In all tge decades I have lived here I don’t remember feeling cold like dis. Every window is closed and I a wearing a sweater. The wind factor is real.

word is all water sport has been stopped and there are huge waves on the coast. It’s 57 in Mandeville and 59 in the Blue Mountains.

should be warmer by Wednesday.It has been colder than usual since Saturday.

I’m betting records are being broken.

@Chrissy

Yes, winter has visited Jamaica and a few other northern Caribbean countries. Could return again next week, according to forecast.

steeeeuuuuppppsssss...61 and complaining...

@Chrissy

Yup! If any winter is gonna do it, it will be this one. Anyway, as I mentioned here recently, I have experienced 59°F weather there in Kingston in he first half of the 1970s, so I'm not surprised.

--Æ.

My Goodness, 61F and you call that Winter?

What will you call minus 13 F (and that is without windchill)

And even so I saw a few guys in shorts at Costco and a lady in slippers and PJs shoveling her driveway.

@JayMor

a first for me

@WI_cricfan

It is if you're in The Caribbean, especially if you aren't in Blue Mtn or Coleyville, Manchester

@Brerzerk

I know peeps in Manchester JA who have fireplaces.

@Chrissy

Even in parts of St. Andrew Hills such as Banana Walk, don't even talk about Irish Town/New Castle

@JayMor

heard a man in Mandeville saying that the last time Mandeville was this cold for this long was 1977.

It was a nice cool weather, just screw up the water sports as you said. I see the expectation is for another one to pass by this weekend.

@dayne

Alyuh push that bobsled narrative too dyamn much, fafo

@WI_cricfan

It's all relative you know......

People living in Oymyakon, Siberia, Russia... is the coldest permanently inhabited place on Earth, with temperatures plunging to -96 deg F.... this village of roughly 500 residents experiences brutal winter conditions where schools close only if temperatures drop below -52 deg C (-61.6 deg F)

They would look at the USA and Canada winter weather as their Summer...

It’s not relative; it’s a simple case of what you’re accustomed to and what you expect

all this mine is bigger than yours business completely misses the point and diminishes people’s experiences and observations

and is sad 😀
