This is fucking bullshit

[Jon325i]

You desert folks are used to living in convection oven-like temps......so its no surprise to hear you say this.

36F may seem chilly.....but its not 'cold.' To me, cold is defined as anything below zero....and the coldest exposure I've ever experienced was when I was skiing at Squaw Valley where the wind-chill had it feeling like it was 4 below zero. Now that is cold.

36? haha.. that's weaksauce. I can't wait for it to drop to 0 with a constant 70mph wind from the northeast.. now that's cold. ;)

global warming is just the natural process that takes place and warms the earth. The earth goes through periods of warming and cooling and scientists make big deals about it. It also switches off in the 80's we where gonna freeze to death so petroleum prices went up and then in the 90's we where all gonna burn to death. All that shit is stupid

fuel prices have nothing to do with global warming, and everything to do with supply and demand. and the amount of CO2 we emit every day is certainly not just part of the natural process...

[Ryan Stewart]

There are 3 different conversations going on.

Fuel prices crude oil prices are two different things. However both are driven in a large amount by specualtion.

Global warming exists but not in the magnitude people want to believe. La Nina has a greater effect on the climates than humanity.

I always thought it did get cold in AZ, is 36 the high? I remember it getting pretty chilly at nights there.

[M-technik-3]

Yeah, it was 21 degrees here last night. I think it was the first time in my life I've ever scaped ice off my windshield :!:

What did you use? A credit card?

[bkelsey86]

I never said gas prices caused global warming........It is supply and demand, so in theory more petroleum would be used when it was colder thus wouldn't the demand for it be higher? I'm in no way saying that global warming is made up to make our gas prices higher.

[UNHCLL]

To throw one more convo into the mix....

Its f'in raining here in NH (at the coast) THIS SHOULD BE SNOW!!!! :evil:

[MR 325]

It's even cold here in SoCal, WTF!

[e30sd]

Some friends of mine were walking down the street on the first cool day of the fall this year, it got to a low of 53 that day. There was a girl standing alone at the bus stop crying and shivering. They got concerned and asked if she was ok and she replied "is this as cold as it gets here?" Haha it turned out she was from California, my friends were wearing tee-shirts. I wish I could see her in January and February when it actually gets cold.

No shit...this is NOTHING. What, like low 40s?

[KDZROK]

Canada Owns us all...

Yes its cool here too, 50 mph winds as well, must be all along the east coast.

BUT MAN, I would take Washington DC's WORST winter over the winter I spent in Calgary.

On average that winter it was -40 below!
The second coldest place I have lived would be Gunnison Colorado. Just down the mountain from Crested Butte. On average -20 below...3 to 5 feet of snow all winter. They never even bothered scraping the city streets, they would just sand them. We drove around on about 3 to 4 inches of packed snow, all winter.

Damn I miss Colorado, the skiing at Crested Butte was WONDERFUL

[BMW BMXER]

2 degrees is cold :roll:

Put on a hooded sweatshirt and be done with it.

[spencers]

Yeah, it was 21 degrees here last night. I think it was the first time in my life I've ever scaped ice off my windshield :!:

Yeah, same here!!!

[decay]

it is bloody f***ing cold out here lately.

& no, "just over freezing" may not be that cold in absolute terms-

but considering that most of the summer here involved ~110deg temps, we're talking about a swing of almost 80 degrees in what, 3 months?

you can call us pussies after YOU'VE dealt with both extremes.

but hey, at least my car runs really strong in this weather. time to finally get those 19lb'ers in.
