I put my snow tires on a few weeks ago, and made sure I had gloves and the ice scraper handy. Because December.

I wore a heavier jacked than I should have morning. As I was getting out of the car, I noticed this and thought, "WTF is winter?"

I even rode the motorbike to work twice this week.

I keep thinking I should be pulling a bike out, or something to ride. But I know as soon as I get it out the storm clouds and bitter cold will roll in

It was 65 here in DC this morning. Low of 39 forecasted, it already dropped 20 degrees on my commute.

Dogs and Cats, living together!

In Canada, we don't use ice scrappers, we use our bare hands. Don't even get me started on gloves.. Toques though, plenty of toques, not uncommon to see me wearing toques on toques on toques. We love that shit.
-5*C here this morning, or 23 fake celsius

That's what I expect in December. Not this 65 shit when I get dressed for work, expecting a high of 40-45.

(If it makes you feel any better, it's dropping - should be in the mid 30s tonight)

I was just showing you your future. It was in the upper 50's this week, until today.

-2 right now, or -19 C. Looking at a high of 9, or -13 C. Gotta love Denver!

I love scrapping ice! I hate scraping it though. How do you scrap ice?

I like to shout at it first, followed by vigorous flicking. Then when things heat up it usually melts like a coward.

This morning I actually thought about putting my summer tread back on because it was 50 for a few days here in WI

Doesn't it bug you that +9 is still below the freezing point of water?
"oh nice, it's +25 today" then you eat shit on ice walking to your car.
Where as I say "oh nice, it's +25 today" then go to the beach

Having used Fahrenheit exclusively for going on 31 years now, I can say with utmost certainty that no, it does not bug me at all
