Yeah freezing here as well Its like 48 outside. LOL I'm stayin in

 

It's been down to -10 in Eugene Oregon. Grandkids over, they had to ride in the snow. The 800 and XP cranked slower but started. Fun in snow but didn't last long. Engine water temp was 22 degrees when they started, maybe lower, no ideal who low the temp gauge actual reads. Just to cold to be outside much. Warmer in Fairbanks then here for several days. The snow is beautiful. First time in my life I have seen icicles on the on the tips of the Fir trees. Now understand why trees are decorated for Christmas with icicles.

 

Was -24 this morning when I got up for work at 7am.

 

-17 here yesterday morning. Damn cold to say the least.

 

I'd sure like it to warm up to -17 F...

 

11 degrees when I left the house this morning and a beautiful 55 degrees and sunny right now. Been a really bad cold snap for this time of year in the Texas panhandle. We usually dont see stuff like this till January.

 

same here north of midland, tx. when it hit us it was 11`-12*. crazy for us.

we still have ice on the rig.

 

I live in northern Ontario Canada. ANYBODY want to trade temp. Was -38 with the wind here this morning -28 I think without the wind.

 

I was going to make a similar comment from Newfoundland, but our temps aren't as cold as yours, lol.

 

It was 45-55 when I went to work this morning. I wished it was warmer

 

Cold here as well (Upstate NY)..Global warming my as$#&!! : )

 

Nippy 73* here ... It will be a little less cold tomorrow high of 77*
Got to love Palm Springs this time of year...

 

Center of US really taking a beating this year. Should be in the upper 40's to low 50's here in AR. Instead, this is what we have. And the forecast for the 21st and 22nd show a significant storm to develop!

 

Its been subzero here for a couple weeks. Actually happy its supposed to hit +10 today. Lol

Its my first winter with my razor. Is there anything to know and watch out for in cold temp operation? froze belt, hard tranny, etc??

 

Yes, all of the above. When we ride in very cold temps, I always allow it to warm up for a good 10 minutes. Then the first 10 minutes of riding is easy. Axles, or any steel for that matter doesn't like frigid temps, unless it was specifically formulated for them. Avoid a lot of donuts in the snow. Trust me!

 

It finally made it to the 40's Thursday afternoon here in Dallas. Been that way since then hasn't got warmer. Lol
That's ok I'm ready for the 60's next week

 

do all the snowbirds get a refund????? LOL

 

Careful not freeze your BALLS off lol...
That's painfully cold... Lol

 

A Winter Poem
SHIT it's COLD
the end.

 

hahaha :rofl3::rofl3::rofl3:

 

its been around -40 with windchill for over a week here in manitobs
brrrrrrrrrrrrr
And the rzr isn't starting lol
Neither are most Honda's... they are the number 1 boosted car lol

 

Nahh, windchill don't count. That only affects bare skin. Machinery only cares about thermometer temp.

 

windchill is a big thing on equipment. wind blows onto the medal and freezes it.
still -25 - -30 without wind.. damn cold.
brrrrrrrrrrr

 

Agreed on the wind chill supposedly not affecting non living things, but it affects the sorry bastard that has to go out and try to get an ornery Detroit Diesel. LOL

 

I think the global warming fanatics might need to rethink their predictions. It's not panning out quite like they've hoped.

 

They'll just give the same excuse as the weatherman: "It's just a prediction, not a guarantee!" :rofl3:

 

Coldest spot in North America for 2 days last week -24F for a daytime high and -54F with the windchill. It was even to cold for those of us that live in Southern Alberta and are used to winter. I work outside for about 4 hours everyday in that.

 

we just finished a week of 12 hour shifts in this cold. wind is the killer.

 

my block heater just went out in my 24 valve. i have brand new batteries and they were about froze up or something. barley turned over and i hate that.

i rigged up a heat lamp bulb under the hood to keep her above freezing till i get home!

gatta love it

 

I know that wind chill is only supposed to effect living things, but every plumber out there will tell you that it is important to close off under house vents in windy conditions. Those that don't will have frozen pipes in the morning. And we always covered machinery that was left outdoors, or else it simply would not start. Identical machinery that was behind the shed doors would fire up in the same conditions, just with no wind blowing on it. IDK, but I got tired of it and moved farther south about 34 years ago!
