Damn cold right now on the Cdn praries!!!
 
I'm in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan right now and at the moment it is -29F but with the windchill it feels like -49F.:argh:

I had to go out on a couple calls for work earlier and forgot to put my boots on the heater the day before and they were still wet, only took about 5 mins before everything was frozen c@ck stiff. .... all I can think about is sitting on the beach in Mexico in 3 weeks, cant bloody wait!

Jazz 12-14-2008 03:56 AM

That is very cold. Be careful out in that kind of cold:U:
That sure would make a beach in Mexico sound pretty nice

busta 12-14-2008 08:40 AM

have fun bill
all i can say is layers,layers, layers and remember frost bite burns like a bitch when unthawing

atrd86 12-14-2008 04:14 PM

All you gotta due is suffer a couple days in some cold weather with just jeans and a jacket on and that way when the real cold comes it aint so bad.
Just after I started this I got a call out and just got home and I finally decided to break out the old one piece winter suit out and I actually had to take a my spring jacket off from under the one-zie cause I was starting to sweat..... Its all about the conditioning.:ok1:

O man your missing out. A hot cup of coffee never tasted so good as when you can smell it but gotta wait till your eyelashes melt open so you dont miss and burn your face.

Jazz 12-14-2008 05:13 PM

My idea of conditioning is "AIR" conditioning:c:

Lil Red Express 12-14-2008 05:19 PM

Actually funny story this morning I was called out again at 4am and had a bunch of useless crap that gets installed that supposed to deflect snow which really ends up just trapping it, but anyway I had to remove it and that cold (again about -50F) and that early I had no patience so my tool of choice was crow bar instead of socket wrench, as I used one big grunting pry to get the crap off I must have drooled a bit and being on a big hill it was quite windy and when I got back in the truck I looked and had about a 6" piece of drool frozen straight out horizontally from being bent over..... it made me laugh wish the phone wasnt frozen so I could have taken a pic

WTF are you guys talking about, I was sweating my butt off, yesterday while off-loading & loading airplanes under the hot sun, it was in the high 80's, I think I got sun-burn :humm:

K50 12-16-2008 10:48 AM

It was -30 celsius yesterday morning with at least 6" of snow on the ground. I hate this crap, time to move to San Antonio permanently.
