    fla cold
    I lived in Fla in the 70's and 80's and it snowed there once before, Jan, 73, but in all my years of living in Fla, it never got as cold as it has been these last 2 weeks. Now in NC and it snowed up here 15" last month and has been cold as a witch's ... since then, hasn't snowed or been this cold here since 77, from what I've been told. Lets hope it warms up a bit when furthur and the party rolls into town in Feb. Peace, love, dead.

    And I quote, from imbob, nov2, poet's corner...
    Winter The air must be discontented too, as it throws jagged icy daggers at my face. Mottled black and grey sky, echoes depression like a chorus of sympathetic, yet helpless friends. The snow has no choices, or opinions. It simply lives it's life as the snows before. Born of clouds, it falls through air, joining it's siblings on the ground below. Dogs and Children revel in it's family reunion. It's kinder to them, I thought while shivering. Frozen breath and wet clammy eyes, watching a world turn from green and brown to white. Age and Winter do not mix, I mused again. Like Cognac and Ginger Ale. The fit's all wrong. This scene is for the Canines and kids. The rest of us just trudge along.

    That snowstorm was a good start to winter here in Peterborough, Ontario. Did it meet your Montreal standards, Richard? There's a seriously slippery layer of ice on all the roads, due to the quick transition from snow to rain, then freezing. Still snowing now. Almost good enough to put my skates on and glide cross-country into town. Winter is here!

to our East coast friends! The weather's been pretty darn heavenly in the Bay Area the last few days; the smoke from the fires seems to be going elsewhere.

There was a hurricane named Bertha just a few years back that hit S. Carolina I think.. I remember ABC World News playing the Dead's Bertha on the evening news for the story.

85F at 6AM? And pushing 100% humidity? What a great day for the quarter and semi final rounds of my club championship. Hopefully it will melt my competitors instead of me. My alarm clock went off at the crack of dawn. I changed it from disturbingly annoying bleating to commercial radio. And instantly on comes Scarlet. I'm taking that as a good sign! And how do I mark my Titleist? With a red and blue bolt, of course... Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

woke up to rain, thunder and lightin! ahh,the desert smell so good after a storm, creosote, sage, mesquite! should make for a nice moist day, kinda feels like when you toss water on the charcol in the grill... pure heat with a wet smell, it did bring the temp down to 99* though. does make cold beer taste so much better floatin in the pool. clouds will be perfect for climbing this afternoon, must prepare myself : ) have a beautiful day peace

Humid in Phoenix: almost sounds like an oxymoron. Just did a road trip to Nashville for some honky tonkin, then down to Ft Myers to see my in-laws, followed by a long drive back to KC. Billboard images are still flashing in my brain. Corn crop looks good, so we should be able to make more ethanol and pay higher food prices. KC today is 94 in the shade, and my yard looks like a blow torch hit it: the lush green spring growth is OVER! I'll be out doing CPR on my tomatoes, jalapeno peppers and bush beans. "... I knew right away she was not like other girls....other girls'..."

62 degrees at 10 AM here on the Oregon coast with the fog starting to burn up. It usually stays in the 60's during the summer on the coast. But if you want it hot all ya gotta do is head up the river a few miles and it will be in the 70's, a few miles more and it's in the 80' s, and keep going and you'll hit the 90's and be ready for swimmin. Get to hot and just head back to the coast and nature's air-conditioning cools you off. I love it!

Ike roared through Erie yesterday, bringing 40mph sustained winds and gusts over 50mph. I'm glad we don't live near the coast lines I feel for you people. Not only the winds but the rains as well. Positive vibes for the folks that live in Texas all the way up through the Ohio valley.
