It was below -10 F here yesterday morning for a while. My car battery narrowly avoided a crisis. I’m glad to see Mt. Washington setting the pace!

Kate, see, they knew this was going to happen and sent that balloon to monitor the effects of their wicked temperature manipulations!

It was so cold that on Friday, whenever I walked into our break room with its two walls of windows, and back out, the pressure difference was so great that my fitness watch thought I had gone upstairs.

It could not keep that room warm.

Way down here, under the Chinese balloon in central NC, it’s still only 34º.

” ‘You can run but you can’t hide’ may refer to: “He can run, but he can’t hide”, a statement attributed to American boxer Joe Louis”

The Grand Solar Minimum is coming to a plant near you.

Since the “weather” is just what is experienced today, and “climate” is a reflection of what is in your closet, be prepared. As in the Pelosi house break in…”…then things got weird.”.

Mount Washington just broke the country’s record for the lowest wind chill temperature: “New Hampshire’s Mount Washington felt more like Mars than planet Earth on Friday as wind chills dipped below an unfathomable minus 110 degrees, a new record for the coldest wind chill ever recorded in the US. Known for having some of the world’s worst weather, Mount Washington saw air temperatures plummet to minus 46 degrees with wind speeds averaging over 100 miles per hour with gusts over 125 miles per hour. . . The wind gusts caused dangerous conditions for the weather observers even while they were hunkered down inside. . . .”

Meanwhile, the observatory at the top of Mount Washington is run by one tough kitty: “Nimbus the cat, who lives in the observatory with staffers, was reportedly cozied up and unbothered by the deadly storm, despite being a bit grumpy from taking his flea medication. ‘He is actually sleeping through most of this event,’ Tarasiewciz said.”

Jahaziel Maqqebet–

Modern is still a good place for pizza, and still located on State Street. I’ve always enjoyed eating there. Here’s the current menu, prices, and hours:
