Man...what a fukkin cold winter this is...

[JohnnyKickAss]

This is the coldest winter in years...its so damn cold here in Germany that I'm leaving the house only if its absolutely necessary...Tonight its going to be 12 F(I did convert from Celsius to Fahrenheit for you guys...)and next sunday its going to be 5 F at night...Yeah I know thats not so that cold...I mean in the antartic its colder,but on the other hand I'm not living there...Seriously...I'm not used to that anymore the last few winters were all pretty balmy and now this...The worst thing is we have a cat,a stray,who came to us 4 year ago for a visit and then just stayed...that stupid tomcat is to afraid to come inside the house and stays all year outside and even though he gets more than enough to eat and got a cardboard with blankets inside, I'm getting worried that he may freeze...

Makes you think whats the deal with global warming if you can't walk aound in shorts during winter...

It's been really cold and stormy here as well. We normally only get a very small amount of snow, if any, but this year we got nearly 2 feet over a relatively short period. Other areas nearby got significantly more than we did. That probably doesn't sound like much to most people, but for here it's a shit load.

Last few winters here in Southern Ontario have not been unusually cold, but there has been more snow than usual.

Having lived in this area for twenty years, I have observed with my eyes the folliwing trends, due to climate change I guess.

Earlier, but not longer, springs.
Longer summers, but not necessarily hotter
shorter falls, coming a little later, with less variation in leaf color. More and more, many leaves just end up looking burnt brown in the fall.
More snow in the winters, especially in the last ten years.

Honestly man, I'd rather live with the climate here than where you are. It might rain all the time, the temp. might dip below -10 C several times a year, and sometimes we might even get a shit load of now, but I hate the heat. I just couldn't handle it over a long period.

Always remember the coldest night I slept out in a sleeping Bag it was 36 below. Slept like a log 1961 some winter, the Ice climbing was amazing.

No doubt the heat sucks, but Winters here are all I have to look forward to. When it gets up to 122 F (50 C) in the shade there's not much to like except water, A/C and out of town vacations.

Good move mate,back home .
I heard yesterday that gas has stopped being piped down from Russia so some poor Northern Europeans are without any heating too!

Killing some people, all over non paid bills between large gas companies!


Shit I just thought of something , where did Autwitz get there gas from back in the day, was that all pumped down from another country or from Russia too?
