Well we finally got some very cold weather here in Korea. We woke up to 1 degree f, with a wind chill factor is -20f. I am used to living in Orlando, Florida where it gets down around 32f at night, but warms up to a chillie 70-75f during the day, so this is really hard for me to deal with. For Seoul this is pretty unusual, but man is it cold outside. I got up around 0800 and even though the thermostat was sitting about 75f it felt very cold in the house, and the heating system was struggling to keep up. I had to bundle up to try and keep some of my body warmth. We usually kick the kids out at noon to go hang out with their friends and do someting besides watching TV and playing video games for part of the day, but I just could not be that cruel today. So how cold is it everywhere else?

Well normally we keep the thermostat set at 72 year around, but it is just too dammed cold here right now for us to tollerate the chill that is in the air. Even at 75f the air in the house feels naturally chillie. With forced air blown A/C and heating it is terribly dry also which makes it hard on the respitory system. After spending 6 years in Hawaii, and 15 years in Orlando I just do not care for cold weather anymore. I love visiting snow fallen countries, but I prefer tropical climates for sure. I loved living in Hawaii. Our son is attending The University of Hawaii now, and we told him to enjoy it while he has the opportunity. Cold weather sucks. When the temps drop below 32f I do not leave the house unless I have to.

I haven't been outside to run a truck in about a week as it's been 5-20*F here and snowing all week, I don't even want to know what the wind chill was a couple of them days. Did get to run my 1/12 scale carpet car today though.

Middle of Summer here, lowest max this week is 33c, can get to 46-47c at times.

I find cold easier to deal with than intense heat.

Night time in seoul korea - 01.16.2011, 08:43 AM

Well its night time here in Seoul, Korea and the temp is falling fast. Its near 0 f here now and our heater is runing none stop. I would bet that our housing area suffers some rupture water lines by morning. It is bloody cold. I wish I was in Australia now laying on the beach at Bondai.
