Windchill
-
Current temperature is 24 deg, "feels like 4 degrees".
I just went for a 2 mile lunchtime walk without a hat. Not the smartest thing I've done today.

Folks, there ain't nuthin' between that north wind coming out of Canada and my house, but one barbwire fence in Kansas.
And I swear two of the strands are down...
Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

I blame Trump for this. He's trying to buy Greenland and Canada, and clearly they're retaliating.

I only came here because the internet alerted me to dry wit being given back to native dry wittiens. Carry on!

I say bring her aboard, with her 10 provinces meaning not 1 state but 10 blue states!

I can now see why he is so interested in Greenland as well. He looked at a map and saw how white things got as one kept looking north.

We'll Alberta as a test run, 'mkay?

Think I'll go throw another log on the fire.

Tomorrow we have a low of 18 and a high of 24.
Guess who left his jacket at school? I guess dad’s driving him in.

Not with a windchill of 3. It’s 20+ minutes.

Run, perhaps?

Make him walk.
With his second of at least 3 or 4 jackets dad! Heck, I have a closet full of them and I live in the land of sweltering heat. Our winters have changed, if you can call it Winter here. We haven't seen the thermometer dip under 32 in maybe 4 years? It used to be a regular thing in January, to the point of worry for the citrus growers, who ripe fruit can be ruined on one cold night. It's why many orange orchards have windmills scattered throughout. Moving the air warms it enough to stop freezing the oranges. Then there's the rogue windy rainstorm that can come in March when the blossoms on all the stone fruit are in full bloom. A bad enough storm can ruin a year's profit in peaches, nectarines, and plums. Grapes, the other predominant fruit here seem to be impervious to the weather and we waste them anyways and lay them on the ground to dry out into raisins. Oh wait, yes, a rogue rainstorm can do much damage to fruit on the ground, but that is rare in August.

NS - when I lived in central Florida as a kid on very cold nights the orange growers would set up special propane heaters and place them as a grid between each square of 4 trees. Each tree then had a heater in all four sides.

Re extra coats - he outgrows his too often to have extras, his main coat which he doesn’t like is at his mom’s and he’s been using one of mine which is the one he left at school. I don’t have another adequate to the task (except the one I wear every day) as I recently purged pre-move. I’m a bit of a minimalist like that.
