How cold and how much snow are we to expect over the next week?

 

I don't really care, as I am heading north to escape it.

 

I just looked at tonight's forecast for Flagstaff, AZ and saw this >

 

Make sure you pack your long underwear.

 

And use magnum primers in your reloads to ensure ignition..

WOW thats pretty cold for AZ isnt it? I know my cousin lives just outside of Phoenix and says when it is at its coldest he wears a long sleeve t-shirt and shorts.

That's damn cold for this time of year. He will need more than long sleeves for the 8 degree temperature.

Flagstaff is North AZ and gets pretty cold. it is just below Colorado. The Southern Deserts get cold at night. When the sun goes down so does the temp. The oddest thing is walking in the desert taht is 110+ degrees, looking on top of a Mtn and seeing it covered in snow.

That does seem strange! I know he is pretty south west in the state but I didnt realize there was that much of an elevation difference. Then again, I do remember landing down in a bowl like shape which turned out to be Phoenix.

At least enough to throw some salt down on the roads I hope....good for business

I was stationed at Ft Huachuca for a couple months, which happened to be the winter months. Huachuca is on the southeastern tip, basically on the foothill of the mountains that border AZ and Mexico. I remember it snowing a couple times in February, and it being damn cold for the morning runs.

Anastasia went to flagstaff/ grand canyon south rim for a research project in June and it was very cold. This year is the coldest on record there in a long long time. She had to bundle up in 2 sweatshirts in the cold weather rated sleeping bag while camping there.

It's about 40 here no sign of snow.

 

Course, I'm in Saarbrucken Germany

 

Coming back to a mess tomorrow then? Haven't been watching the weather.

This year is the coldest on record there in a long long time.

 

But global warming is a fact! :roll: :roll:

Flagstaff is like 6000 ft elevation, hence the cold winters & snow. Great observatory there, though (if you're into that kind of thing)

No, it is now called Climate Change, global warming is like early 2009. That was Bush's fault. Now the Enlightened Ones are worried about climate change, because it always will so they can not be wrong anymore.
