Drago's now traditional Winter 2023-24 murder deathkill slaughter annihilation chaos mayhem insanity weather thread

As yes, Winter, that time of year when the rain and the drizzle becomes slightly less warm.

Have the swallows departed southwards yet, or are they still gathering on the wires?

Oh ye of little faith!

Yup… fall weather today… there’s definitely a nip in the air!

I thought it was rather warm here at 27C when I went out after work (about 16:45). Don't think I'd really want to ride at 42C, though I did a long ride when it was 32-35 last year.

I just got back from an hour long blast out in the country old the motorcycle… even that exhausted me in this heat.

You say that Fritz, but it was chilly in the fields early AM. A very heavy dew too. This is the last fling of summer before the deathkill slaughter weather sets in.

This is Canada… so the weather can turn on a dime. 75 and sunny in the morning, 50 and pissing in the late afternoon and a sheet of ice over everything the next morning. I’ve spent twenty minutes chipping my way into the Ford on a morning like that.

I’ve been snowed on every month but August but I’ve also been able to ride my motorcycle to work full time comfortably for over nine months at a stretch and pretty regularly right through the winter some years.

It can be a strange place… especially with Donald Trump next door for entertainment.

Exactly my friend. One minute you're sunbathing, then next thing you know you roll over to find 6 feet of snow has fallen while you've been reading Jackie Collins.

My sister once worked in a frozen food warehouse. They'd have people suffering all sorts of medical problems from the constant cold to normal temperatures and back as they were walking in and out.

I’ve worked in poorly ventilated industrial environments in the past.
