You guys do everything backwards!

A bit of snow this morning, but at least it's a balmy 16F! Forecast is for a high of 5 tomorrow and a whopping 1 on Monday. But at least the lows are only supposed to get to -12F...

Last time I experienced that I was in Estonia... I'm glad we don't have such temps in Holland! Time for an acoustic and a log fire for you, though

Dropping to 25 overnite here in the Atlanta area (I didn't move far enough south...)

Hi CJ,

we actually had a week of summer about a month ago, mid to high 30'sC. And we received all our average November rain in one 12 hour period. It's down back to low to mid 20's at present. Who knows what will happen over the next few months!!! With Melbourne's variable weather you're never bored !!!!

5" of snow here in Northern NJ

Can someone please remind me why I live here??!!!

Because you love scraping ice off your windshield in the winter?

We've only got a couple of inches, but it's a balmy 9F, up from 1 over night. Ice is something we rarely have to scrape here in Northern Montana, even the snow is easy to remove, you just brush it off. Since it usually snows when it's 10F or below, it comes down as dry powder. It blows around a lot, makes some insane snow drifts. Now those can get a bit tough to deal with at times...

Shoveled 3 some in. off the walk when I arrived home from practice, and I'll be dammed if the sun didn't come out and start the meltdown 10 minutes later. Frrr....

Lows around forty lately. It's supposed to rain here tonight and tomorrow. Laying in supplies of chocolate and movies ...

3F right now, headed down to -10 tonight. High tomorrow is only supposed to hit 3F. Tomorrow night's supposed to be -16...

Today's high was a mere 63 degrees here in Long Beach, CA today...that's scarf, boots, beanie, and trench coat weather for us here in Southern California...

In the Boston area we have garages for that.

Actually, I lived 45 years without a garage and my wife and I finally bought a house lady May and last night we put our new garage to good use: instead of storing junk in there, we parked our cars (tandem) in there and avoided the snowfall.

I also bought a small snowblower (electric), and it made short order of the driveway and walkways around the house. Other than having to clean it up around the house, driving in it, walking in it and having it pull down the power lines, snow is quite nice.
