johnpablo541: That forecast for Pankshin is not correct. See one thing, weather forecasts normally do not take winds into consideration hence are known not to be precise. If a place is Windy, it makes the temperature lower and Pankshin is very windy and so foggy that people close to each other do not see themselves. Well, I am very sure you have never experienced the weather first hand in all these places, if not you will not even argue about it. You can see that other people commenting from the first page have been saying the same thing about Mangu. Any weather forecast claiming that Jos is colder than Pankshin or Mangu cannot be taken seriously. This is something that every single Plateau indigene or citizen will confirm to you. The highest point on the Plateau is in Kuru town and that place is naturally supposed to be colder. It is very windy too. I just googled and it's showing same temperature with Jos, that is actually impossible in the real sense. Point of correction, the lowest temperature ever recorded in Nigeria was 2°C in Yobe state, Google it. ....While the lowest in Jos was 3°C, I think sometime in the 80s...There are tales of that period and how so many of the newborn infants did not survive that year... I am from this place and was given firsthand info by my parents who experienced it. 1 Like |

Nowenuse: I'm cracking up here reading y'all's comment about the cold. This is nothing compared to winter time in America where the temperature falls to -5c or less depending on the state (mostly Northern US). My first winter here was crazy and I almost went back to Nigeria! I caught a really bad cold the following week (the flu viral strain here is different from Nigeria's and being new my body's immunity was totally defenseless), however I have not fallen sick to cold ever since till today. After a while you get used to it. It is 3c right now in Washington DC, and just two hours ago I wore a shirt and sports shorts to the gym and came back and I didn't feel the cold! Earlier this afternoon it was 15c and it was just perfect for me. Infact, I prefer colder weathers now to summers (OMG reminds me of when I served in Nasarawa ) and anything above 20c is quite hot for me. My favorite seasons are Spring (rainy season, right after winter, kinda still cold) and Fall/Autum (right after summer and ushers in winter). Some male Americans here even jog with boxers alone in the snow! 5 Likes

Nowenuse: like I said earlier, nowhere in Nigeria Gets as cold as 4°C, you measure temperatures with thermometers and not speculation, a lot of people just speculate just because the weather dropped. So if you say the forecast for Pankshin ain't correct can you kindly give us the correct forecast for Pankshin, in pictures, not speculation. I can sit down in my house and just say the weather for Warri today is 3°C but that is just speculation |

johnpablo541:How do you know this. You assert with so much authority based on what? That you believe it doesn't make it true. |
Re: Jos, Kano Residents Stay Indoors Due To Biting Cold Weather by johnpablo541(m): 6:03pm On Jan 06, 2020 |
0monnak0da: So someone that doesn't own a thermometer will just quote a temperature and you accept. I agree the weather dropped across the country but not to those temperatures people are speculating. Tell them to show you proof. Like i said i can just sit in my house and speculate that the temperature in Abuja was as low as 1 degrees today. Will you just accept my word of mouth. |
Re: Jos, Kano Residents Stay Indoors Due To Biting Cold Weather by 0monnak0da: 8:54pm On Jan 06, 2020 |
johnpablo541:I No I am not accepting. Silence does not equate acquiescence I am interested in the methodology You are doing exactly what you complain about Manufacturing your own facts The assertion you made about temperature ever recorded requires substantiation. A source. At best we can say it is unknown or doubtful. But to say temperature in Nigeria never reaches 4 degrees is such a sweeping statement to make . You must have some basis for that claim |
Re: Jos, Kano Residents Stay Indoors Due To Biting Cold Weather by johnpablo541(m): 1:47am On Jan 07, 2020 |
0monnak0da: I don't seem to understand you. Are you not the one saying the weather in Nigeria falls that low. And now you are saying i should show you evidences it doesn't. It's just like me saying HIV doesn't have a cure in Nigeria. And you are saying i should show you proof that states there is no cure for HIV in Nigeria. |

johnpablo541:Where did I talk about weather in Nigeria falling low? What has HIV got to do with this? In your eye that is reasoning |
Re: Jos, Kano Residents Stay Indoors Due To Biting Cold Weather by johnpablo541(m): 3:50am On Jan 08, 2020 |
0monnak0da:I was replying someone that said the lowest recorded temperature in Nigeria was 2 degrees, then you quoted my response to the person. i used the HIV analysis to simplify the explanation to you. Read your previous reply again. |
