It should hit a delightful 87 today. Humidity is sill a touch high but that will change this weekend. looking at only a high of 77 on sunday and a break on the humidity. Not looking forward to the cooler weather. Too much effort digging in the closet for that one pair of jeans.

My first winter in FLA, I tried to go all winter without putting on long pants in the daytime, but gave up as it was in the 40's some days in Jan 2018.

It's 52F outside and pouring rain, with a high of only 56 predicted along with a high wind advisory. Last night when F came over he said there was a dense, bone chilling fog outside. This has been our first wintry weather of the season; our highs have mostly been in the low 80's or upper 70's so far.

I guess it's time to wear sweatpants instead of shorts, for the first time this fall. I still haven't turned on the heat but might have to tonight.

Sounds like much of the country is experiencing the same weather as we are having, today. Cold, rainy, windy...

This weather is awful!!

It was a little past midnight here in southeastern Pennsylvania when winter arrived and the cold front came in. There was a thunderstorm warning in effect. When I went to bed about 9:30 (yeah life of the party) and it was already breezy. This was however very different the wind was howling and it sounded like the house was in a washing machine. The Mrs had fallen asleep on her comfortable chair - that’s rare but it occurs. She came up to bed I’m sure she was startled by the storms intensity. It was the worse conditions that I can remember.

Just north of us a few houses were damaged by what is believed to be a tornado. Good thing that didnt hit at 5:30PM when the trick or treaters where out in mass

Low in the 30’s tonight welcome old man winter...

Today's high was 80F. Shorts, sandals, sunshine. Fairly normal for New Orleans.

But due to a cold front moving in, tomorrow's high is predicted to drop to 46F, with rain and wind gusts over 45 mph. Brrrr!! Then temperatures are supposed to drop even further, down to about freezing tomorrow night. F re-did the insulation on my outside faucets and so on for me.

I heard that some parts of the country are even expecting snow from this front. Hope you can stay warm tomorrow.

It's 40F right now on our end of the Gulf and getting windier and colder.

When I went to the hospital today for my surgery pre-admit meeting, it was 80F.

Hope you all stay warm and safe. It's going to be sunny and 55° for the next 10 days. Hopefully the snow starts soon as we desperately need moisture.

Nothing like driving on a sheet of bumpy ice, in heavy traffic, while still dark outside, with a fogged up windshield....I don't have this problem in July !

39F high and 22F low tonight. Cold rain early this AM has turned in to a damp, bone-chilling breeze. All day fire today!
