difference in one day

JimmyRopes

What a difference 24 hours makes. Yesterday the temperature was 24C [75F] which is quite cool for this time of year. People were walking around with winter jackets and wool hats. Having lived most of my life in the temperate zone I thought it was quite comfortable. Today, on the other hand, it is a seasonable 35C [95F] which is normal and a reminder that the hot season is just starting. A month from now it will stay above 35 overnight and day time temperatures will be in the 40s. Although it seems hot today we will look back on this as a cool day when the real hot season is upon us. What is the temperature where you live today? I'm on-line therefore I am. JimmyRopes

it's 7 degrees C here in Newcastle (England) [According! to! Yahoo! Weather!] 24 would be considered a pretty hot day for us here! -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit! Buzzwords!

Hmmm ... isn't that an addiction sign when you start going on the Internet to see how the weather is like instead of going outside ? ;P ~RaGE();

*snicker* that;s even sadder than San Diego CA. I was touristing there a few years back. And almost tripped over a few jaws in the evening. It had dropped into the high 40F's (~9C) and I was out in shorts and a tshirt. Wonder if I'd give some of your neighbors heart attacks if I did the same at or below freezing. Daily highs've been below freezing lately and morning windchills subzero F(<-15C). I park the the far parking lot at work, and've yet to wear a coat.

:D Where I live, nobody would put on a winter jacket at a temperature above 10C. A week ago we had -5C during daylight and -10C at night. Today it's about 6C[^], that's quite warm for this time of year (end of winter). _________________________________ Please inform me about my English mistakes, as I'm still trying to learn your language!

Nope, that's the careful way. weather = GetWeather(); if(weather.IsOkay()) { me.GetAppropriateClothes(); me.Leave(house); } else { me.Wait(oneDay); } _________________________________ Please inform me about my English mistakes, as I'm still trying to learn your language!

I have to wonder if Jimmy means the same thing by winter jacket as those of us who live somewhere that has winter do. I'd think anything warm enough to use for an extended period at freezing would result in heatstroke in that sort of weather.

Dan said; "I have to wonder if Jimmy means the same thing by winter jacket as those of us who live somewhere that has winter do." These run the whole range from coats to fiber filled ski jackets. If they bought the coat here it is a “look alike” and isn’t rated for sub zero temperatures. Some folks have relatives that have moved to Norway and Sweden and they do have proper winter apparel. I don’t know how they can wear these coats and jackets in this heat but then again I cannot work during the day when the temperature gets above 40 degrees and they can. I did have to wear a sweat shirt (heavy material) which I bought second hand in a market down at the seaside for the first time last winter. I cannot get shirts my size up country. This was the first year that I needed even that amount of clothing in winter. I guess after 4 years I am starting to become acclimated. I'm on-line therefore I am. JimmyRopes

Words fail me. If longterm forcasting ever gets to be something other than a joke, I'm going to have to take a vacation there when the temps are supposed to pluge into the 40(F)'s just for the reactions that wearing shorts and a tshirt without looking even slightly inconvenieced will trigger. :-P~~

17 degrees is pretty impressive for a single days change :omg: I'm on-line therefore I am. JimmyRopes

What amazes me is that it is 7 degrees in Newcastle since you are approximately on the same latitude as Cape Harrison, Labrador which is probably around -20 on a warm day this time of year. I'm on-line therefore I am. JimmyRopes

The coldest I have seen it here is around 11 degrees [51.8 F] last winter [we only have 3 seasons and winter is over] and that even felt cold to me. Up in the mountains you would get lower temperatures. They even get a dusting of snow [but no real accumulations]in the highlands of Myanmar so possibly in Thailand also. If it ever got cold enough to snow here I think there would probably be hypothermia related fatalities. I'm on-line therefore I am. JimmyRopes

Today - Wendsday - the temp ia about 80F. However - being Texas - its not gonna stay that way. We have an artic cold front due in late Thursday night thats gonna drop us into the 20's and 30's for the weekend - with rain/sleet/snow possible. Thats about a 40 - 50 degree change in 24 hours. Then again on Monday we start a warming trend that is supposed to have us back in the 70's before the middle of next week. Oh well..... Richard Suppose you were an idiot...
