Insulation sucks. The House is build of Burnt Adobe, which provides an R value of maybe 4. Add to that the fact our primary Heat (and all Cooling) is from Heatpumps. A great invention and generally an economical provider of indoor comfort, but not so good at providing a temp delta of 40 degrees F. So we bundle up and leave the outdoor faucets slowly dripping so they don't freeze. Crazy Ed |

Intense inversion, temps bouncing a few degrees either side of freezing each day and night, but a mile straight up it's in the mid to upper 60s. Think I'm gonna need a taller ladder... |

Snow crisis panic [1/1]

writes "Mad Cow" wrote in message ... There's a fallen tree across the cycleway - and people have had to actually walk round it!!! Did it actually fall over from that dusting of snow? 8-) IMO, no. I think it fell over because the Council felled the tree next to it, combined with the weight of wet slushy ivy growing on it. The snow wasn't a dusting, it was a few inches of wet snow that melted as fast as it fell - and then turned to rain. Thirty miles further north where the ground was hard frozen they had a whole day's snow and sunshine today. sigh jim in the Great White North (Calgary if you forgot) with lots of snow but currently (2:30 AM) +3C going to +5 Tues/Wed and +7 Thurs with the usual west winds (a chinook) being the cause of it all. -9 for Saturday...So we'll see what's left. 4 cm new snow this afternoon. I've seen what a foehn can do to snow in the Alps. Not pretty! -- Sue ] |
