[Ramsey]

I can't even fathom that, that like 75 degrees colder than it is here. You people are nuts.

[codyj86]

[ChiXJeff]

Yup.... bundle up in your woolies tonight. It's already -4 degrees F south of the Twin Cities.

[nick86]

[kunaji]

It was freezing here today too. It was 55 degrees today and I almost put on a jacket.

[codyj86]

55 degrees is almost shorts weather. i wish it were that nice out.

Let's go play football!! Do the Packers have heated seats at Lambeau field?:flame:

[IllianaXJ]

[nick86]

Let's go play football!! Do the Packers have heated seats at Lambeau field?:flame:

[ChiXJeff]

From what a couple of friends of mine tell me (went to a game at Lambeau last fall,) not only no, but HELL no. The seats are extruded or formed aluminum and work pretty well as heat sinks.

That's alright, all of the REAL football teams, like the Bears and the Cowboys, will be at home, nice and warm. Only a retard would play in such terrible weather.
The Bears already beat the fudge Packers twice, what more do you want?

I put a block heater in my jeep before I left work today. It -4 now with a windchill of -26 and they say the high tomorrow is going be -5. There also saying tonight and tomorrow that wind chill may reach -35. Hope my jeep starst morning.

[codyj86]

[97XJ Jeeper]

4* feels like -13*, weather channel said it's gonna be cold for a while. Sucks because I just ordered bunch of stuff for the Heep and I know when it gets here I gonna want to install it right away. Anybody close with a heated garage, I'll buy the beer.
:laugh3: :cheers:

threads like this remind me why I don't miss minndak

[BOB]

My MJ purrs like a kitten in warm weather, but when it is under 20 outside, fegetaboutit. it will not start without starting fluid.

My XJ will start on the first try every time as cold as hell outside.

My XJ will start down to about -10, it doesn't really get colder than that here so I don't know if it'll start any colder.

[BOB]

I'll be in Tampa Tuesday. Looking forward to it.
I hope there is some sunshine.

Green Bay in with its .02, it is currently 0* overnite low of -6*, tomorrow high of 6* then the wind picks up and for game time on Sunday (5:30pm) kickoff at 2* and windchills to -35*, yes extruded aluminium benches (but you are packed in pretty tight), unless you sit in the new part, rows above 60, then its plastic i think, also your feet on the cold concrete will do more than you think. Anyone besides me crazy enough to go? there was actually a story on the news tonite about a couple selling their tix because of the cold.

[5.2poweredxj]

Woke up today and turned to the weather channel and it -17 with out the wind.

[codyj86]

yep. -18*. w/o wind. -35* with. brrr.

[string cheese]

there was actually a story on the news tonite about a couple selling their tix because of the cold.

Trust me its not the cold that has them selling their seats. With the ticket prices ranging from $500 to over $1000 its the cash.

[xjwisconsin]

Yes that concrete will freeze your ass, but put enough booze in ya... and you know. As for the temp check in, I am sitting at -2 with a -20 or so windchill. Oh and Ghostbusters is on so who knows if I will drag my ass out to the garage (unheated) to test the TPS today. LOL
And for who ever blessed their Optima... I agree. The red top in mine is about the best thing I have done for the old girl.

Real Jeeps don't have an engine big enough to require a block heater and will start in any kind of weather ;)

As for the Football. <shrug>
No body ever said that GB fans had any sense. :D

[97XJ2]

Just a little sluggish this morning still a crank or two but turned a lil slower than normal. -8 according to the jeep thermometer on my way home at 3 am last nite. and your rite gb fans well, i'm a saner one, but a lot of ppl will be good and boozed up for the game since its cold and its at 5:30 pm, gives them all day for the bars. And that story about selling tix, it was actually on the news that they were selling because it was cold, but im sure the money are getting from them helps them get over missing the game. stocked up on hand warmers for the game tomorrow, hope im not dissapointed.

[lesslimited]

I went from my heated garage to a job in Chicago, where I parked in heated garage.

Then I stopped at Menards on the way home, and realized that it is cold out there :eek:

[jforse]

-13 right now in Duluth, -35 with the windchill

[Gil BullyKatz]

-7 in kenosha right now...

Just got home from work...

The heat not wanting to work in the wife's car...

it kept me from freezing but my fingers were getting pretty cold.

[ChiXJeff]

Just drove to work in the Twin Cities. -11 outside right now.

[XJ&CHZ4ME]

just got in from choring this morning....-8 in the low spots and -2 else where, and the wind chill...FAWKIN' COLD!!! I have been chopping ice since 4 this morning and after 7 water tanks, I worked up a sweat, but the sweat beads were freezing as they were rolling down my face...maybe I should have slept in and let the wife chore this morning :D

[ChiXJeff]

Chore, and chore alike? :D

[XJ&CHZ4ME]

HAHA, when I got back in this morning, I woke up the wifey with my freezing cold hands...needless to say, I wont be getting any "warmth" from her today!!

[ChiXJeff]

Man, you better be careful, starting that kind of war......

[85xjwoody]

Got back from my ice fishing tournament last night. Had a blast!! Had a fire Friday night and Saturday afternoon. Temps were below zero the entire time!! Wasn't too bad to stand there by the fire until we ran out of pallets.:D My friend Mike won the tournament for the third time in five years. :yelclap: Can't wait till next year.

[cjben]

[Rev Den]

wind chill don't mean chit.

Just stay outta the wind....


waiting for the inevetable...."My junk won't start cause the wind chill is....blah blah blah."

Rev

[codyj86]

thank you genious. the wind chill effects us. i could care less about my jeep starting. i know it will. and as for staying out of the wind, kinda tough when you've gotta go out the the parking lot of a dealership to try to start a 1 ton deisel when the fuel is gelled over becuase it's been sitting outside unplugged for the last 4 days.. then i've gotta go get another truck to try and pull the other one in. thats what sucks.

[IllianaXJ]

waiting for the inevetable...."My junk won't start cause the wind chill is....blah blah blah."

Rev

I started up the Expy this afternoon after it sat for the last week or so. Turned over slow, but no problem. The XJ and the Durango have been fine, minus the sticky IAC on the D making it rev to 3k for a couple seconds when you start it.

[Rev Den]

thank you genious.

:D :D :D
