Boy, Minnesota has never seen single digits in December, have they?

Now November snow in Tokyo, multiple hard freezes in Seoul, far northern Philippines down into the mid 60's, and even here in Manila, dew points as low as 64.  January weather in mid November, that is impressive.

Suck it up, snowflakes.  Now it's your turn to get the Siberian air.

Baby, it's cold outside.

It's called "winter".

Sure could use a spritz of that global warming I keep hearing cultist yammer mindlessly about...

Oh well, dress in layers it is...

It snowed last night - about 2.5 inches. It's gone from the street now but there's still some lingering on the grass. Supposed to drop to around 26 tonight. I had to turn on the heater in the garage bathroom to keep the pipes from bursting.

Yep - it's winter.

I'll give you that the -24 predicted in the Twin Cities will be a record for the day (there have been colder records already in December), and will be the coldest it's been in a few years.

I'll also give you that it will be over 100 degrees warmer where I'm at.   ::evil::

Have a good Friday/Saturday.   ::snoshovel::

On the plus side...no bugs, bangers will be trapped inside and I don't have to worry about jungle rot.   ;D

Christmas winter coming, oh no's!

 ::)

I used to see some impressive fog when I was stationed in San Diego...some mornings driving the Coronado bridge it looked like you were about to drive off the end of the earth.  Also saw some good fog at Yellowstone, Rocky Mt NP, Aleutian's, Smokey Mt's, around hoe and at the lake.  I've always liked fog, like how it softened everything and gave an air of mystery, danger...

And it figures...
