OK, for some of you guys in colder climes, this might not seem too bad, but around here, this is crazy cold. I just took this pic when I parked at the office. This is the lowest temperature I've ever seen on my e60 as far as I can recall. I know there was a thread about this last year with worse, but geez! The wind chill index has got to be -5?F or more!





PS: I know, it's warm in CA and FL, so please spare us the predictable.

This morning it was 6 degrees Celsius in Taipei when I went to get breakfast. Even tropical Bangkok I heard got something like 5 degrees Celsius too!!!!!

I guess it ain't global warming but global ice age coming upon us instead!
