Winter

It was 70 here this morning. Tomorrow morning it's supposed to be 30. Winter is finally catching up with Florida.

Here in Central Alabama, it got down to about 14 f last night and high of around 19 f today. About the same tonight and then a slight warm up. I have seen -7 f here, a long time ago. That was freaking cold for a southern boy.

That is about how it usually is in Central Alabama.

I’ve see two guys on motorcycles this week. One at 1030pm. We have snow and ice and single digit temps.

Why does the inside of that door and frame look more like what the outside understandably does? 😵‍💫

Worn door seal most likely, it's also the employee entrance on the hospital side of the complex I work at. It gets used frequently by staff.

This made me chuckle I'd think they'd be migrating north though?

Long time, since I've seen that many sunny days in a row. Wet, windy and cold here

It's so cold here in Vermont that I hear Bernie Sanders had his hands in his OWN pockets this morning......

Florida winter .

I did that 1 time only about 50 years ago. My wife & I went to see my mom ,she drove the car & I rode the Triumph I had. About 20 miles in low 20 degree temps wearing a leather coat & Jean's. Coldest I ever been in my life .
When I got in the house it was close to 15 minutes holding my hands almost on the top of a wood burning heater before I could uncurl my fingers . If I were to ride one now it would be warm like really really warm .

A guy in my town rides his year round. I'm not certain what the motorcycle is, but it's olive drab green, and the kicker is it has a sidecar!

I just hate the really cold weather . If you think the last minute shopping on Christmas eve is bad just imagine trying to find a well pump control box on Christmas eve. Because you have no water . Then imagine your in the 13 degree weather on a service call searching for why the unit you installed a new blower motor in a week back has quit heating now.
And nice guy you are you can't say no because they have relatives coming from Tenn for Christmas & last night the customer & his family had to stay in a hotel to escape the cold .

Then imagine your in the car headed home with the heater & seat warmer both turned on high & doing it . About the only good thing with the cold are the last 2 .

Was out until after dark last night repairing freeze ruptures. Of course, whenever I plan to have a day off I get slammed. And nice guy I am, I can't say Ill see you tuesday Ive got my feet up and remotely monitoring my pool equipment, besides I have jewelery to pay for Being Texas it will be 70* on wednesday so..
