17:19:00 <^bozoJim> yes wind chills can be a pain
17:19:00 <^bozoJim> true
17:19:00 <^bozoJim> at least no snow at those temps
17:21:00 <^bozoJim> it is not bitterly cold as it is with snow
17:22:00 <^bozoJim> mot bad at all

17:35:00 <^bozoJim> and unlike here
17:35:00 <^bozoJim> the heat does not stop trains running
17:35:00 <^bozoJim> for fear a light passenger train would derail
