HAAA.... you all forgot about what a great ski season this will be......
here's a picture of me flying down the slopes last year: (not).... actually, it's more like ....

Record highs predicted and beautiful here this morning...

Ugh... Looks too hot for me...

Puerto de la Cruz, Tenerife, Canary Islands this morning ...



And no cheating going on either; the thermometer had been standing in the shade for a true temperature reading. However the time on the clock is wrong by exactly one hour. It's remote controlled and it seems the nearest transmitter (probably on the African mainland) is an hour ahead of our time zone (same as GMT/London/Lisbon etc.)

The skies here have been a miserable grey since Friday. Right now, it's 64 and raining. A few days ago it was sunny with the temps in the high 80s, low 90s.

Yes, we have snow here...but then we're a mile higher than most of y'all....or in my case, slightly more than a mile...

I'm at about 150m (492 feet) above sea level. I can reach around 2600m (8530 feet / 1.6 miles) with about a 50 minutes drive. We'll have snow up there in winter too. But down here it rarely drops below 20 °C during the day.

Do I detect a hurricane on the horizon?

You are bringing a winter coat and boots with you on your driving trip next month, right?

Yea, that'll wipe the grin of jdog's face.

And Jeff is serious too, Jdog. It hit 45 today.

Good one Brian!

No snow yet in Southern Indiana USA. Temps down to the upper 30s at night and a LOT of rain have started to bring out the colors in my back yard.

10F last night, a bit more snow today, but it's been getting up to 30 or so in the daytime so with a bit of sun, the snow's mostly melted. Man am I glad this nice cool weather is back!

It has been quite cool at our lake property also but we are at 3000 ft above sea level or there abouts. It's supposed to snow lightly (turning to rain) up here in the mountains on Tuesday. I will be back home in the Okanagan by then though where it's supposed to be 19C by next Friday again.

I'm jealous!! 90 and humid again today....
