA where my daughter lives and where I wish I were.

Damp and cold for Texas. 40's and 50's this week, colder last week down into the 20's. We're not used to it.

I'm in Ontario, and at this moment it is -9 degrees Celsius, but with the wind chill, it is -17...so CHILLY!!! I think that's just a little over 1 degree Fahrenheit...though someone better with conversions may be able to correct or verify that! Brrrr.........

LOL, even though I lived in Australia for three years, I never mastered the conversion chart. You can imagine what my cooking was like./mm

Hey Skullys Girl here in Vancouver it is raining and the temperature is supposed to go to 11 degrees celsius or about 50 F. Of course next week we could be freezing too. I guess we shouldn't complain when we see what is happening in Europe and the U.K right now.

mm, I can easily convert measurement, weight, speed etc. in my head, but have never mastered temperature. eom/D

I'm in Tennessee and it's so freakin' cold we can't stand it. The high today was 18 and the low was 9. As someone pointed out, they don't even sell coats down here for this type of weather. Luckily, it will be back in the upper 40s (normal temps!) by late next week.

Well up here in the Great White North it isn't too bad. I think today it will be chillier than we have had it the last few days around 3 degrees celsius or 36 F. Haven't had much snow on the ground but Whistler has lots for the Olympic Games next month.

I feel like a weenie for complaining, but it's been in the high 30s and low 40s here in South Florida. That's just crazy, and we're freezing to death! Orange and strawberry crops are at risk.

Here in Alabama it is 23 right now, at 11:10 pm. Supposed to be in the low teens tonight. It should be this way all week from what I've heard. I HATE this. I hate cold weather and I'm not used to these frigid temps. AL is not supposed to be this way! Where is that global warming????

mm and Roxie, it was 19 yesterday in Macon !! Global warming my hind foot !!! LOL at AlGore !!! BB***

P.S. Roxie, my husband and I are all about *Hook 'em Horns

I'm sorry, BB, but if you really think an isolated cold snap means that global warming doesn't exist, you need to do some research. You're very simplistically confusing *weather* with *climate.* eom/D

Believe me, I have done my rsearch and I stand by my statement...BB**

Oh, maggie, you just had to ask? :) While the country is blanketed in snow and I feel so bad for those who are struggling with the cold weather, it was 78 degrees here today. It's been in the low 70's and high 60's pretty much all winter. We get a few cloudy days from time to time but most days are bright and sunny.

This morning as one of my teacher neighbors was going for a walk, I asked her if she was enjoying winter break from school and she said, *This is winter?* *Doesn't seem like it,* I responded. We are most fortunate to live here in Southern California.

Wish I were there. In fact I'll be there in February. Hope the good weather holds out./mm

Frigid!!! Down in the single digits at night- not reaching 20 during the day- with the wind chill today it is 7 degrees outside! We expect an accumulating show on Thursday- and we don't do snow very well around here, LOL!
