I've got the furnace turned up now!

Actually kind of cloudy out. We're supposed to get some rain. Luckily last night was awesome. Bet the kids had a great Trick or Treating at the Fort!
Mid 20s the last few nights and highs in the mid 40s since last Friday, but no precipitation. We are supposed to be warming up the rest of the week with mid 60s by Saturday.
hope that holds for a week, we head thru St. Louis next Friday, taking the Rt 66 way to NM to visit DS and Family, then up through Vegas for the F1 race 11-19, then SLC for thanksgiving with DD back in port 12-2

You know what's weird, living here I forget what it's like up north. I mean my brain says November, but I walk outside and it's 78° and the fact it should be cold just doesn't compute any longer. My wife and I are definitely not "we like the seasons" kind of people. Even mid January when our part of Florida participates in winter for two weeks is not my thing. We're lucky we're on the frost line here in central Florida. They actually get cold weather (for us) in the northern part of the state.
Ok, we've got another two and a half months till our two weeks of winter. My snow plow is ready! View attachment 806886
{Yes, I know you all have seen it before but hey, I still think it's funny! If anybody else laughs it's a bonus!)
In February of 1977 I was stationed at EGLIN AFB outside of Ft. Walton Beach in the Panhandle . We got 3/4 of an inch one day. Everything came to a standstill.
Father winter stopped by the last two nights. Low of 29 yesterday and a low of 25 today. Heat set in the RV to 52 and just let it do its thing. We camp one more weekend then winterize so no biggie.
Snow wise, we shall see. My primary is the snow mower (lawn tractor long retired from mowing though used as the yard tractor and snow mover.) If its bad enough call someone or the neighbor who has a Kobota bx22 and loader.
Oh it did. Saturday was a 72, got LOTS of yard work done. Sunday was just as nice and finished by mowing up all the leaf fall and going for a bike ride. Temps stay nice till Friday then drop back to closer to seasonal.
I never heard Bing Crosby sing "White Thanksgiving", but here we are. The whole state of Kansas pretty much got covered in 2+” of snow yesterday. We cut our plans short from my in laws (they got 7") and left ahead of the storm.
We have around 4". It's going to stay in the 20s today with a pretty gnarly wind chill. At least it's sunny to clear the roads.
Thankfully I have an 11 year old that thinks this is fun. I just have to start it the first time and help him get it out of the shed.
60 degrees and Sunny on the NC coast on Thanksgiving day. We're having 50s all week and cool temps at night. I'm shutting down the irrigation system for the winter today. I had intended to do that already. I don't have a choice this time. Freezing temps are coming tomorrow.
Here in NW Vermont, tomorrow is rain, 1/2" -3" and 50, but Sunday night into Monday morning we have a winter storm warning. Heavy wet snow, 4-10" with wind gust to 35mph with a low of 34.
Couple of inches of snow last night when it was supposed to be rain and maybe a dusting. Supposed to get the "real" snow on Tuesday. I'm guessing that will be the dusting.
As predicted on Saturday, the "big" snow we were supposed to get last night and into today didn't happen... at least not for us. The storm shifted west. We did have a light dusting last evening, but it started raining about 2am and all is gone.
Here is the current view:
I see on my Ring cameras, we got about 4 inches so far, doesn't bother me a bit here in Margaritaville, although we are under a tornado watch right now
