All the semis are stuck. Tulsa only has 50 salt trucks. The Broken Arrow Expressway is down from 4 lanes each way to only one. The other three are piled high with snow from what they have cleared..

We were experiencing a heat wave, it was only -18.  Took the truck instead of the cycle.

Bugsy, thank you so much for those kind caring words.  You are a compasionate soul that begs a tear from me.  I would like to send you a heart warming gift.  Whats your home address again?  I'll over night this so it's still warm when it arrives.  While i'm at it i'll send along something nice to my dear friend that lives in Boca Raton and sends me daily screen shots of his weather forecast..

LOL, I had compassion once. Lost it in my first marriage. On the bright side, you'll be able to scoff at me soon when we hit 95 temp. / humidity every day for months. It sucks too. Take care my friend.


Now that is the twist of the deal.  Here in SD we freeze our posteriors off in the winter and deal with 90's and a good week or two of 100's all with high humidity.  Start to wonder why we live here exactly.
 
Sounds like the ideal place to train for marriage to me!!!! Cool

There are some days -- and nights -- when you simply aren't going to ride, no matter how prepared you are.

We got another 10 " but it is that lightweight Yankee snow. All fluff and no stuff.

We're supposed to get maybe 2 inches of snow tonight and it's supposed to get down to 15 degrees... that's like 2 feet and -40 degrees in Minnesota...

Maybe, maybe not.  I have had my bike out in that stuff.  Just keep both feet on the ground and it goes pretty good and the stability is ok.  At least here in Montana once you get enough below zero if feels the same down to about -25 then takes another step into cold.  It really is about having the right clothes.

I guess this global warming thing is only affecting Michigan.  All you mid-atlantic states and the south are getting more snow than we are here in Southern Michigan.  Lets see, the state is in massive deficit, we could rent out snow plows and salt trucks to our snow bound neighbors to the south...  I'm thinking windfall here.

dan, i can promise you with 100% certainty that -40 here is more tolerable than the 146 degrees above you endured elsewhere on the planet. when its that cold their are two solutions, put more clothes on, or stay inside and Coffee. when its 146 degrees outside you got nothing more to take off and it wouldnt help any way. its not that bad i promise!! i hunt in -20 in november, you just dress for it and its no biggy.Big Grin

New record low for Oklahoma this morning. -28 deg. It was a balmy -18 at my house on the digital themometer. Probably have a hard time starting the tractor again.
