Morning Cup Of Coffee And Weather

Jimmy was right on this one....

Is it a fever or depression, anger or aggression?
What's the remedy?
We're not talking rocket science
The answer to your question's very plain to see

You need a holiday
Take a holiday
Find a far-off wonderland
Where you might regain command of your life today

Thought I'd seen some national news reports of Florida palms covered in snow earlier this week?

8+ inches here, lots of blowing and drifting. I am REALLY glad I didn't go to the shiveree :) But frankly, I could sleep in the camper in the garage and see about as much as I would if I were there. Single-digit temperatures are not fun to be in, even with a ripping campfire, so I'd probably find myself 'inside'

I'm envious of people in warmer climates right now.

As far as snow here in Indiana, our local officials are telling us to stay home for optional activities. I thnk that is a good idea. This probably is the same for everyone east of the Mississippi, probably further west - my friends in Texas are talling me that they have inches of ice on the ground. Hopefully, they don't have another event as they did a few years ago.

Sleet overnight & freezing rain today in Upstate SC. Almost to the end of it. Not great, but so far isn’t bad as some of the predictions earlier in the week. Brought my mother over to our house, because we have a generator in case she had power outage. Hoping this will be our one winter weather event for 2026.

Northwestern FL can get some snow on rare occasions.

you sound like my brother who called me to tell me Sarasota will be in the 70s again this week.

Of course, my buddy from Dallas called me asking how we could handle it! 20 degrees was just an inconceivably cold temperature! I was at 8 at the time. He was worried about driving on "4 inches of snow!" Elaborating that they had the snow plows in the metroplex, but they were still wrapped in plastic and the dealer plates hadn't been renewed yet

It looks like the snow is over for the time being, and we should be back in the high 20's by mid-week. I'm ready for it.
 
Thawing pretty quickly here. Luckily the freezing rain for us was not bad. We had mostly sleet. Sunny & 40 so a lot will melt today. Lots of black for a few mornings. I’m old enough to remember when nobody here had snow plows and they didn’t brine the roads, just put sand on bridges and steep hills . Twelve inch snow in late 80s changed that.

I wish I could say that! After today, we've got another 5-7 days of the cold. I suppose this is why I like May so much, without this weather it is much more difficult to appreciate 70 as a daytime high :)
