So, You Think it's Cold Outside?

in
Most of my friends will tell you that I despise cold weather. Even though I now live somewhere that is warm for 95% of the year, I still don't like the onset of cold weather.

I was reading in my feed reader about the underglacier mountains and lake, and I was amazed that there are people who actually are willing to work in such conditions!

So, to continue, I learned about true cold... I'm thinking about the katabactic winds that come off the Antarctic glaciers and ice sheets.

Take a look at how it occurs:

And. if that's not impressive enough, take a look at this video, taken during the katabactic winds in Antartica... brrr!! Now, THAT'S wind!!!

I'll quit complaining about the cold, LOL!!
