Heatwave moving in! Started today at -6F, is going to top out at 24F. By Sunday, we are supposed to be 39. Some of the 1" layer of ice in the driveway may even melt. It's a good thing Rick is way south of you guys. He has just 30 days left on the hard. I wonder if he has to pay extra to get the travel lift out of the snow bank. Let's keep or fingers crossed for him! 8-) er

Can't complain here. Just went through a cold spell, single digit temps. Now we are in a warm up. Could see 58* next Thursday if the predicted high is achieved. Spring is coming.

It is strange how there actually are areas that are warmer or colder compared to other locations all around them. Just weather phenomenon I guess. Either that or holes in the atmosphere allowing excessive amounts of gamma rays in. Rick, are there a lot of people using aerosol spray cans in your area? Keep us posted on that launch date. Lots of readers depending on you for psychological relief! Actually, maybe just me. :-D 8-) er
