The F'ing Weather
meghan88:
This weekend in southwestern Ontario, we are having an ice storm. It looks like this outside (hopefully, photo will attach, but it is not showing up in "preview". Suffice it to say that we've been experiencing a few days of freezing rain, sleet, snow, etc.).
Apparently, the gulf stream ocean currents are slowing because of climate change / melting glaciers and ice sheets in Greenland: http://theconversation.com/climate-change-is-slowing-atlantic-currents-that-help-keep-europe-warm-94930
Having seen snow in the south of France a month ago, I know that Europe has been seeing this as well.
We've tried working out to boost endorphins, but it's not working, so it's time to switch to something else. Ideas are welcome. Medication? Binge drinking?
Kris:
I’m in Minnesota. We’ve had easily over a foot of snow since yesterday morning.
I know what you mean. I am in full-on “drink to forget” mode this weekend. Tomorrow I hope to rouse myself and go to the gym. But damn, this weather is hard on the morale.
scantee:
I feel your pain @meghan88. I’m in Minnesota. Like Kris, I’m also drinking to forget what is going on outside. Plus obsessively checking the ten day forecast for comfort that it will eventually warm up the tiniest bit and, more importantly, stop f@$king snowing!
Nangirl17:
Another Ontarian here... it isn't just cold and snowy, it's alternating between sleet and snain, and the roads are treacherous.
Today it was board games to keep our minds off the absolutely terrible weather. We haven't talked so much about moving to Arizona in a long time as we have in the past week...

Can I complain about Houston weather getting down to the high 40's? Go home Spring. You're drunk...
