it's a wonderful 15 degrees today in Tulsa. This global warming thing is really heating it up.

Northern DE has ice and freezing rain this AM. Right now, it is sunny and the mid-40s. Go figure.

By now, in Seattle, they are probably replanting their gardens for the new year.

Portland knows how Seattle feels. We got some snow last Sunday, but by Monday afternoon you could drive most places except the hills. Got a little more later in the week, but mostly just cold and sunny.

Then yesterday it snowed all day. I know it will seem strange to lots of you, but I can't recall it ever snowing from sunup to sundown and I've lived here all my life. This morning the freezing rain came in. Good thing Portland has a nice transit system.

I went outside at 8:30 this morning to shovel my driveway and it was 12 degrees below zero.

Fortunately, the dome season is taking a holiday break.

Balmy 38 degrees in Northern VA with 25 mph wind gusts. Another day in paradise.

Plenty of snow on the ground out here in Sunny CA and reaching low 30s (up from last week thankfully).

I hate the winter, I want it over with and I want to get on the field for summer ball.

I think it's only been above zero for a couple of minutes that last couple of weeks. Snow and blowing snow with wind-chills dipping down to -45 degrees fahrenheit.

I love winter and the snow, even in CA

Inasmuch as I already had you pegged as an odd cat; I'm not surprised.

What is odd about liking winter and snow? Jump on over to Squaw, Alpine Meadows, Kirkwood, Heavenly, Sierra and a few smaller areas and see how many "odd cats" you find that like winter and snow.

Next thing you know, you'll be telling me it was odd to be out on the patio Saturday night into Sunday morning slow-cooking some baby back ribs. Then coming out Sunday and chipping away all the ice to finish them off.

But Mike, just how much "anti-freeze" did you have in you then?

In Them? Or him?

Even in ETex it is cold. Never got out of the 30's and it
snowed just a tad, but no stick'em.

By the way, kirkwood is right up the road. Those fricken flatlanders dont even know what snow is. They put on their cute little suits and drive their little suvs up to the "yippie warm fluffy snow" and prance around then go shiver at the lodge until they drive back home, provided of course no snow is actually on the road. If there is so much as a speck on the road, they panic and are "snowed in" Heaven forbid you are behind one of those idiots when they are trying to drive it.

I'm pretty sure you live in the frozen ice tundra, so you know what it is and you still like it!

That makes you an odd duck!
