Default Cold Snap

How cold did it get at your home with this first bit of cold weather? I bet our Southern Sweeties froze in the 40 degrees temps they had!

44 at 5 AM?? I thought you were going to say high for the day!? Damn. Indoor parking FTW. Oh well, you go and enjoy your pina colladas, I'm perfectly content...except when I have to walk to work at 5 AM and it's only 15 degrees out.

Yeah, no kidding. 44 degrees, at 5 AM none the less. Bah, I wear my swimming suit when it's that warm out just in case I find a puddle large enough to go swimming in.

We're supposed to get a couple inches tonight and tomorrow, and then a supposed "snow storm" on Wednesday. I'm just starting to get antsy to go snowboarding. I'm starting to get snowboarding dreams again.

Not yet. Supposedly tomorrow afternoon and Wednesday is when we're supposed to get our first snowfall. We had maybe an inch last night but that was gone by lunch time today.

Better late than never I guess...

I think we've been down to around -10'F and we have about 9-10 inches of snow on the ground. I HATE IT!!!

Still no snow here besides the stuff on the sides of street and in the places wind doesn't blow. If we have a green Christmas, I'm going to be all sorts of sad.

Nice there is nothing nice about FLA Somthngfrce

But we do have a nice cold snap coming this weekend. upper 30's sat. night, and we're south of Orlando. Cold enough for a fire.... outside. Inside would over heat the house. But Florida sucks!!!!!! way way to hot and humid right Somthngfrce? It's a much a better life north of FLA so please stay up there.
