Tomorrow will be sunny but there will be no riding. Overnight low is low twenties. High tomorrow is supposed to be low Forties but feeling much colder because of the wind. Warnings are posted for hypothermia and frost bite. The ice on the back porch did not melt all day today. And did I mention I live in Florida  |

No ice here. But the Snowbirds sure are bitching and moaning about the cold.

Where do your snowbirds migrate from? |

We have snowbirds too, but they are too cold to complain. |

Where do your snowbirds migrate from? mostly Midwest and Canada. Some Northwest. |

You cudda sent it North where it belongs instead of East into the SUNSHINE state. Sunshine is of little value with freezing temps |

Currently 9* here, not sure about wind chill but, I am handling it. Fire place is lit, Lazy Boy is waiting, the big screen is on, I'm ready. Bring it. Ain't no way I'm going back out there short of a house fire and maybe not even then.  |

Got about 2" today (first snow). What I like is when it's good and cold and the snow stays fluffy, I can clean all walks, drive, deck, cars, yada with my Stihl blower and never touch a shovel. Much easier on the old back. And no need to fire up the snow chucker. Death to shovels.  |

43 degrees at daybreak wind chill feel like 20 according to weather reports. That's rough when it was low 80's and 70-80% humidity a few days ago. But don't fret mid 70's after Monday.  |

Was 36* at 8:00am on the way to church this morning, wasn't much warmer by 10:30 when I went to the nursing home to spend some time with my wife. Strong wind to go with the temps so broke out the leather riding jacket....felt good, was glad I had it on.

There are a number of us snow birds in Florida in the 40ºF cold this AM, but, since its still far better than the weather back home we are happy and not about to complain.
We went to the flea market and then had a great meal at the Cajun Cafe. No one had any flea's for sale though. I often wonder though how many are given away.
