HOLY COW - it's 43 degrees!!
Feb 7^th, 2009 at 8:49am

Most of you warm climate folks will shiver at that number, but we've been at or below freezing all year! This temperature is like a gift from the almighty!!

I have to go look for shorts and a tank top under the longjohns and wool mittens. How long do you think it will take for 3 foot snow banks to melt so I can maybe cut the lawn some time today . . . . ?? Wink

Off to find sun-block and make iced tea.

They are calling for above freezing (during the day only), for the next several days, with the possibility of rain. That should make for some flooding. We haven't seen temps this warm for weeks. I swear...it feels like summer!!!!!!!

Reply #5 - Feb 7^th, 2009 at 9:19am Yes the weather sure does put a little spring in the step this morning. I'm going to go clean out the inside of the Aztec and take her through the car wash and get the winters worth of salt off of her. Not having a garage doesn't bode well in the rust prevetion strategy, but I'm doing what I can...lol.

The thawed ground is a bit mushy... will likely have to keep the carts on the path. Greens probably wont stop the ball either. But... it's still golfin!

We are having a heat wave here also, that is only because Carol hi-tailed it to the sunny south to escape this endless winter here. LOL Grin

Not quite shorts and a tee shirt weather yet, but better than those sub-zero temps and the 18 feet total accumulation of snow so far this winter! Smiley

So funny. It's raining here. My sister flew in from Minnesota last night - says she could have stayed home and had better weather!

Glad you all are getting a break from the cold.

Well its -11 celcius over here,and we got around 35 centimeter of snow the last 24 hours and expecting around the same during the night and tomorrow.Our main airport is closed and MAJOR delays on our trains and busses.And we have been adviced to stay inside if we dont have an emergency or just have to get out.
Couple of more days like this and Norway will stop

No wonder i always daydreaming about Pitcairn Island every winterseason.

BTW CHUCK,WE GOT A JOB FOR YOU HERE AS A SNOWSHOWEL Cheesy
