Postby Director_Guy on February 2nd, 2007, 1:51 pm
Rise and shine campers, and don't forget your booties, cause it's cold out there today! It's cold out there every day, what is this Miami Beach?!


Today, February Second, Punxsutawney Phil, prognosticators of prognosticators came out of his hole and did not, I repeat DID NOT, see his shadow!! :D :D

yeah but my weather bar says its 0 outside right now and all the banks said -4 without the wind chill factor. I doubt a furry speed bump can really predict the weather

A furious storm once roared `cross the sea, catching ships in its path, helpless to flee. Instead of a certain and watery doom, the winds swept them here to Typhoon Lagoon!

Yeah, but Summery Spring is better than Wintery spring.


Actually went outside today...yikes

Only walked the 100 feet to the gas station, almost died cause it was -8 degrees.

And some of you actually LIKE winter....sheesh. Where's global warming when you need it?

Yeah really. Had to walk 50 feet from Kmart to Petco and by the time I got there my face and hands were numb. Driving to Arlington Heights was crazy with the snow blowing across the road so much you couldn't see more than 20 feet in front of you.

I didn't mind the snow but the colds ridiculous.

You guys think that sucks? Eau Claire has constant winds, and there are advisories out up here that forcast -30 to -40 wind chills the rest of the night.

And the caf is about 150 yards away, get your scarf!

Everybody and their mother got school cancelled today.

But for students here where the temperature was -19 with a windchill of -36 this morning we got to walk for 10 minutes down a giant hill to the point where I couldn't feel my legs anymore.
