::Grumble:: It's not funny! I have to head back to NC for school, and instead of getting to enjoy my last couple of days in warm weather before the beginning of the semester, it got cold here (I'm at home in FL) too!

Little late on the post the front has come and gone and has already started to warm up. We usually get about one freeze every 3 years down here in S. Florida. It's a nice change having to wear shoes and a jacket instead of flip flops and a Bahama shirt (wore that for New Years).

I remember growing up having a white Christmas in Jacksonville one year. The city closed all the bridges so we had to pick everyone up in the boat for Christmas dinner.

Ill be back in short by Sat and all you northerners will still be bundling up.:rotfl:

What happened to global warming? Sounds like global cooling to me. Ice Age anyone?

I shovelled a couple of feet of global warming off my driveway this past weekend...

We had the warmest year in Germany since collecting weather data has started, and a constant rise of mean temperature sin the past years and decades. 2007 was mild in winter, rainy in summer, but all in all the warmest year, meteorologists say. the number of flooding events has increased by a factor of five in the recent 20 years. And snow in the Alpes in more and more years becomes an extremely precious item. If you want to do skiing, do it now. In 20-30 years you will be left with walking and climbing only.

If Flordia would invite Al Gore down to speak about this, there would be enough hot air to warm things up.

What a tool....

and meanwhile--the upper midwest has been very tolerable. Snow yes (finally--it's been a while since we had decent snowfall). But it's supposed to warm up and melt some of it. I wouldn't call it global warming but in I'm old enough to know that weather is way different here than when I was a kid. (What ever happened to -30F?) That weather lasts a day or two now. We used to get for 2-3 weeks at a time...
