Will be ??

In fairness tho, we're at a balmy 22° tonight, with a 41° heat wave guesstimated for tomorrow !

Which invariably means many of the idiots will be out in shorts, lowering their resistance to all manner of critters, and then hack/snot/sneezing it onto all the rest of us next week.

It's always somethin' . . .

I’m 20 miles north of Dallas and tomorrow, Sunday morning, will be in the 40s with cold rain. Sunday evening will be in the low 30s with freezing rain and sleet. Monday morning, bridges and roads will be icy. More sleet and possible snow will fall. Tuesday temps will still be below freezing. Finally by Wed., ice will go away.

This is the worst we have had since winter started. We won’t be on the road on Monday or Tuesday. We made sure we will have proper food until this is over.

One family member lives in Ithaca, New York, and one in Ohio. They really have it bad and have had it bad for a number of days.

I feel for all of you in northern states who are having such cold weather and snow and ice.

I’m in the Boston area and the cold is tolerable...doesn’t bother me at all, but the HUGE,8-10 foot snowbanks on corners makes pulling into some intersections very,very dangerous.

This too shall pass.:-)

Sorry, my brother and sister freepers. It’s been around 70 for weeks here in SoCal. However, we can do you one favor: we’re gonna rain down on all the fancy gowns and hairdos on the oscars. Which, even though I always watch the thing, makes me smile.

Oh, Boston. I have seen pictures of the snow piled up there. That water will have to go someplace so rivers are going to flood and go into homes along the way.

Every location in the country has risks of something. I did live in hurricane country, still have a house in that area.

Watch pulling out in the street and those corners when you can't see cars for the snow. Be careful.

Read an article on FR today and there are going to be black people outside the Oscars, demonstrating because there is no black person nominated to get an Oscar. Perhaps Al Sharpton will be there as he was the first to dump on the Oscar people for not having a black get an Oscar.

Yesterday in the I.E. (Inland Empire/SoCal) I was in shorts and tee shirt doing some garden clean up. Today was cooler had to wear long pants and long sleeve tee shirt. Rain tomorrow. We need it badly here in drought ridden SoCal. Too bad for the oscars, don’t really care if they get wet. :))

Did this writer just sober up? It has been Winter for some time!!

Seasonally, it has been Winter for a while - his observation is that it is only the first week of Winter and each of the weeks will be 2 years long before Winter is done...

Gee. 22?

That’s a heat wave.

It was -12 last night and it’s NOT the coldest we’ve hit here this winter by any means.

Trade?
