gsedanman:

Are you Easterners sending us YOUR cold weather? Walking from the parking lot at work this morning, I almost froze my face off with the wind coming out of the east! By the time I got to the front door, my eyes were watering like crazy!
BTW, yesterday's temperature just south of Edmonton at the Airport recorded -43.6 degrees C. That's -46.5 F for Merlin and the gang! Mind you, I heard that it's getting chilly enough down in the Sunshine State to worry the citrus growers.[img]/w3timages/icons/frown.gif[/img]

 

I'll take Merlin's mid 30F anytime. At that temperture I'd be at the beach instead of freezing my butt here in Mtl. Today we only registered -17 C on the car's thermometer. By the way gordgee, did you register that -43C on your G's thermometer ?

 

No, that was the official temp out at the airport. The lowest I got here in the south end of the city is the same as EdRedS with a -30.

 

Man, what a difference a few days makes! Prior to just over a week ago, our temps were fairly moderate and we had almost no snow on the ground (refer to the pic from the Alberta G Meet) https://g35driver.com/forums/showfla...=5&part=3&vc=1
My patio table was almost dry! Now look at it! You can hardly even see the pool anymore as well!
We're also expecting a few more inches of the white stuff over the next couple of days!

It's probably not any consolation Gord, but they're 'freezin' their orange's off' in Fla....... Nice pic.

In back, I usually just shovel part of my deck off to get to the BBQ. Thanks anyway. Yes, I still BBQ in the winter unless it gets down to -20 or lower. I have to quit then because the ***** on the Weber won't turn! [img]/w3timages/icons/blush.gif[/img] If I absolutely HAVE to, I'll fire up the patio heater which I move beside the BBQ and let it heat up enough so I can turn the *****.[img]/w3timages/icons/laugh.gif[/img]

I'm SO embarassed[img]/w3timages/icons/blush.gif[/img][img]/w3timages/icons/blush.gif[/img][img]/w3timages/icons/blush.gif[/img]
When I started my snowblower up the first time this year the other day, I forgot that I drained ALL of the oil out this summer intending to put fresh oil in before first use. Well of course the engine seized but luckily after it cooled, I managed to get it turned over by pulling on the cord while cranking the electric starter. Not sure how much damage I did, but it seems to start okay now. Not sure if the semi-synthetic 0w-30 that I used helped in any way. Now THAT would be a test! Put in DuraLube (or whatever), run the engine, drain the oil, and start 'er up in 6 months!

 

Oh my, no oil. damn, I knew there was something. I knew it!
I guess with all the racket you couldn't here the bearings?
Anyway log onto this website and they'll give a few tips on improving your memory ..: ummmm- www.
