Mark D Posted December 24, 2012 Report Posted December 24, 2012 Sorry - not much snow here in the northeast states yet. Quote
1940plymouth Posted December 24, 2012 Report Posted December 24, 2012 I took this photo about an hour ago when Cooper and I went for a ride. As you can tell, no snow here, but that will change starting tonight and by Thursday morning we could have close to a foot of snow on the ground. Merry Christmas to you and yours Uncle-Pekka Quote
55 Fargo Posted December 24, 2012 Report Posted December 24, 2012 Merry Christmas, we are having 1 of the coldest Christmases in a quite while, it is currently about -12f or -24c, with about a -30 windchill, sunny and super dry at these low temps, but I hate it, and for me almost ruins Christmas. We have to travel by car today, and tomorrow, today to a more desolate location, and Christmas Day, to the city, do not like road travel in super cold weather..... Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted December 24, 2012 Report Posted December 24, 2012 what kind of little English varmit you standing beside..Thames, Morris Quote
Chester Brzostowski Posted December 24, 2012 Report Posted December 24, 2012 Merry Christmas to all. Just a light dusting of Christmas snow here in Northern VA. Chet... Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted December 25, 2012 Report Posted December 25, 2012 23 degrees here in SW Missouri with a 30 percent chance of snow for Christmas Day. Brrrrr. Merry Christmas to all. Quote
Uncle-Pekka Posted December 25, 2012 Author Report Posted December 25, 2012 what kind of little English varmit you standing beside..Thames, Morris Actually it is a french Renault R4 fourgonette van - 1st vintage of that model, 1962 (a good year, it was). This car used to belong to my current neighbour's dad. He abandoned it in beginning of 70's, because he got a pink slip due to loose tie rod end. The car stood decades behind a barn and then I heard they were to put it in the crusher. It is all there and all original. Tiny 845cc OHV four and four speed in front of the engine. Drive shafts connect direct to gear box, its FWD. Uploaded with ImageShack.us Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted December 25, 2012 Report Posted December 25, 2012 with all the snow I would have never guessed French made...friend of mine here just picked up his second 2CV...that is just too much snow...I am spoiled...and have hopes of staying that way...have not seen snow that deep since I was in the Alps Quote
Kudzuking Posted December 25, 2012 Report Posted December 25, 2012 Supposed to be 56 degrees and some rain here in Georgia, no snow thank God, the people here freak out with just a dusting, kinda like the drivers in San Diego when it just rains a little bit ! Hope all have a great and safe Christmas and New Year. Quote
55 Fargo Posted December 25, 2012 Report Posted December 25, 2012 Not as Much snow as Finland, snow on the ground but cold cold cold, warmed slightly overnight, about 2 below here now. Could be worse like -30 or colder, my house is super warm, built for this climate, above freezing in garage too..... Quote
Mark D Posted December 25, 2012 Report Posted December 25, 2012 hmm, next time I visit Kokkola, I am going to have to look harder for a souvenir. Quote
Uncle-Pekka Posted December 25, 2012 Author Report Posted December 25, 2012 Mark, just remember to bring a BIG BAG for the souvenir... (Would you been visiting here now, a wool pullover would be necessary as well... We had -27C in Sunday, now it is milder, -14C...) Quote
