It’s a real mystery in my neighborhood how some will have extensive freeze damage and others none, with similar construction. One old house with lousy floor insulation doesn’t get freeze damage I guess because the heat manages to leak down to the pipes enough to keep them thawed. Leaving a faucet dribble definitely helps except maybe areas at the dead end of a pipe (like an outdoor spigot).

If the arctic incursion would drift just a little east it would miss us (sorry, Idaho).
I just got a propane refill also. I imagine it was a little less expensive than the last one (I hope).

we can get down to around 19 or so if its for only one night Since 1 Oct we have hit about 19 a couple times momentarily. The rest of the time it has been bouncing around 10 to -20, and -30 in selected areas. It's -12 right now, but it doesn't feel a degree below -5.

This is going to shut them up if this happens
Sorry homie, but GW is here to stay regardless of all the contradictory evidence that is coming out on a daily basis.
There has been too much $$$$ invested in this hoax as evidenced in all the comercials citing " green this, green that" and the news articles constantly perpetrating this bogus crap. And lets not forget about the constant indoctrination of your kids in their schools.
I am not very optimistic that this GW propaganda can ever be reversed...........

Al will tell us that such extreme cooling is part of this Global Warming pattern. "It's going to get worse before it gets better" . . sort of like "I was for it before I was against it."

One might recall the Great Pasadena Blizzard of 1949, in which parts of the Southland were buried under four inches of snow.
To: JohnJeykis
One scientist on the tube an hour or so ago was stating we were in for a 15 to 40 year cold cycle. That sure must sadden the woe is me global worming crowd.

“I lived in Los Angeles when it snowed in the 40s. Just about shut the city down. Just a dusting but everyone freeked out.”
That was 1949 and in the Silverlake/Los Feliz area we had 8 inches and it didn’t melt off until the day after.

The weather guy out of Denver said we could have snow down to sea level here on Humboldt Bay Friday or Saturday. I just went out to get the mail and pick a couple of mushrooms for dinner and it was clear and cold. I will bet it will be in the looow 30s tonight and the shrooms are the tasty King Bolete...

Remember the big freeze in these parts in 1990? Wow!!!
Everybody's overhead water pipes froze, busted and wrecked their houses. This looks like it could be a repeater!!!

It snowed in La Crescenta on December 6, 1978. Saw it with my own eyes.
