Here are some pix of my back yard summer and winter.

I like the summertime view. It holds the promise of pleasant possibilities.

Hooooooooly Jeebus! They're freezing their Fargon asses off up there in La Crosse, WI!!!

I was feeling sorry for myself this morning in the cold. I'll stop now.

I wonder about the RealFeel® on that screenshot. For instance, our temp is 10 degrees with a wind chill factor (feels like) of minus 3.

How is the RealFeel® warmer than the actual temp? Are there warm winds blowing in?

Curiouser and curiouser.

Those aren't bullet points, they are minus signs.

negative 15 is less than negative 12.

Edit: Never mind. I just looked at the rest of the days. Yeah, that is weird. I don't get it either.

Heehhee.

At first I was like "HEY, I can read" then I was like "Oh. Yeah. You see it too."

I wonder if this is going to be one of those things I notice and wish I hadn't because I'll never ever ever find out how it's possible. This thread will slowly die, and as no one will have an answer, I'll be left with a nagging feeling for the rest of my life. There will be a lot of tangential commentary, and subject-changing, but I shall writhe in the pain of not knowing.

No, I'm not obsessive. Not at ALL.

(Maybe there is a negative wind?)

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Well, in the summer, when it's humid, it feels warmer than when it's dry. Maybe that's true in the winter too (not sure how that's possible below freezing.) But if that's the case, maybe it's really humid and feels a little warmer.

Spexxvet · 12-14-2010, 09:24 AM

Maybe the sun factor? In the shade it'll be 11, but the sun will make it feel like 15?

We can't stand for Shawnee to be in pain...not complete relief, but here's a child's aspirin

Feeling More Freezing Than the Temperature

Let’s break down what AccuWeather’s “RealFeel” Temperature
takes into account on extremely cold days like this.
You may have noticed in our forecast roundup that “RealFeel”
forecasts can be quite a bit different than just the plain old temperature.
On their website, AccuWeather describes the number as
“a unique composite of the effects of temperature, wind, humidity,
sunshine intensity, cloudiness, precipitation and elevation on the human body
— everything that affects how warm or cold a person feels.”

And the high today is Denver is supposed to be over 60°. Strange weather.

Its very warm out here in Cortez, too. Yesterday, I opened up my doors and all my windows because it felt like May instead of December. I actually put on shorts to clean my apartment. This time last year Cortez was under a foot of snow. This year we've only once had a wimpy inch or so that melted immediently. Christmas? Bah Humbug!
