        Too much 40° rain here last night, our 20" of snow is just about gone - but it was here for a beautiful Christmas Eve & Day!

          It's gross here. And I'm not feeling too bad about not getting my kids up to the mountains - the forecast further north for today and tomorrow is pretty yucky.

              I've got to get out of here!!!! I can't bear this for another 12 weeks! There are a few warmer climate last minute RCI things that are screaming my name....too many sport related injuries and that last one is just doing me in this winter.

              One of the weather sites said the arthritis factor was low here today. Oh really? What am I going to feel like when it's high?

              Two more years and I'm transferring to the home office.

                Gee, you guys, I'm sorry for all the bad weather. We've been pretty lucky here in So. Cal, but many would say the weather is the best part, these days.
                I wish you sunshine, but I fear you're right about what the winter promises to offer. Must be that "Global Warming" acting up again.
                I hope you'll have a gentle winter. Jean

                  It's a cold 76 degrees right now down here. Brrrrrrrrrrr.

                  It's a little overcast so that must be the reason we are feeling the chill.

                        I often think of you when I hear the news about the weather back east but you have other advantages so that makes up for it.

                        It is cold here too and last night it was colder here than in NYC. It was so cold that I checked all the temperatures that are plugged in on my iPhone just to know what they were. It was not freezing yet but it sure felt like it.

                          My air conditioner just cycled on. It's set for 78 degrees.

                          You know I'm freezing down here.
