What gives…it never fails around the office. First colder morning of the year, and over hearing most are casually discussing the nice mid-40s temperature.

Then there’s the guy in a suburb somewhere claiming it creeped into the 30s at his house.

Then over-compensating F-250 driver with a 2 hour commute chimes in that it got to freezing (32) on his ‘property’.

Then there’s always the wise old ‘rain gauge’ man with snow on the ground at his ranch.

What do people gain about being weather one uppers? Just enjoy the cooler air people. You never see Executives involved in these discussions.

Have you never opened an OT weather thread of any kind before? Hurricanes, flooding, snow, ice, record heat or record cold... doesn't matter. This board loves a good weather pissing contest.

Threads like this are why nobody likes you. And you have the gall to ask why you were voted one of the worst posters on this site? Do better.

Did any of them ever steal fishing reels from Academy like you? Y'all should discuss that.

BTW, why is such an independently wealthy man such as yourself clocking a 9-5 like some poor scrub?

Don't you dare comment the "wrong" way in any of them either or one of several armchair meteorologists will come unglued that you interrupted their jerk session.

All the productivity at the office! Celebrate the team building chatter! It strengthens top line and bottom line revenue, and increases productivity.


Right?

The weather phenomenon at my house was unreal this a.m.

I woke up to snow on the ground-------------and that was in my bedroom. I had to trudge through the stuff in my flip-flops since I never got my snow shoes out of storage yet.

It was so cold in the closeted area where my central heating unit is that I had to start a small fire in the return air chamber to warm the machine up so it could get to working.


And this all took place in New Orleans....................

I was in SW Wyoming in the early ‘80s and a strong winter storm came through. The next morning afterwards the relative humidity was even negative.

There’s time to discuss weather at length in your office? What kind of shitty boss are you, letting those workers have water cooler talk instead of being productive? Slacker.

You seem like a very opinionated person. Why is that?

Also the way you talk, I figured you’d be retired on some huge ranch with a 10,000sqft house on it filled with beautiful women attending to your every need.

This is why I love my premium membership, these threads go straight into the "threads started by worst posters as voted on by members" sub board.

Any comment remotely against the grain in weather threads is treated the same way as any comment remotely against Trump on the PT board.
