Love this weather. Just got back from a morning snowboarding a hike-in spot in the Vermont woods. Dry, fluffy powder.

That is why they changed it to climate change.

After milking I let Evangeline out. She trotted out, looked around and said "mooo!" which is cow for "Are you nuts? It is freezing out here!" She then trotted back into her box.

The bulb is on in the coop to keep the hens warm.

Oh, it is going to be a MESS once this cold snap is over.

I could tell it was going to be a hard winter while up there last fall. By the size of the firewood piles.

We used to forecast how bad a New England winter would be by the number of acorns on the ground.

Lots of acorns...a long, snowy, cold winter.

Then we moved to Florida and found the same thing with regard to tropical storms and hurricanes.

Lots of acorns...lots of storms.

Our cat will barely go out, for the past few days. I think he completely forgot about snow, since it had been about 10 months ago. Now it is cold, and supposed to be high on Sunday of 10 below.... He has become reacquainted with his litter box!

Lived in Coral Gables, across the street from the UofM in January 1977 when it snowed. We were able to have a short, furious snowball fight with the snow on the cars.

Quick recap:

The link you posted sent me to a page that had current temp of 70.4 degrees with 86% humidity. Your original post indicated that you were headed into a cold snap, I responded where in FL due to the eagles ‘Harriet’ and ‘M15’ panting due to heat.

Up to speed now?

Well, besides calling me a liar, and acting like you know what I did that day, I must say you are a real piece of work. Where in SF were you?

Will my koi die in this cold weather?

I read they evolved in the mountains north of Iran, where it is cold.

Wait: “Fish houses”?

I am sorry for your loss.

It is always sad to lose a cat.

The fish really liked the houses. You had excellent taste in choosing just the perfect curtains.
