Crazy temps!

[ZEROPILOT]

I've been adding protection to my outdoor pens because of recent Hawk sightings and the fact that its been in the low 60s as a high for a week or more.
Yesterday it was 83 degrees.
I don't see this crazy crap going on anywhere else in the country.
This morning, every fish (That I could net to bring inside) and tortoise went back outside.
For how long? Who knows.

I need to move.
Your weather is (was) 79' higher than mine right now.

That would even be cold by my "Polar bear" standards.

Sunny but windy. Not warm enough for torts to go out.

Today in my corner of the world we have had sun, rain, sleet, snow, hail with thunder and lightning thrown in for good measure; the day temps were no higher than 4'C but feeling much colder because of the freezing high winds. It has been very weird weather and I've been waiting for the plague of locusts but its probably too cold for them!

I'm not really a hot weather person but I can't wait for the higher temps to let Lola out into the garden - think it will be a while yet.

I do feel for you warm weather dwellers getting these cold temps. It's normal for us that we are always prepared for it and it's not as cold for us as it is you. Even when our temps are way lower then you will probably ever get. Hang in there, it will pass for you much faster then for us

A high of 5 today and a low of -7 with windchills of -20. I'm with you, tired of these crazy temps. Much too late in the year to be this cold.

The worst I've ever experienced was -30's, with a windchill a lot lower….The kind of cold that makes you ache in your bones. I love living in Florida, so much….Haha More than ready to be done with this winter.

I believe at one point last week, it was colder in NE Ohio than it was in Antarctica. I am so over this weather, though my tortoises are worshiping their heat lamps.

Hopefully it's all warm from here on out.

I'd be happy with any thing other than wind and rain atm. its been none stop for 3 days. we have floods every where and we cant walk on the garden never mind putting the tort out lol. lets hope for a decent summer.

CharlieM, I have some blue Talapia in a fish pond. Rescued from a live tank in a Chinese restaurant.
My Koi and Goldfish love the cold.
I actually have several very large Cichlids purchased from Chinese grocery stores.
Some are quite colorful.

I've always wanted to visit England. I got talked into a trip to Japan a few years ago. That trip will have to wait.

I'm on the cumbrian coast right on the edge of the lake district. its a beautiful place to live but it makes for some crazy weather patterns lol. we have floods here but 20 mins drive away they have a ft of snow.

It's been crazy here in TX too. It was 80 on Sunday and the high yesterday was 43 and it right at freezing this morning.

Oh there's sun It's just not doing squat.

I love that picture of the Golden Gate bridge. I lived in San Francisco for about 15 years before I got married and moved to Fresno.

Looks like maybe all you were missing was fog. Br-r-r-r
