Balmy = mild (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

I believe the cold is actually coming from Alaska. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

It was close to 90 degrees in SoCal yesterday, and forecast to be 88 degrees today. So yes, thank you for the balmy weather (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol3.gif)

I'm scheduled to be in Minnetonka in either late March or early April. As punishment for living in sunny southern Cali, I'm called back to corporate HQ each winter. I think they really enjoy watching me shiver...

No it wouldn't be, she would have to move back as a permanent resident, then it would be fully covered.

You know it's cold out when it squeaks. It's warm when the snow just smushes without any noise. It's chilly when it crunches. When it squeaks you better cover up yours ears. Otherwise, you might snap one off.

I don't think I ever went sking when I couldn't take my shirt off and get a tan. And this snapping off of body parts has convinced me I did the right thing. Geeze (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

It was -40 in International Falls this morning it would be even colder in the low lying areas, add wind chill it gets dangerous. One more night in the below 20's and then we will see a slight warm up. anything above 0 now will feel great!

Here in middle florida it dipped into the upper 50s today. I had to put on long
pants and shoes, and even then it was bitter cold!!! I actually stopped sweating
for a few minutes today, unheard of!!!
