Afternoon temps dropping into the low 80s

I wnat to hibernate indoors as soon as it reaches 75. I don't tolerate heat at all.

Meanwhile in this Polar Vortex, I can go outside without a coat on.

We moved here from the bay area about seven years ago. When we got here anything above 70 was suntan weather. Now, if it’s in the low 70’s I’m running for my down jacket. We can easily spot folks like you when you visit in the winter though. You’re the crazy folks dunning around in tank tops, shorts and flip flops when the temps are in the 50’s.

I've always hated summer and warm weather. I'd love to move to a place that doesn't have it. My body does not tolerate heat well.

You couldn't pay me a winning powerball ticket to visit a warm climate in the winter. That would be like telling a summer person to go visit Antarctica in July.

I like snow on postcards, otherwise I’ll take a beach in the tropics anyday.

Among my group of friends, my nickname is Elsa (Frozen).

saying she much preferred hurricanes to our winter storms. Oops.

I thought it was just a plain vanilla snowstorm.

“Some computer models are projecting a minimum central air pressure of below 950 millibars at its peak, which would be nearly unheard of for this part of the world outside of a hurricane,” wrote Mashable’s Andrew Freedman. “For comparison, Hurricane Sandy had a minimum central pressure of about 946 millibars when it made its left hook into New Jersey in 2012.”

Cant imagine losing power in this deep freeze. I dont even want to think about it. We’ve never, knock on wood, lost power during a winter storm, but uh, this seems different.

February. I have been sick w/ a terrible cold for the past 5 days. I dragged myself into work today and they sent me home since I was just coughing and blowing my nose non-stop. Luckily, I can wfh so I might just stay home tomorrow and Thursday so I don't have to deal w/ the storm and so I can hopefully recover from this cold.
