Our power company is likely switching to demand/surge pricing this spring, where we'll be charged more for peak usage: early mornings in the fall/winter and afternoons in the summer. We have our thermostat programmed pretty well, but I'll be making adjustments to this to spite the power co-op we use.

Man, I would be frigid. My wife had turned it down to 70 one day I was out and when I walked in it felt like walking into a meat freezer.

75/69. Bills are pretty low, no more than $130 and as low as $70

Gas heat? Electric heat is expensive.

There's no way his is electric unless he's got a heat pump, speaking from experience

Snow disaster emergency declared in Erie County. I got around 3 feet here last night and today with another 16 - 24 inches predicted overnight. Been listening to the scanner and it's really f'd up out there with people stranded everywhere. On Rt 5 out by NY all 4 lanes were just reported to be moving west with people looking for somewhere to shelter.

My kid is heading back to Rochester tomorrow, we told him just to stay here but think he is going to take 62 up thru the forest to Warren then 6 to 219 up thru Bradford and catch 86 to 390 up to Rochester. Long drive.

I’d probably rather just take 80 all the way to Dubois then up 219 rather than eff around going through Warren.

Yeah, me too but he likes going up through the forest.

In defense of the young franchise, 62 from oil city to route 6 outside of Warren is probably the prettiest drive in the western part of the state

Prettier than Breezewood?

It is, but he'd be doing it at night

Looking at school delays this morning. WPXI has the most cancerous website out of the 3 Pittsburgh news channels.

First snow day ever for my kid. He is pretty stoked.

Post by **nocera** » Thu Dec 05, 2024 7:57 am

Last night’s thunder snow has left us without power today. Hopefully it’ll be back soon.

Post by **count2infinity** » Thu Dec 05, 2024 8:15 am

About 3-3.5 inches here in Bellefonte. Kid has a 2 hour delay. I wasn't expecting to get that much tbh.

Post by **iamjs** » Thu Dec 05, 2024 11:01 am

currently 24, feels like -6

Old man winter can officially **** off.

My dog wanted nothing to do with this bull **** today.

Wind wreaked havoc on all of christmas decorations.....that was a fun cleanup this morning in the cold.

Post by **NTP66** » Thu Dec 05, 2024 12:57 pm

Ugh, now I'm wondering if I should take some of my stuff down.

Our lights stayed up, but other smaller things got blown over and I even had bricks on some of them (in addition to the stakes). We were getting 40+mph gusts all night and even into today. The snowman on our porch I have surrounded by chairs now and bricks so it doesn't go anywhere. The small tree on our porch keeps blowing over no matter what I do.

I would definitely really tether down/add extra to your big skeleton guy if nothing else.
