It's 77 degrees here right now at 10:00pm.
Had to wear socks with my shorts and have to button my polo shirt.
It's going to get down to about 65 tonight. May need to keep the ceiling fan over my bed turned off. Brrrr.

Is the bone chilling, eyeball freezing cold in winter. Very dry cold that goes right through your clothing.

And we lost power - just to put a cherry on top of the experience. Thanks Commonwealth Edison.

Summer before last we had a massive straight line wind storm blow through. Air temperatures around 100 with 70°+ dew points for 4 days straight with no power. I'm thinking this weekend is time to go get that generator.

about eight inches. A couple more days and Anchorage would have beat the old record for latest first snowfall.

Supposed to get into the lower teens tonight.
Supposed to be in the lower 40's by Wednesday & 49 by Friday, so it won't last.

Fortunately, the roads are clear. This is my first winter in the mountains. Yikes.

Nobody puts their home state in their profiles any more so it gets confusing.

If you live in Maine or Minnesota and it's snowing, all I can say is "Eh, what else is new?"

If you live in Los Angeles, I would be stunned.

It never snows here in November. In fact it's been years since we've had snow before January.

but I haven't seen any yet.

Snow showers or flurries aren't that unusual in central Maryland during November and December. Snow rarely sticks on the ground until after Jan. 1.
