Yeah, it said 30* tonight but then they say 25* inland, 34* at the coast. At least the wind is a lot calmer.

It's kind of strange how that works around here. Although Crawfordville is further south than Tallahassee, it is also at a lower elevation. So since cold air is denser and heavier than warm air, which means it will run downhill, the temps here are often colder than they are north of us.

About time we had some winter after the last 2 warm winters. I love this fast jet that crings us change every few days. Get ready for a real cold jolt this coming week.

Yeah, I see it. The forecast on my desktop is calling for a low of 21 Monday night and a low of 20 Tuesday night.

You know, I've never really understood people down here saying they love cold weather. If you want it, move to where it is, don't wish it on the rest of us that hate the crap.

Wish I could have afforded the land prices further south when we bought property here.

If I had wanted this cold weather, I would have stayed in Mich. I'm waaay too spoiled now to want to deal with this crap.

-2*F this morning when I got up. Ya don't stay outside very long in those temps!
The only thing that's a positive is that there is no wind today, so it's not too
bad as long as you keep active. Layers upon layers, hand warmers, boots 2 sizes
to large and enuf socks to take up the space, head socks, etc., etc., etc.
Take the precautions, don't stay outside too long, and listen to what your fingers
and toes are telling you, and it's do-able. Don't much like it, but it is what it is, and
hopefully we'll be outta here permanently sometime this year!
Andy

Don't get me wrong. I just love weather change in the winter, bring me heavy rain, then colder then warm it up and do it all over againe every few days. I just get sick of 20 days in a row of humid ,sunny weather in the winter.

I also don't like it getting colder than 45. I just love weather and like seeing change.

Yeah, I can relate to that. Actually I enjoy a good thunderstorm. Especially if I happen to be staying at the beach and watch it take place over the Gulf of Mexico. Thunderstorms viewed at a distance are impressive beasts.

But temps dropping down into the low 20s? I can live without that, thank you very much.
