Title: It's getting rather brisk...
Post by: Armalite_ on December 11, 2012, 07:27:32 PM

It's soooooo cold outside. What sucks too is that it's sunny and dry at a chilling -4C.


I never want to go outside now. I hate having to put on layers of clothing to go outside even for a short time because there's not even snow, it's just really cold and windy and everything just freezes over. I only wear ball shorts, a t-shirt and hoody out of laziness and desperation. Then I run back inside when I get home and stand over my heating unit. xD


When I'm at work (I work in a kitchen) I stand over the deep-fryers to de-frost after my smoke breaks because I'd have to steal a jacket from one of the walk-in freezers which I don't usually get to do since my supervisor is usually in there counting stock.




Just wondering how cold it is where you live and what you do to keep warm this time of year.

Though it's been on the warm side around here lately (30's to mid-40's F), it tends to get as low as 10/20 below around here.
Typically this is when I pull out the fuzzy boot-slipper and an extra blanket for my bed. But like my friends, when it comes to going out, the heaviest wear I have is pants, T-shirt and a hoodie, if that x3.

It's about 78 F here. I wear t-shirts in order to stay cool. XD



Though personally, I wish it was colder. I love winter clothes.

This morning I got uncomfortably cold for the first time this year, despite the fact that I was wearing my all-weather gear. (A T-shirt and jeans)

Blah, it's cold as hell around here.


The sickening thing is that everyday below zero has been dry and sunny while every warmer day it's been raining.  T_T
We had a big storm about 10 days ago that left a bunch of snow on the ground but then it rained for a week straight.

It's only around -4 to -5 C this morning, which I find rather welcoming after last week (around -20 to -25 C).
I usually wear a winter jacket, jeans, gloves, a beanie and warm enough shoes for winter. If it's colder than -20 C, I usually add a scarf.

I remember my trip to Scandinavia being about that cold.  :P

It can get chilly at times but we have warm summers to compensate for that. Around here where I live, it can get up to 20-30 C at best.

Yeah, I remember my dad talking about that since he travels to Finland from time to time. I'd love to visit again sometime.  ^_^

But I like the cold air and scenery it provides. It's refreshing.
Though Australia is on the list of places I'd like to travel one day.
For now, hooray for winter!

Trade ya'! *thirty or forty degrees here* Not enough snow around here, though. D: At least we have the mountains and all that.

If I could personify Washington and Oregon... it would be two someones with intense mood swings. Just can't decide how to be, these states. One moment, it's a hot summer, then the next it's a freezing-cold winter.

All of this reminds me of my favorite winter song, "It's Cold Outside"!

In Californyyah, it gets to like 33F at most outside and I walk around with shorts and a short sleeved t-shirt. I love this time of year, I look forward to it, every-single-day of Spring to early Autumn. I hate hot weather, very very much. I'd swim in in cold water all the same and I have before. I used to love standing outside in elementary school when it was 30F at 7am, picking frost off the fences and producing makeshift snowballs with my bare hands. LIVE FOR WINTER.

Go Team Winter!

I'd pick being too cold over being too warm any day. Must be cuz I'm Canadian...

I was gonna blow you all away with my winter coldness, but then Maine decided not to be cold this year.

it regularly drops below zero fahrenheit recently especially with the wind x3. I love the snow but sadly it doesn't seem to like me very much XP .
