Default Cold a** Colorado

Well, I'll be freezing my balls off tomarrow and Thursday running emt, and fmc between cell blocks for a new state prison that I'm at. Sucks that its 30 miles east of Denver, no wind protection what so ever, other then the cells. I'll need to most def wear the over-all's for the first time this season. But hey, I'll survive. Just wanted to bi*** a little!! Hope everyones having a good night!

I was on the roof of a building in an airport this am. I had insulated bibs over pants and three T shirts a sweat shirt and a hoodie and I was wishing I had my Carhartt suit in the truck.
Talk about a spot with no wind break around.

It to was uncommonly mild this morn. Wore a tee-shirt and jeans all day with a peak temp of 71 degrees. Tommarrow and thurs are going to be in high 20's for highs. Shock to my spoiled system!

It was @35f on the truck thermometer but the wind gusts felt like ice needles all day, not to mention we were in the shade of the RTUs all day..

Oh yeah, I remember the good ol days of hooking up motor starters on a mid winter, bone chilling, finger frozen roof. Not very fun!!!!!!!! Roofs suck. Summer your sweeting your a** off and in winter your an ice cube.

It was nice today. It was suppose to snow but it was sunny almost all day. I was in a t-shirt 90% of the day. Has been really nice so far the last couple of months. No complaints from me.
