I quit watching the Weather Channel when NBC took over. They ruined a good thing, as usual. Now, it is mostly reality series.
That's still Cold for Florida Dick, but I bet you didnt Dress Up like an Eskimo when you took Archie to the Dogie Park! ^_^It was 42 degrees in Lake Wales this morning. I didn't hear about the 29 degrees in Orlando.
Penny can keep her 29 and I'm OK with 42. I still take Archie to the dog park each day.
"They" are now saying that Tuesday morning, our low will be 32 not 29. That is still pretty darn cold. However, Sunday "they" are saying our high will be 79, which is above normal. Boots in the morning and flipflops in the afternoon. :lol:It was 42 degrees in Lake Wales this morning. I didn't hear about the 29 degrees in Orlando.

What is a dog park? It sounds like a place where you park your dog.It was 42 degrees in Lake Wales this morning. I didn't hear about the 29 degrees in Orlando.

It's a park designed for people to come with their dogs and let them off-leash so they can interact and play with other dogs. (The park is always fenced.) They provide bags and such for waste, and there are usually lots of open, grassy areas, trees, sand pits, and things dogs can play with/on/around.What is a dog park?

:help: :giggle:
In 1990 we actually had snow on the ground here. Maybe 2-3 inches, enough for a small snowman. Maybe 4-5 years ago the low was 19 or so and my kids "ice skated" on our patio. They ran some water, let it freeze (almost immediately) and then went out and skated around in their shoes. Then again, about 8-9 years ago it was over 90 here in January and we were having water gun/hose fights and the kids were in the play pool while the east coast was in single digits. 68 is pretty normal for winter here.So true Dan, but the forecast is for a bone-chilling, below average temp. of 68° by the end of next week!Hmm..it was 80 here in the So Cal (near) desert a few days ago.
?? Inches of what? I do not comprehend. :lol:
I thought Amtrak would swap out Viewliners with the Silvers, to send them down to FL to thaw out.The weather forecast for Tuesday morning in Orlando is 29.
Every county to the North and East, but not us yet. May make getting to church interesting.Ryan, I just got a freezing rain warning for tomorrow morning. Are you going to get it also?
I was not happy with that picture when I saw it this morning. I had to make a special trip to the store to make sure I had supplies to last until Tuesday.
Brent decided to go shopping as usual today. I told him to stay home since we have enough food and such to last the whopping 48 hours it'll take to clear the roads. He ignored me and then texted me a few hours later to say he was stuck at Meijer with a ton of people. They had every checkout lane open, and they were still 5-6 people deep in every line. Haha.I was not happy with that picture when I saw it this morning. I had to make a special trip to the store to make sure I had supplies to last until Tuesday.
When all Meijer lanes are clogged, you know everyone is panicking. You folks may get more snow than me, so you might lay in some extra supplies. Kzoo looks to be in the sweet zone for snowfall. I'm headed for cold - much colder than the -13 I recorded last week.Brent decided to go shopping as usual today.

I have a bottle of wine leftover from NYE and a bunch of new books to read, so bring it, snow.
Well it is warmer in Miami where the Silver trains end, so they'll still thaw out down there even if it doesn't start in Orlando or Jacksonville.I thought Amtrak would swap out Viewliners with the Silvers, to send them down to FL to thaw out.The weather forecast for Tuesday morning in Orlando is 29.
Without that option now, how to they thaw them out?
In 1949 we a real snow storm. It started snowing about 10 PM and by 6 AM there was 12-14 inches on the ground in the San Fernando Valley. The cold weather (teens and twenties) hung around for three days before the snow began to melt. First and only "snow days" I ever had --- school or work (military service does not count, they don't have snow days --- ever).In 1990 we actually had snow on the ground here.
