I've lived here all my life (55 yrs) and we don't see numbers like this very often. Since 1902 only 5 negative temps have been recorded. -3 and -4 twice and -12 once in 1972.

The amount of freeze damage to structures will be interesting, plumbers will be in high demand most likely. Auto repair should be busy as well based on the number of curb contact incidents I've witnessed in the last two days.

Siegster, you'd be proud of me! Yesterday was the first time on the Katoom in almost two years (with the exception of a dual sport ride this summer) and we went to Stoneyford. My club canceled the ride due to the unusual amount of snow (base is at 1700 feet). So they loaded up the rigs and left about 12ish..

Me and my two buddies i went up with, "wintered" up and rode. Started climbing & riding (actually skiing on two wheels) got pretty far as the snow was a very dry snow and we had quite a bit of traction. Never been so sore from only running nine miles. Two hours, till a flat and bent rim took one of my buddies bikes out (probably a rock/boulder under the snow)

We hit 18" of snow at one or two times riding, but man was it fun!

But ya, "baby its cold outside"....hanging lights today....

We got snow in the upper elevations of El Dorado Hills and Cameron Park got a couple inches where my rental is at. The boys and I watched the snow come down as we painted the interior of my rental in Cameron Park. Last time we saw snow in El Dorado Hills was a couple years ago.

-15 the last 5 days, think it will be up to 20 tomorrow,, woo hoo heat wave, Our climate ranges anywhere from -25 to 100+

Friday night at Crystal Mountain it was 4, I was working on the boiler freezin my jiblets off!
Today is nicer, 16 and the suns out. Me and my pops workin on the Grumman.

The PNW isn't used to this kind of weather, it's been real busy at work!

I know what you guys mean, it was like 47 degrees at the shop last night. I guess it's layer season now.

lol, I wish it would get that warm here. It's been single digits and barely in the teens the last couple days here. Today I saw the sun again and the white stuff started disappearing. Should start creeping back up to normal. Working outside in this single digit stuff is brutal when the wind blows.

Freezing here too, low 50's :confused59:

-8.5* here this morning…. (Sun Valley, Id) but it's "dry cold".



Always get a chuckle out of statements like that… 'cause to me - it's still just flat ass cold (or hot)!


The little bit of snow on the roads is very dry - it's actually hard to get the ABS to kick in. Sun is out which helps. At least it's pretty to look at!
