The International Cessna^® 170 Association

We hit the High Temp for the day at 5:45 am at a minus 10 (-10 F) .......at 7am it is now a -14 and dropping. We are to reach a -30 by tomorrow a.m. with wind chills to reach a -55 to -70.......yikes!!!!

It's so cold here I can't get my dogs to go outside........it's 34F here.

Willie, you better head for Texas Its supposed to get to +1 here tonight. This ole boy doesn't know how to handle these temps

Frank

Texan in Tennessee

Supposed to be 64 here today in beautiful central California.

I think I'll go flying.

Plugged the170 in and planned to fly yesterday before it got really cold, but couldn't get the hangar door opened. So instead we went ice fishing!

I'm trying to remember - we do we live here????

Willie,
The cows are all snug in the byre, so add and extra log to the fire and watch some playoff football!

Italy was a chilling 50 degrees today.

Too bad I fly home in two days to 15 degrees

I work for a company with an office in the Twin Cities. I was there a few weeks ago during some zero degree weather. Walking down the hallway I overheard a guy say, "My wife told me to put on a long sleeved shirt. I told her I'd put on a long sleeved shirt when real winter gets here!" I'm guessing he's done that now.

Sunday, 5 Jan 14, 1340 hours, 68 f degrees on my front porch. It was some cooler this morning at 0700 when I went out to pick three oranges for my morming OJ fix. But we have a state income tax, an 8 per cent sales tax, and Gas costs about $3.50 per gallon!

Although not a heat wave, it was in the mid to upper 50's today so I spent some time changing the oil in the plane and unpacking some things in the hangar. Schools closed tomorrow as the high is forecasted to be around 8 degrees!!!! Tough on us southerners

I thought of you when I heard the forecast, because its been 4 years this week since our last serious cold spell. I think we discussed some of the humorous and not so humorous points of that event. I hope you fare well

7pm and we just hit -55 wind chill...... I think it's going to be a little brisk come morning.........

I'm guessing that was by choice and if so prices were good. I sold way down too just a couple months ago. Makes life much simpler at times like these.

Stay warm everybody

6° in central Illinois currently with a windchill of -20°. We're supposed to get down to -16° tonight with a windchill I've heard of greater than -50°. I've never experienced such cold anywhere I've lived. Luckily, I haven't had the need to go outside today, nor will I tomorrow, it seems. My work has been tentatively closed, and my wife's work may be closed tomorrow as well. Crossing my fingers that our power doesn't go out.

Frost last night, 38 today, and our daffies are up.
