TheWahoo Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I'm looking out the window and see blowing snow with high temperatures below freezing. I just got an e-mail from a local private club stating that if I join today, I can enjoy not paying dues until April. Perhaps, I should send them a thank you note.

Shankster Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 So, I'm hearing you say that this is a mild winter. So far. Looks like 2 days above freezing then right back to it. My wife and I just keep asking WHY?! Too dang cold to enjoy anything outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny B Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 From the forecast it looks like today is our last day for the next 10 days below freezing. It was 31* this am, but is warming up to 37* today. The next 10 days are supposed to be in the 40's with lows at night above freezing. Dare I think spring is on the way?? “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWahoo Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I've heard it said that if you've never cried you don't really know how good if feels to laugh, if you've never been sad you really don't know how good it feels to be happy. In that context, when we return to our typical winter highs in the high 30s and low 40s, just think how good they are going to feel now. And if by chance we should get some of those occasional days in the 50s, just think how enjoyable that round is going to be now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am so looking forward to Sunday, when we're supposed to hit mid 20's. And if the weatherman is correct we may have a day or two of 30's next week.

tommc23 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 It's funny how I just read an article about how Alaska is complaining about it being too warm with it just being in the 20s. Heck it's colder here in PA than Alaska for the past 3 weeks which is kind of sad. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlaidJacket Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Our recent 3 days of cold winter weather has passed for now. So today I'm getting all bundled up by wearing a mock tee, long pants and a pull-over to go out and endure a sunny 63* round. Tomorrow more of the same except I might not wear the pull-over. 68* for a high and sunny again. Damn winter!!!
