Ya, lived in both areas. 80 degrees + up north, and I get whinny calls from my friends up there how we can deal with the heat down here.......

BTW, now where getting rain, sleet & snow here. Yep, no salt trucks here or plows... Living up north this would be a normal Jan. day, but here things just stop.... Makes for rough driving in these hills with 10 degree grades all over, not flat like MI.....
Wish I had my old snowmobiles now...............

I wasnt complaining,I was just talking about what type of weather we are having. :P Ok...maybe I was,but it wasnt about how cold it is,it was because it was raining when it was below freezing out. :P

Hot under the collar. :lol: :lol: Havent heard that one in a long time. Nah,ya didnt.

I remember one year on harvest,we were cutting barley for the booz makers,or what ever they use that itchy stuff for,north of Grand Forks,ND. The farmer's wife asked me how cold it gets in Texas. She made a remark about our 40 degree weather as compared of their -40 degree weather. I was like yeah,so how hot does it get here? 85? 90? :P

At least the Grand kids are having a ball. Kerrville just shut down. They predict 3 to 8" of this "Northern" stuff??

Ah crude, it was snowing in L.A. the other day, now it's snowing south of San Antonio, Tx, geez what's next?? Key West, Fl freezes over?? Must be El Nino again :lol: Here we were 73 yesterday in the Mid-Atlantic and today it's a high of 39 with what looks like snow clouds hanging over us. It's all good though, as long as it decides to stay cold for the next couple of months so that I can get over this sickness I have. My allergies have gone nuts and I broke out with a cold that slowly turned into bronchitis. This 75 to 35 is bad for people like me with allergies.

On the Noon News today they said it had JUST started snowing in the Carolina mtns. Expecting UP TO one full INCH by Midnight! Avery county schools have allready closed and sent the kids home! :shock:

We're expecting a few hours of "mixed" snow or freezing rain Thursday morning. The SNOW DESK on Channel 9 will be fully operational and posting updates every FEW minutes! Jeez!!!

That's like here where at the mere threat of a storm, the local news preempts all programming for about 48 hours until all the weather is over :shock:

At HOME, yes!! Safe??? Probably not! :lol:

I got through Texas a few days ago with perfect timing. Due to a layover in Cali, I missed the worst of it (though you wouldn't know it by all the warnings of CHAOS by the truckers heading West!) A little ice on the bridges! OOOh!! They should have been there LAST year when it was a truck parking lot with lights reflecting off the interstate covered in an inch of ICE! Doubles couldn't get up the "hills!"

Right now, I'm "cowering" at home hoping I don't have to hit it again on the way out! :lol:

Actually, my trucks broke again, so I may be home for a few.
