Bummer. At least it's winter. I hope the timing is good, and there are no
delivery problems. Good luck.

Wife is saying it is chilly again. Dropped from 60's to the 50's. But
supposed to be 70's by Thursday.

Yeah, it sux here in northern California don't it? We took our boat up
to Bass Lake last weekend for some trout fishing, but shoulda called and
asked if there was any water in the lake. Didn't matter anyway, it
rained like hell all weekend. We had some family that rented a place up
there for a week (hence the trip), so it wasn't a total wash... pardon
the pun g.

By the time that storm hits us along the coast tomorrow, we'll get
some snow
but then it's expected to turn to rain. Fairly high winds expected.

Behold, the iceman cometh.

Started off as rain last night and this morning,t hen turned to
sleet/
rain/ice/ mix, then ice, then more ice, then wind and snow. didn't
get
much ground coverage, but the ground is convered with ice mush, and
the hwy. dept can't keep up. the plows just shave off a layer, and
thats about it. Pretty slick out in the streets.



So far, we've had some light rain which has frozen on the ground. The
feds sent home their employees at 2 PM today so they could avoid icy
roads.

We're supposed to have "frain"* through tomorrow afternoon.

Yes! And the UP was a thumb.

You mean like Ypsalanti or Houghton/Hancock? Trout Creek? Ishpeming?
Escanaba?

I can't remember any more of those from my "yute"... :)

Yeah, I'm heading for Florida this weekend. 70s-80s.

Glad to see that someone is taking control of his environment instead of
sitting around bitchin about the weather.

There's little better in February than visiting south Florida. Unless
you can get to where it is warmer! :}

West side of Puerto Rico. No glitz, no nothing. Just beach. Temps between 82
and 90, nice breeze. Do a google search on a town called Rincon. It's a
quiet little haven for American surfers.
