It is minus 24 degrees now and I am just about to leave for work which means, I may be back in a few minutes since I am unsure if my car will start. I don't have an engine warmer which means once it gets to this temperature, it gets a bit touch and go, or 'not-go' as the case may be. So far, it has always started.
I should really have an engine warmer but I didn't take one when I bought the car new...8 years ago. Luckily it is a Honda and most of the time, they are pretty well bulletproof. These really cold days are pretty rare though but it was meant to get down to minus 30 a few hours ago and if it did that, I predict a non-starter.
Me session this morning will include meeting with @markos86 so perhaps he will be forgiving if I can't make it. Although, last week I had to cancel also because of a high fever. Let's see...

Had a bit of rain yesterday in Dubai but the weather is still good @ 24 degrees - goes beyond the 40 mark during the summer with our fair share of humidity. Amazing how over the years of moving here from Cairo my internal thermostat has regulated for both the heat and humidity. Have to admit I have grown to like the heat. Below a photo I took over the weekend

well i live in alberta canada and cold as charity here in winter all vehicles comes with heat blocks so just plug them in over night takes about 4 hours to warm up oil so your vehicle can start. especially bad if you own a diesel vehicle. we just leave are cars and trucks running when its below -30 when out and about. just bring spare set of keys with you so can lock the doors.

Huh, good luck with that man. Here was about -12 degrees this morning, I just said fuck it and decided to stay home all day long. No thank you; I don't need that snow and cold wind.

wow and we are already touching 35 degrees here. I so hate summers but then can't do much about it. Summers here in New Delhi are almost 7-8 months and this has become a part of my regular cursing,

Wow, where are you? Here we complain when it is in the 40s (like now) and we can't leave out windows open over night. A lot of things are relative, but "cold" is definitely a big one. Hope the car starts up on the first try and stays on.
