What meteorological phenomenon (phenomena) affects you this day ? - Page 641

SneakySnake · 06-11-2011, 05:59 AM

yes we are winter wusses. And no we don't have the heater on. Yet!

Our power bill is going in the credits and I want it to stay that way. Although I will give in if it gets really cold. Say 10°C tops or lower.

Unfortunately because of the coudy rainy days we have been having the hot water booster will have to go on tommorrow (unless it is a sunny day) if I want a hot bath. and I aint having a cold one or a cold shower neither. Not that money saving bothering.

Do you think I could move into the gallery for a while? I could be one of your exhibits! Performance art?

How is the showing going?

It was cold enough for the heater to be on 2 days ago, then it shot up to the 80'sF yesterday, now it is windy, cloudy, and cool. It's 66F and not predicted to get much warmer unless we lose the cloud cover and the wind. Brrr (again).

Well, it' been rather quiet so far. If you've got friends in Paris, send them over there, OK?

But I'm happy withg the exhibition anyway. I took some photos, I'll post them in the "what are you doing" thread.

poohbear_nc · 06-11-2011, 05:52 PM

101 F on the deck .... sigh ... where do you people live who are complaining of the cold? Got any spare rooms?

kindlekitten · 06-11-2011, 08:14 PM

I'm not complaining!

iq6000 · 06-11-2011, 09:27 PM

Still cold, yes I have no heater and yes my house is the same temperature inside as outside. It is designed to catch the breeze to keep cool in summer. Also I probably should shut my kitchen window and my bathroom window (they are only open a little bit, I normally only shut those windows if the rain is coming in during our summer storms). I don't think it would make much of a difference because it is not at all windy, and my house is totally not insulated in any way. This overcast and rainy weather is really unusual here, my house is normally warm in winter because our winters are sunny and cool, and it faces north so we just open the curtains and doors at the front of the house and the sun warms up the inside. We are usually only cold at night and the simple solution is to put on a jumper or go to bed.
We are only expecting a top of 16 C. It is really annoying because it is the weekend, it is the only time I hang around in my house, and I need to get my washing dry which is not easy in cold damp air. It is supposed to warm up during the week but I will be at work then.
Well I am going to drag that wii out again so I can warm myself up.

I seem to remember a similar conversation when you were feeling too cold and it was summer here.

Hop in the trebuchet you can stay in the spare room! I am warning you there is no heater.

At first I read this as "I am warMing you there is no heater."

FlorenceArt · 06-12-2011, 01:45 AM

Sunny and still chilly, but possibly a bit warmer than yesterday.
