Definitely farenheit and with wind chill :y

Pikeville, Kentucky was -4°F today, with -25°F expected overnight. Still bastid freezing however you spell temperature  :D

Imagine the consequences if that rain we're having had fallen as snow :o

Any mention of it heading this way?

I heard earlier that if wind turns from north then all this rain we've been having will turn to the white stuff pretty quick :)

Saw an interesting news report on it, the presenter standing in the street all wrapped up.

Boiling water poured into a cup, he tossed the cup into the air...... the water never hit the ground, it turned into vapour/snow mid-air  :o
