No! Hot water sprayed everywhere, turning to steam in the frigid cold. It took a good half an hour to figure out what to do. We've sustained damage, but its all frozen right now, so who knows when we'll get it all sorted. Yeah! I'm sick of these temperatures for sure. |

Oh Ron! You have no idea! Snow and all, I would find it very therapeutic to walk 'up the road and down the lane'. |
Ron Brind Posts: 19041 Joined: 26th Oct 2003 Location: England | Posted at 08:28 on 23rd January 2013 Light dusting of snow overnight in Wheatley, Oxford. The lane is as you imagine it Sue.....exactly! |
Sue H Posts: 8172 Joined: 29th Jun 2007 Location: USA | Posted at 13:33 on 23rd January 2013 We're hoping to get just above freezing this week. It has been a long haul of cold this past month. |
Cathy E. Posts: 8474 Joined: 15th Aug 2008 Location: USA | Posted at 16:24 on 23rd January 2013 Currently 20 degrees F with clear sunny skies. In the 20's all week! Hope you all are staying warm and dry. |
Ron Brind Posts: 19041 Joined: 26th Oct 2003 Location: England | Posted at 21:57 on 31st January 2013 Still raining here in Oxfordshire. The Rivers are unbelievably high, fast and about to overwhelm certain areas, and to cap it all the snow and ice looks like returning. |
Dave John Posts: 22335 Joined: 27th Feb 2011 Location: England | Posted at 22:44 on 31st January 2013 Bad news Ron, but why can't the governments and scientists of the world just admit to us what they know...... that the Earth and climate is changing and there is absolutely nothing we can do to prevent it........unfortunately!!!!! It happens every so many thousands and millions of years, they tell us that in TV programmes all the time so why can't they just accept that it is the natural progression of a planet. If a mere pleb like me can understand that why can't they? |
