Colossus' parents are still without power and it looks like it may be weeks before it is back on. We are going to take a generator over for them unless we can talk them into packing up and heading up here for a few weeks. They are pretty stubborn, I'm guessing we'll have to go there.

People in non-snowy parts keep asking those in snowy parts to send them some snow, but this grandpa actually did it! Grandpa trucks snow to grandkids

LOL That's great! Too bad I'm too cheap to actually send some. I'd gladly talk to "mother nature" about doing something freaky and sending it to you all with the warm temps and WANTING the stupid stuff!! ROFL Well, it never warmed up like it was supposed to on Sat. and we'll see how hight it actually gets on Sunday. Monday and Tuesday we're supposed to get something awful, but they're not sure HOW AWFUL. Great...... just what we need.... NOT.

there is still time. go pack a bag (warm clothes only) and get to the closet airport ASAP and tell them you need a flight to Boston.

We got a whopping 2½--3 inches of snow this morning, and yep, schools are closed, lol. But, in their defense, there was a lot of ice and black ice. Best to keep the school buses off the roads.

We came to Florida to get warm. LOL! I am glad I wore my winter coat on the way down, because I wore it again tonight. It's in the 30s! Of course, there is no ice or snow on the ground and it will be in the 70s by the weekend, so I'm not really complaining....just surprised. Sorry, Dfen.

I can undrestand regarding the drought conditions, esp. when you get those horrible fires out there. The odd thing here is, we can be dying in the snow up to our hips and freezing our butts off and then come the end of July, we might be in a drought. It's crazy! It all depends how much run off from winter and then rain in the Spring how long we can go w/o rain in the summer before the farmers are really hurting. I do like the 71F I must admit! I loved when I was in Italy it would be so hot and humid, but it would always open up with a good little shower in mid afternoon and then clear up again. It really seemed to happen every day.

yes, our farmers here were told that they were going to have to start using the ground water because of the drought. we just need some water/rain/snow come out of the air from some other universe so that we can replenish things. lol.

We are supposed to get some of that water tomorrow and to the weekend, but we'll see. It has been pretty warm the last couple of days but supposedly will drop maybe 20 degrees tomorrow (later today).

It's 49 right now, up from the 30's it's been at this time. It apparently rained overnight, and we're supposed to have more rain today, so that should keep the temperature up a bit.
