It must be colder I though, the Red Sox have won two world series. Does this mean
that it's -1000 F. Or maybe you mean the Cubs.

Comin' from Detroit, I used to laugh as the only time mom would drive with the top up on the convertible was if it was raining or snowing. Nothing better than that humid biting cold around the Great Lakes. It would go through 4 pairs of corderoy trousers and leave you numb in a few minutes, so we never stopped moving as kids.

so far this fall Texas has been good in my neck of the woods.

average high 78F (approx)

average low 45F (approx)

i dont expect East Texas to get much lower than the 15 - 20 degrees F for a low.

but i do expect 2 good ice storms.

Last time i saw snow was 2 years ago... in APRIL wierd
