Temps
 
Low teens last night.......Clear, sunny highs of low 30's..Don't do cold anymore, sucks especially with no heated shop. I'm pouting bigtime :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

means it's coming my way soon. I haven't used heat or AC in probably 3 months. Power bill has only been $55 to $65 for 3 months. I thought about having it cut off! :idea:

Last week in Florida it was low to mid 70's. This week in Ohio it is mid 30's to 40 degrees. I am ready to head somewhere south. I don't mind a very minimal cold period or light snow minimal but I am tired of this Ohio winter. Time for a place like Tennessee or the Carolinas.

i hate to tell you shawnp but when i lived in tn. we would get 6 inches of snow alot.that was in n.w.tn. but it snows all over there.just like ohio, just not as deep.unless you live in the mountians then ohio doesnt seem so bad,and heat in the summer. god its awful. i hate winter but i really hate the dead of summer. the humity is so high you can see it.we went to mexico . to cancun. in 99. in oct. we climbed some pyrimads and it was 100 outside. but it wasnt bad at all. no humity.when we got back to alabama. it was 80s and i hated it. go fiqure.lol

shawnp 12-07-2011 04:37 AM

Here it has already started. Temps into the 20's and just north already had inches of snow. When the snow machine starts here in NE Ohio it don't turn off until March or April. The temps get teens and lower before wind chills. The summer time is 80-90 degrees June-August and the humidity come July and August gets up there.

I don't mind a little snow or occasional temps being cold come January or February but it seems like the cold comes sooner and last longer any more here. I am thinking SE TN or in the Carolinas. The winters there seem shorter and much more milder. I don't mind the summer heat.

ZIP: I don't have a big house, but my gas bill (heat is like 52.00/average) which I have to pay in the Summer too... electric is like always over 100.00.. why is it so much less there? I don't get that... I am getting robbed. Must be my kids always leaving the lights on. I agree, winter sucks. :roll:

TheYellaBrick 12-07-2011 03:40 PM

Scooterz 12-07-2011 04:58 PM

Rigs, my house is small also, 1440 sq ft, my shop is bigger 34X66 ft., gas is like $20.00 in the summer, goes to $130.00 in the coldest mo's. The light bill goes to $140.00 in the 100 degree months with the AC running full time. I have a great electric company (energy) and natural gas. On the other hand my house in Ms. is 1842 sq ft and the electric bill is twice as much (TVA electric) and the gas is propane is about $600.00 in the winter. Go figure, i owned a 3600 sq ft house in ms and the electric bill was cheaper than the 1842 sq ft house, the big house was on Energy elec.
The elec company charge what they want too and if you live in their district you have to pay (no choice's)

Life suck when you are on SS, i used to always have money in my pocket, now i barely it from month to month and racing has slowed down to a crawl.

outlaw256 12-08-2011 02:23 AM

well its cold right now its 5 am and its 26 outside.i was gonna go out to the shop this morning but i cant afford the damn heat. propane is 3.39 a gallon here and with a 100 gal .min. thats gonna eat into my parts bill.my house is kinda big and we have a heat pump. but we have 4 electric meters on my property one for the hotrod shop, one for the bikeshop and pool, one for my house and one for a 2 story cottage and a smalll building that i converted into a living space for my retarted bro.inlaw.so my electric bill, just electric.is about 1000. a month.but we also have 2 lights at both ends of the driveway and lites down the side of the sidewalk to the house.and lites around the pond so we use alot of juice.but if we didnt have lites out here you couldnt see anything at nite.
