From what I see on the ole TV, yall are having a pretty rough winter. It has been colder than usual down here too, but not like what yall are having. Usually our temperature is in the 50's (11ºC +) during the daytime and mid 30's (2ºC+) at night, but this year our daytime temps are in the mid to low 40's (6ºC) and at night right around 30ºF(-1ºC) and down to 25ºF(-4ºC).
Thankfully this week has been a little warmer and it looks like the trend will continue as next week we are supposed to be in the 50's(11ºC+). I reckon spring is just around the corner, it usually starts down here about the middle of February. Happy Valentines to all the family.
