Delightfully crisp -2oC setting off for work this morning. The heated wipers took care of about an inch of the windscreen at the bottom :rolleyes: while a 5 minute idle cleared most of the rest of the glass of hardened ice.

Got to work 44 miles later and temp showing a vastly unchanged -2oC, so I decided to hit the washer button.

Big mistake.

HUGE mistake  :sweating:

Nah, just a long grindy noise from the blades as they tried to free themselves :lol:

A couple of minutes of wiper heating sorted that out, tho the ensuing water didn't do much cleaning - it just froze in a left-to-right streak kinda way :rolleyes:

Snowy a little bit, windy and -20*C outside, though it was -26*C in the morning and the temperature is said to drop lower tomorrow (-28*C probably).
Despite the severe temperatures my car starts just prefect.

Right now it is -13 C, a light breeze so it is quite cold. Here the time is 20.15

Just been on a 300 km trip. My black car is not black anymore, I hate that salt on the roads.  :disapp:

Well, I both hate and love it. It makes the roads good enough to drive normally, but the car looks like BEEEP with all that salt on the road.  :blubber:

After a couple of days at minus 7, we have warmed up to plus 1 or so, but it's snowing!
Managed 6 holes of golf before it got too much, home and warming up with a big plate of broth now!

I thought you guys, living in the north part of our Earth, had to get used to cold temperatures as I did.
It was -25*C this morning and the temperature has risen up a little bit and it is -18*C outside and sunny  :happydance:

Norway - No way  :lol:

I'm from Denmark - that's just south of Norway. We should have warmer weather than Norway and most of Sweden and Russia.

I'm used to the cold temperatures, but that doesn't mean I like those temperatures.   :mrgreen:  Why do you think we drive all the way to Croatia every Summer.. :question:

The -19 was just this morning, during the day it has been - 6 to -10 and the sun have been shining all day, so it is nice weather.  :cool:

Sorry, my fault, what a shame on me I shouldn't have rushed to post a message  :blubber:. I know your flag and I have been to your country, in Copenhagen city for training.
