Early this morning, it was a couple degrees warmer at our home in Maine than it was here in east central Florida. Crazy! It warmed up here to around 59 degrees, now dropping into the 40s for the night.

Doesn't it just drive you batshit when that happens, Mak1? We had that just about all winter, where it was very cold in South Texas and very warm in WA state.

We're in that annoying spot where we have been teased by spring weather but winter isn't ready to let go. I want warm weather! It's almost March 1st, time for it to start warming up so we can look at all our northern friends here and say "Nanny, nanny boo-boo!" Nineteen degrees this morning and my grandson already wants outside to ride his new bike. Maybe it will warm up quickly. Maybe.

Good thing it's a Saturday and I am glad I don't have to go to work. I went out to my car this morning and all the doors are frozen shut.

Juju, yes we are going batshit. This has been the 5th coldest February in this area's history. We are getting tired of the three warm outfits we brought. Today it's gray and rainy and 46 degrees. People at home were having spring fever this week, with temps similar to ours and lots of bare ground breaking through. It's all in one's expectations and perceptions.

I know what you mean, Mak1. People in other parts of the country think you are just crying the blues, but they are sitting in an insulated house with lots of cold weather clothes and coats and such, while you shiver in your one long sleeved shirt and your cloth shoes. And all your other stuff is tropical. We left Texas a month early and are glad we did. All of February continued to be rotten down there.

The coming week is predicted to be another cool one. You really do notice the difference in the home insulation! I remember laughing at my in-laws when they used to tell us they were cold down here. We were in snow with 10 degree temps, and they were complaining about it being 50. Now I get it. On a sad note, the news reported that around 200 manatees have been found dead due to cold stress.

We had snow and no school again yesterday. Snow fell through the late evening and overnight; DH had trouble getting home from work--didn't get in until 4:00 a.m., when he is usually home by 2:30 a.m. when on afternoon shift. He got up today and went out again, once again leaving early after DD shoveled some snow from the sidewalk. The little sweetheart renewed the path to Daddy's car out at the very end of the driveway. My van is parked just behind DH's car, but it's been stuck in deep snow for over a month. I haven't left the house in over a month!

We had a bit of rain tonight, I didn't even know it was raining and wouldn't have except that Darren had class tonight and was on his way home when it started. What we have a whole lot of is wind, my windows are rattling and a couple small limbs fell from the trees. It's also cold, really cold.

Surprise rain today here. Actually I think we were expecting some, but it was fairly clear this morning and then out of nowhere it started pouring hard, really hard, for about 20 minutes then stopped. I went out about an hour later and it was clear blue skies, no hint of it having rained except a couple little puddles.

Horrible, hard rain right now. It was pretty nasty earlier, cold, windy and cloudy than started raining about halfway through Kota's practice (coach cancelled it at that point.) Then it stopped raining until just a few minutes ago.

The rain has made it here. We're under a flood warning due to 3 or 4 inches expected. But the temps are mild (50s) and the snow is gone in my yard!!! Now the ground goes mush mush mush when you walk on it.

The weather is truly frightening here. Incredible winds and rain, worse than any hurricane I have seen here in NY. I live on the water and the boats are flying around and the dock looks like it is going to break apart.
