;D ;D 3C here at 8:30 which is tame for us. Mind you, the southern summer heat and humidity would lay me out flat so it's all in what we are used to.SpencerPJ said:Ya'll not getting any sympathy from me

PancakeBill said:warm at Old Faithful, but I am no longer living there, 25 deg with forecasted high of 29 and snow by mid day. We are in Tucson, should be a high of 78 and about 50 last night low, but in a few days we leave for Santa Fe, with arrival on Sunday, apparently in snow.

JackL said:Key Largo, Fl. right now at 4;52 AM it is 57 degrees out side.
I put the propane gas on to take the chill off here in the trailer and as soon as it got to 72 turned it off and turned on our little electric space heater
it is supposed to get up to 68 this afternoon
It's too cool for water sports today, so I'll get some of the stuff on the "to do list" done

Compadre said:So, I'm curious. We northerners always hear the southerners moaning about near freezing temps. I do understand. Is the southern winter occurring now, meaning Dec-Jan? Last 3 years, wife and I have headed south in mid Feb, hit cooler temps on occasion but never close to freezing. Seemed like Spring was on its way. When is it the coldest, and when does it start to break?

Personally, I love the snow. It's those below zero temperatures that I dislike.

I grew up in WV and lived for 1 year on the UP of Mi but have been in SoFL since 1976. We are now entering our growing season where a freeze could be devastating. We see cold weather only on occasion but will get 1 or 2 days of cold at a time from late Dec through Feb. every once in a while we see a night where it may get cold enough to freeze but generally only last a night or 2. I have been here so long I can feel really cold when it gets below 60, of course age helps. I love a day or 2 of cold as it makes the fruit trees bloom better.Compadre said:So, I'm curious.

NY_Dutch said:I had to chuckle at that line... The humidity here in NY's Southern Adirondacks is 42% today, and just 36% in Lakeland, FL.

I had a similar experience. I grew up in Boston and was living and working in Nashua, NH in the late 60s early 70s. We were flying to Reston, VA on a weekly basis. The first time we were there and they had snow flurries the employees were in a panic as to when they would call off work and send everyone home. The three of us from NH just laughed and waited until everyone left and then went to dinner. The streets were deserted except for those trying to get home.UTTransplant said:I mentioned this experience in the chat last night. I used to travel to Melbourne FL for work on a regular basis, maybe every 3-5 weeks. I was there once when a cold snap came and the weather folks on TV were basically saying 30-32 was dangerous for cars, your dog would die, and it was probably the apocalypse. Ok, that?s a slight exaggeration but not much. This Iowan had a lovely day in the crisp air wearing a light jacket. Dinner was lovely too since everyone else stayed home! My team laughed and laughed about that trip. It is all in what you are used to.
