Cold snap to continue into the week

Posted by Geeky Swedes on December 5th, 2009

Heavy frost, thick ice on the windshield and slippery driving conditions greeted Ballard residents this morning after a chilly night. And keep those ice scrapers handy: the cold weather will continue for a few days.

The forecast calls for high temperatures in the 30s for most of the week, with lows in the 20s. And there’s even a chance for some light snow flurries tonight and into Sunday morning. Stay warm!

    Since nobody else is saying it yet…

    You call this cold? When I was a kid it would get to minus 100 without your silly wind chill. Kids today don't know how good they got it!

    Ironically, the coldest weather I ever experienced was in Atlanta, GA. Wind chill of -15 degrees. As long as our house has heat and I have ten layers of clothes to put on when I go outside I kind of like cold weather.
