One of our local meteorologists said that the air that is going to come south next weekend is looking like about the coldest air he has ever seen.
He must be an awfully young meteorologist...
Yes, he is quite young, only in his late 20s, I believe. Still, when a meteorologist makes a comment like that, you know it's going to get pretty cold. I actually don't think it's going to get quite as cold as he thinks, but it is still going to be bitter. It will be tempered a bit by the fact that there won't be any real fresh snow on the ground.
CanadianPacific2816 - I don't think you understand what he was saying. He didn't mean that he can literally see the air, he just meant that it is some of the coldest that has ever come south while he has been around. Maybe he should have said that it is some of the coldest he has ever experienced rather than seen.

CW Thanks for putting out those delicious (sp?) pizzas as always!! Tonight I was so hungry I ate a whole large cheese pizza!
As CW said the train show at the Kentucky Convention Center was crowed! I had some trouble navigating the corners without running into anyone! I purchased two things. A C & O log book, for delay reports from 1928. I also purchased a PRR signal and brake rule book from 1944 ( I HAD to by that one it was printed at PRR's headquaters in my home town Philadelphia, PA!)
Here are some of the shots I got yesterday.

Hey Lance, I just looked at your pictures, and they are nice! VERY nice indeed!!
And a good, COLD, Frosty morning to everyone else out there! I've been up for barely an hour, and we have a temperature of -6 here in Sioux Falls. With the wind out of the NW at 4 mph, this leaves us with a wind chill of 17 degrees below 0!! I think it is a lot warmer in Louisville, Kentucky where Locomutt, Cherokee Woman and Sarah are.
I've got to go to church this morning, but it's much too cold for me to be walking the six to eight blocks between my house and church, so I think I will be calling another member of my church for a ride this morning.
Ray CANADIANPACIFIC2816
Good Sunday morning, everyone! Yes, it is COLD OUTSIDE this morning!! We are at 25 degrees this morning, and I'm not sure what the wind chill is this morning.
Joe, thanks for getting the coffee on, and making the juice. On the warmer bar, you will find: turkey bacon, sausage, homemade buttermilk biscuits, sausage gravy, grits, cooked rice, oatmeal and buttered toast, and cinnamon toast.
I'm glad everyone enjoyed the pizzas last night. Does anyone have any requests for Sunday Dinner today? If so, please let me know by about 10:00, 10:30, so I can get it going.
Everyone have a great day, and stay WARM!

....A bit colder up here than Lousiville.....Right now we have 14.9 degrees and occasonal snow showers and then sunshine which is what we have currently. Some wind too, so it feels pretty chilly out there....No big snow systems forecast for this area just continued cold this upcoming week.....
Quentin
Well, looks like no one has any particular request for today, so I have decided to have the following for our Sunday Dinner:
1. beef stew w/cornbread
2. beef noodles
3. lasagna w/garlic Texas toast, or you can have garlic bread
4. pork chop abracadbra
And the side dishes are: garden salad, baked potatoes, mashed taters w/beef gravy, creamed corn, green beans, peas and and your choice of homade biscuits, rolls (crescent or dinner).

That sounds great! (I'll take the garlic bread)

I am definitely coming over for that!
Good morning, everyone! Another beautiful day here in sunny San Jose.
Today's focus will be Psalm 69.

You mean that you don't want to hear about temps in the 50s with bright sunshine? Or that I've been outside wearing a short sleeved shirt?
Well, gee, okay. But...
Morning/afternoon everyone.....
Left the flag outside at half-staff, had a death in the area last night. The last Wisconsin Central SD45 possibly made it's final run last night, fittingly enough on the Fond Du Lac to Chicago mainline. Grew up with the bass throbbing of those units just a few miles from the main in Burlington, WI. Gonna miss those units.......
Lasagna sounds good for dinner later this afternoon.
Great, just what I need: More cold. Oh well, truck is plugged in, and it's been tested to start at -5 degrees F, hope it doesen't get too much colder than that.

Okay, looks like I'm gonna have to start on more lasagna for this afternoon/evening; seems that is what's being requested so far. Guess the other items on today's menu will go in the fridge later, and be warmed up for tomorrow. That's o.k., though; don't mind a bit.
Desserts for today: fried apple pies, chocolate cake, cherry cheesecake, and cherry pie.
Our current temp out is around 19 degrees, and I haven't heard what the wind chill is. Don't need to, with an outside temp of 19, and falling!!
Datafever and SactoGuy, you can send that warm weather east, please, and we'll all appreciate it, very much!!

The date on the Amtrak picture was June 26, '04 and I got the shot of the GM steam engine about one year later. My wife's cousin and her family live on Lake Lanier just outside of Gainesville and we go there to visit for a week or so just about every year. Nice country.

We're working on that right now!! When CW first posted this morning, it was right at
25 degrees, it's been dropping All Day, and temp is now at 16, with a Northwest Wind
at about 20-25 mph. (gusting to between 30-35 mph)
Definitely want something Hot for Dinner this evening!!
Being Crazy,keeps you from going "INSANE" !! "The light at the end of the tunnel,has been turned off due to budget cuts" NOT AFRAID A Vet., and PROUD OF IT!!
At the present moment we have a temperature of 10 degrees above 0 here in Sioux Falls, the wind is out of the south at 14 mph, which leaves us with a wind chill factor of 5 degrees below 0. So it has not warmed up here a whole lot in the last several hours. And tomorrow's weather conditions will not be much different.
If lasagna (lass-ag-na - I deliberately pronounce it that way) is on the menu for dinner tonight, then I'll be dropping in within another hour or so, and I'll bet it smells good!
Ray CANADIANPACIFIC2815
At 6:09 p.m., we are at a current temp of 15.6, with a wind chill of minus 2!! I don't like it this cold!!!!!!!! Willy, PLEASE send us some heat!!
Ray, hope you have a couple of faucets dripping, so your pipes don't freeze (along with anyone else, who's having all the much below freezing temps). And yes, lasagna is on the warmer bar for tonight, along with beef stew & cornbread.
The next round of Sunday Dinner is on the warmer bar, so everyone belly on up to the warmer bar, and fill your plates! And I'm going to go sit next to the floor furnace, and put my feet on it!!

Joe, CW says thanks for the Extra Blanket, but wonders if you or Matt has an Extra Sleeping Bag?!?! I'm thinking she REALLY wants Covered up tonight!! Supposed to get
down to about 8 degrees here tonight. Looks like winter is finally here for us!!
We've gotten off easily up until now. Not even had any measurable snowfall; YET!!
Willy, About that "Weather Machine", Does it even have a button marked "HEAT"
on it?!?! Sure could use some of it right now!!
