will I live?

[MannyIsGod]

I fly into Detroit Friday night

Friday Night: A chance of flurries. Mostly cloudy, with a low around -3.


What the fuck?

[desflood]

What the fuck?
:lmao

[Slomo]

I say take a page from timvp's survival book: Flip-flops are best suited for snow, provided you wear them without socks.

Dude, you might as well nut up and get her a ring. Those plane tickets must be costing you a fortune!

Do married people fly free?

[Blake]

I'd be more worried about the crazies that live in Detroit more than a little frost on the window.

[JoePublic]

It is just weather and you of all people should understand that. Man up and grow a pair.

[GeorgeCostanza]

Be prepared for some serious, or in your case not so serious, shrinkage.

[ATRAIN]

Manny your fucked, even with your monkey coat you will freeze.

[NFO]

-3 isn't even with the wind chill dude.

5 bones says that you freeze your nuts off, literally. Just bring some t-shirts and some shorts and you will fit right in.

[JoeChalupa]

I don't miss that kind of weather at all but it is nothing when you live up there all the time.

[DarkReign]

I don't miss that kind of weather at all but it is nothing when you live up there all the time.

This.

After awhile being here, you'll start having small talk with peeps you know about how "its a nice day out there" because its above 20 with no wind.

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

I don't miss that kind of weather at all but it is nothing when you live up there all the time.

I had a manufacturing client in Wyoming that I'd go see every winter, and the weather would usually be in the single digits or low teens whenever I'd visit them. Whenever we'd go outside I'd be bundled up like an eskimo, and these guys would be wearing windbreakers...no gloves...no hats, and they'd be fine. Like clockwork they'd respond to my shivering frozen corpse with something like "yeah, seems cold, but you shoulda been here last week...THAT was cold."

I hate the cold.

[Richard Cranium]

I'm sure you'll be okay once you get settled in.

Who needs a refrigerator in MI? Drafty windows and snow in a cooler makes it all through the winter. That's green, baby!

I almost want to drive up there just to see the look on your face. Almost.

It's an odd thing when your nose hair freezes and your back spasms because of the cold.

Good luck with it.

[johnsmith]

I'd cancel your trip.

[to21]

Normally I'd call a dude a pussy if he says he's cold.

-3? Fuck that I'd stay home.

[MannyIsGod]

The fucked up thing is its going to seem warm when I'm in DC a few days later and its only in the 30s.

[DarkReign]

If I heard right (i dont pay attention to the weather report....at all), its supposed to get very cold here in Michigan next week.

As in, daily freezing. Dont know though.

[Thunder Dan]

Friday here is a HIGH of 7 degrees......7 fucking degrees.

[duncan228]

I grew up in New England and dealt with the winters pretty well. I spent years on the West Coast and then found myself back East for 2 years. It was horrible. When you're not used to that kind of cold it's much harder to deal with.

Hope you have a good time in spite of the cold Manny.

I call bullshit on that one I lived there half of my life and never ever had that convesation. Besides theres no such thing as a nice day in Detroit. Welcome to the suck Manny.

[IronMexican]

It was 80 degrees in SoCal today.

I was fucking dying of heat also.

Thankfully it's Ann Arbor and not Detroit. I drove into downtown Detroit a few months ago with my dad (who said, "So you've got your semi-automatic and extra ammo in the trunk, right?"), and a lot of it looked pretty depressing.

Astoria Bakery was worth it, though!

Dont forget to microwave your panties before wearing them out mmkay.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

You're lucky you're not coming in Thursday night: Low: -5 °F RealFeel®: -26 °F. It'll actually be warming up by Friday night: RealFeel®: -13°F

I hope you only have that leather jacket. . .

That is awesome. I don't care how cold it is; I envy you for having that much snow right at your doorstep.

To answer the titular question:

Yes, you will live. But you will be fucking miserable.

I have, this morning actually. Its about 20° today with no wind (for now).

Its gorgeous outside. Quiet, serene. I routinely walk back and forth between plants everyday and today I am without a jacket and its awesome.

You just hate Detroit for no good damn reason. Besides, I dont live in Detroit. No one does anymore, you should know that since you hate it so much.

[DarkReign]

BTW, we got another 2" last night. Should be getting 6-7" more in the coming days (so my coworkers tell me anyway).

[angel_luv]

Safe journey, Manny. :)

You are so dead.

First sub-zero temps of the season! It's -5 outside right now.

[Pistons < Spurs]

At 7 a.m. Wednesday morning, the air temperature in Ann Arbor was around 2 degrees, with a wind chill of nearly 15 degrees below zero, according to the National Weather Service. Overnight air temperatures dropped to around 7 below zero in Ann Arbor.

That wasn't the coldest air in the state. Temperatures in the western area of the Upper Peninsula registered at around minus 23 degrees at 1 a.m.

That bad news for those trying to avoid the cold?

It's supposed to get colder.

The National Weather Service says the temperature is supposed to climb only to a high of 10 degrees today. Overnight, air temperatures could get lower than last night, with wind chill values dipping to 20 degrees below zero.

Thursday will be frigid as well, meteorologists with the National Weather Service said, with temperatures not expected to climb above 5 degrees.

Wait a minute, why the fuck is Jekka in Detroit?

Also, is that beer or orange soda?

Also, if anything happens can I have all of your shit (if you have any)?

1) I'm in Ann Arbor for school.

2) It is beer, glorious beer, brewed at St Arnold's in Houston.

3) I think someone has already claimed the TV.

85 in LA today. I fucking hate it. 75 is my ideal weather.

[Jekka]

85 in LA today. I fucking hate it. 75 is my ideal weather.

The day before I left Houston last week, it was 83 with 90% humidity. Super gross. I was happy to be back in 20 degree cold. This 0 degree weather in the middle of the day is a little much, though.

[IronMexican]

I guess that's a good thing about out here, not much humidity. I I went to Vegas, that was hell. It was like you stepped outside and you were covered in sweat.

[PM5K]

Jekka is pretty and all, but I wouldn't risk my life to see her, unless I was Manny...

[ALVAREZ6]

I'm at Penn State right now...high of 7 degrees Farhenheit today...froze my tits off walking to class.

[Pistons < Spurs]

Welcome to Ann Arbor Manny!



Get out the shovels - again. Another blast of snow is coming tomorrow.

A low-pressure system headed our way from Canada is forecast to bring 4 to 7 inches of snow to the Ann Arbor area Saturday.

Some snow will fall throughout the day, with the greatest chance of moderate snow falling between 10 a.m. and 10 p.m., said Matt Mosteiko of the National Weather Service in White Lake Township.

Temperatures will drop to 7 below zero to 13 below zero overnight tonight, then rise to 20 degrees Saturday.

There's a chance of snow showers Sunday, when the high temperature is forecast to rise to 22 degrees.

[Slydragon]

I once flew to Detroit and it was cold and damn foggy. I knew we were landing but couldn't even see the ground until it was like 10 feet from us. That was crazy. I thought we were still pretty high and bam!! there was the ground.

Landing by just using instruments is super crazy. Pilots have huge balls.

[MannyIsGod]

Holy fuck. Its cold. And I don;t like that white shit everywhere.

[Slydragon]

Holy fuck. Its cold. And I don;t like that white shit everywhere.

Glad you got there safe :tu

[MannyIsGod]

I just changed Jess' wipers. Its like 9 degress or so out right now and it didn't really feel that bad.

Thanks to DLF and his wonderful Lions for keepinig my hands and head warm though.

[MannyIsGod]

Hey DLF the hat is helping me survive Santa Fe, too! Fucking -5 degree wind chill right now and supposed to get colder.

I really fucking hate winter.

[David Bowie]

A couple of Winters ago, it was constantly below 0 Farenheit here in Massachusetts all winter long. BRRRR .
