The Space Shuttle Challenger launch was canceled more than once (IIRC) due to ice ...
My sister in law cancelled all morning classes at her fitness center there. Down south, just a tad of snow and they go crazy.
Yes, call Uncle Al to fire up his scam to save Florida...
More media stupidity. Sand does nothing to lower the freezing point of water. It's merely for traction.
And why is the Highway Patrol and not the DOT in charge?
The Wall is down and the dead are coming. Winter is here.
But this doesn’t count like when they had some flooding. Hmm
I have a basic condition for accepting global warming. It should actually get warmer.
It snowed in Pensacola a few weeks ago when Trump was there.
When I lived in Florida, we had central A/C. If it got cold enough to need heat, there was a way of heating by turning on a coil in the A/C unit, which would then blow warm air.
Because it was used so seldom, a years worth of dust(which is mostly made up of shed skin cells), hair, and other nasties would build up on the coil, and when turned on, smelled so bad that one was better off c-c-cold!
Now I live in the Boston Area, and praying my furnace will hold on!
Yesterday it snowed in Tennessee
I heard it also snowed in Tallahassee
But not a flake fell on little ol’ me,
‘Cause I was in shu shu shu,
shu shu shu,
shu shu shu shu shu shu, Sugartown.
Small rewrite of an old Nancy Sinatra “hit”.
When I was teen (late 70’s) living about an hour south of Orlando, Florida we had a dusting to 1” snow fall. The weather patterns are cycling back to what they were.
And everything was slowed waaaaay down this morning. Schools were closed, FSU cancelled classes and I-10 was shut down in stretches.
Any FReepers reporting weather, from Lake City, FL?
It’s funny how the “climate change experts” were saying a few years back how our children would never be seeing snow again.
We had flurries once when I was attending FSU.
I understand it was snowing in Titusville yesterday. It’s just bitter out there! And, our power is out! (apparently caused by loose wire, or such, on the transformer near our house). Line crews on the way.
Don’t tell Al Bore,
yes, global warming makes things colder ... it’s a “scientific” fact ...
It is cold, rainy, and raw here in Clearwater, FL. Brrrrrr this global warming stinks.
Yep, schools were canceled and some businesses closed for the morning. There was a lot of sleet, more than I’ve ever seen here. Then there was a sustained period of snowfall... far more than the occasional once in 5 years flurry.
