The same way he does now.

Alright.... I'm really tired of this crap. After two drives to and from work with frozen iceballs inside the front tires giving me one hell of a vibrator ride, I am done with snow. Add in the 1/8 mile walk from the parking lot to the building and it was, yet again, below zero (in real temps, not your face "Celsius" crap") and I am officially done with this winter.

After the last big snow, when I was busting through drifts in my Miata, I got on the highway and it felt like I was on the worlds longest and most uneven rumble strip. That much snow was packed into my wheels.

Yeah, because +32 is a very sensible place to have the freezing point...

Count me in the "done with it" group. I don't care if this is old normal, new normal, or freakish. It's berkin' cold. The snow is less of a bother, but can't stand the slow traffic and road salt.

The roads up here are never good, but this years crop of pot holes is come in early and are extra nasty. There are places where people are driving on the shoulder because its smoother.....

When someone complains next summer about the heat, I'm bringing this tread back!

No giggity. At 70mph my vision was getting blurred. That's how bad the vibration was.

Why is water the magic item you use for "freezing/boiling"? Why not aluminum? Or Magnesium? Or even ethlyglycol?

Regardless of what temp scale you use, cold is cold. And it's berkeleying cold.

Ignoring the fact that water is the most obvious choice, at least Celcius uses something as opposed to F, which doesn't--"this is really cold, we'll make it 0, and this is really hot, we'll make it 100"
