End of winter nights?

Postby ATP » Thu Jan 19, 2012 10:37 am

Usually when it is winter, I tend to sleep longer, but recently I ended sleeping 6 hours instead of 7, and 6 again last night. I then knew that the very cold winter nights are mostly over. I take some small delight & comfort in this. :D

Strange. I haven't notice those cold winter nights at all and they are over already ? O.o

This winter has been very mild so far. Forecast is to get down to freezing or below after the weekend. We'll see.

Yes, average temperatures of 7-8 degrees this January is ridiculously mild compared to normal January when it's closer to 1-2 degrees. And the Chinese call lunar new year "Spring Festival" so I imagine next Monday we'll all be walking around in tee shirts!

Global warming (if you believe it that is...). Wasn't there something about the sun being at it's hottest in 2012? We are going to fry...

Somehow I thought you'd bring this thread around to the thermal underwear mess.

It will get colder again. It's only January. But January so far has been rather mild compared to last year.

It won't be there end of the world, Gay. I reckon there will be some changes, but not the end. At least... I hope not... I haven't felt the need to wear thermals yet! Just a pair of tights under my jeans has been sufficient!

^ exactly my thought! If your feet are cold, the rest of your body will remain cold! You have to warm your feet the most! (I am currently wearing 3 pairs of socks).

This is pretty normal for late Jan / early Feb. We've been lucky this year it's been mild overall. Nobody remember the heavy snowfall of a few years ago? But yes, cannot wait for summer!

I don't know if I would have this on my front yard, but it most certainly captures the sentiment :D :D
