i'd have to say it was in the low 50s high 40s last night this morning. It's warm during the day no matter what here in Florida. I'm most amazed at how Sebring Raceway during the week of the 12 Hour race is like 80/90 during the day and downright freezing at night. I'll def take it there with me as it really is the only jacket I own besides my Honda issued jacket for work.

Going to be 26F here in weird Tallahassee FL tonight. Amazing how often we are colder than New York City at night in any given year.

I had a high school football playoff game up in Panama city on a Thanksgiving weekend. It was 22degrees with 30mph winds. Coldest I've ever been in Florida. I can't believe how cold it gets up in the panhandle.

I'd give my left nut for 50° right now. It's snowing and below freezing...and that was a noon time when I went for lunch.

All this talk about cold weather makes me nervous; hasn't anyone heard of global warming?

Don't the "experts" say that global warming causes extreme heat in the summer and extreme cold in the winter? I just think it's Earth's cycle, I mean the "experts" say when dinosaurs roamed that the average earth temp was around 130F. Nope global warming is the cause for everything, it's why people get skin cancer...didn't you hear about that?

saw someone walking in the snow on campus today with an umbrella... had to ask, turned out they were from the south and pretty much figured that you use an umbrella if anything is falling from the sky.

we have been having fun torturing my physics prof who is from Granada (those antennas on top of the fire hydrants arent for a wireless network.. they are so they can find them in the snow.. BUT THOSE ARE 5 FEET TALL! EXACTLY!!!)

I'm a wuss, I saw it was going to be 25 tonight and decided I was driving to work today. Hey I pay for tag and insurance on 2 cars that I barely ever drive I'm allowed to. Maybe I can talk santa into giving me one of those jackets.

LOL: My nephew told me that his daughter called today and wants to transfer to some other college. Guess they forgot to tell her about the weather in Frostburg. The name should have told her something.
