Cold Enough For You???  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 90/100. sconibear (2988)   ranked 615 out of 27,455 in mylot.com 4 years ago

well, as many of you may or may not know,
i live in Las Vegas, Nevada.

it's not unusual to have many, many days of 100 degrees or more during the summer.

heck just last week we were in the 60's.

well right now it's SNOWING right outside my window, and no i don't live in the mountains, i live a couple of miles from The Strip.
we get snow down here in the valley every couple of years.

boy, it's really coming down......kinda reminds me of Minnesota where i spent 13 years.......of course this won't stick......for very long anyways.
but i'm sure it will wreak havoc with the roadways.

drivers around here act like it's Armageddon when it drizzles.doh


so how's the weather in your neck of the woods???




*ooooh boy.....i can't wait to here from all the people "down under" telling me how hot it is.....i'll talk to you guys in the summer*

just kidding.....love all you Aussies...........and your koalas.lol

I live in Canada, which means it can be shorts weather one day and parka weather the next. As for Las Vegas, I am one of the stupid people who assumed LV was always warm. I first went on vacation there in November a few years back and only brought summer clothes. It was FREEZING, about 45F (to use American thermostat speak). I had to buy a coat, and barely ventured outside. When I went to Vegas one August, I assumed it would be HOT, but I didn't expect the impact of hot and DRY. I love hot weather but we couldn't walk a block without our entire body drying out like parchment. Still, beats the crap out of snow and ice and sleet and dark, dark, hideous weather from about November to May. ;)


myLot reputation of 90/100. sconibear (2988)   ranked 615 out of 27,455 in mylot.com  4 years ago

yeah, it took a while for me to get used to when i first moved here.
i would go somewhere in shorts during the day, and be regretting it when the sun went down.
as for the summer months................that's why God gave us air conditioning and swimming pools.w00t

Sconi it is cold here,like it always is. No i did not know you lived in Las Vegas.
Now i do so please tell us more about Las Vegas.Is it really like the TV/mags make out ?..Also why have you started a weather discussion in mylot. You should have put it in people as it talks about people & their weather...
In future if you need help please dont hesitate to ask..PRIVATELY lol


myLot reputation of 90/100. sconibear (2988)   ranked 615 out of 27,455 in mylot.com  4 years ago

well, for me Las Vegas IS NOT like the TV or the mags, cuz i'm always inside WATCHING TV and reading mags.

when you live here you rarely do the typical Las Vegas things unless someone comes in from out of town.

*note to sconi, remember girlfriend's dad and brother coming from Germany in April......make list of "typical Las Vegas things" to do*

this discussion is not about "PEOPLE".....it's about WEATHER and what kind of weather my fellow MYLOTters are experiencing.glare

when you say "PRIVATELY", do you mean like back room PRIVATELY???
cuz i'm all there!!!wub HUBBA HUBBA.

Today was strange. It's in the high 60s right now, which is very warm for winter here. Yesterday was so cold, I was stuffing my sweatpants under my jeans. I can't wait till spring....shouldn't you be hibernating or something? rasp

Nah not where I am in Victoria! It is cold and has been raining cats & dogs for days now and the weather forecast for the rest of the week is showing more rain on the way not that I am complaining about this as we are in a really bad drought and so we need it really bad!

But if you live in Queensland then that would be a different story altogether as it is always hot up there! I just came back from spending 2 weeks holiday's up there last week and it was very hot and we were in the pool everyday and even though when we were there they have a few huge Thunder (love thunder storms and have missed getting them in Victoria) and it rain very hard and for hours too but the temp didn't drop and it was still very hot and sticky but if that was Victoria where I live when we get a huge storm the temp drops really quickly and you are like oh boy what a relief from the heat! But not in Queensland it stays hot.

But we are heading into our summer season over here now so yes t should stay to heating up very soon and getting very hot and then yeah the A/con will be running happy

And yeah I too thought that Las Vegas was always hot being out in the dessert and all lol never thought that it would snow there w00t


myLot reputation of 90/100. sconibear (2988)   ranked 615 out of 27,455 in mylot.com  4 years ago

what is this "RAIN" stuff you speak of???blink
we're always in a drought..........who would of thunk to build a city in the middle of the desert???
yeah, we get snow down here every so often, but it doesn't hang around.

if you see any of them koala bears, tell them cousin sconi said "hey". thumbup

have a happy summer msmell.......BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!cry

myLot reputation of 90/100. sconibear (2988)   ranked 615 out of 27,455 in mylot.com  4 years ago

Ha Ha, i'm looking out the window right now and it's coming down pretty good.
i live on the west side of the valley, pretty far from McCarran but i guess this time it's hitting the whole valley.
anyway, have a safe trip home.rolleyes


myLot reputation of 98/100. rjbass (1014)   ranked 1,054 out of 27,455 in mylot.com  4 years ago

Hey sconi! Wow! It's snowing in Las Vegas! I live in NY and
it's 6o degrees here today and we haven't had any snow yet!
It had gotten really cold for awhile like it's supposed to
be this time of year and still we didn't have any snow!
Now it's supposed to drop to 40 and they say it's supposed
to snow a little! I have no idea what's hapening here! And
you are getting snow! This global warming thing is really
throwing the weather off completely! Next think my Mom will
tell me she's getting snow in Florida!


myLot reputation of 90/100. sconibear (2988)   ranked 615 out of 27,455 in mylot.com  4 years ago

yeah, looks like most of the country is going to get hit by this cold front that hit us.
we get snow here every couple of years but it doesn't hang around very long.
long enough for people to make a snowman or 2, make the evening news, and then it's gone by the next day.
i guess as long as we're having fun.w00t

by the way.....love the hat, glad you figured it out.wink

Everyone loves the "new Christmas look"! Thank you so much!
I'm telling everyone that you are the one who gave it to me!
They know that I sure didn't do!

Here it has been up and down in the temps.
When the temps get to around 40 degress.
That is just too cold for me. The warmer the better.
Can't wait for summer again. I would like to enjoy
some of the snow a bit.


myLot reputation of 90/100. sconibear (2988)   ranked 615 out of 27,455 in mylot.com  4 years ago

yeah, i also prefer summer to winter.
the nice thing about Vegas is if you want snow you can drive about a half hour to Mount Charleston and play in the snow.rolleyes

Hello sconibear

I did not realize that you lived in Las Vegas. Hmm.

I live in the Southeastern U.S.A. and it's been quite warm lately. We've been running the Air Conditioning for the last four or so days. We had a couple of cold mornings where I almost considered wearing a jacket.


myLot reputation of 90/100. sconibear (2988)   ranked 615 out of 27,455 in mylot.com  4 years ago

yeah, the last couple of weeks were nice......it's the best time of the year, electric bill wise.......no AC and no heater.
we're getting hit by a cold front from our maple leaf loving friends up north.
it's supposed to blanket most of the country.

we'll feel like we're sitting on the sun again soon enough.shocked
