Well, beat the 37 with a 34 , so climo wins again. Hardly ever fails that the weekend of the Master's is cold, or coldish at least one night.

My new station says I had a 37, so not bad for winters last gasp. The point forecast put the next shot at a 42 low, and I don't count it if it ain't in the 30's, lol. Bye winter..had two slight snows and a slighter sleet, so not too shabby compared to the last bunch of winters, but still pretty pitiful. I'd like to see Rory get his slam, though all three in tandem is what a real slam is, but it's hard enough to get all three in a lifetime

Had a tornado touch down a mile down the road Mon and just found out about it today. I sleep real good, lol. Sounds like it was an f0 or f1, but I haven't gone down to look. Certainly not like the one that went thru a few years ago. That was so loud no one around here could hear the siren a quarter mile away in daytime, and that would have woke me up for sure. It went by a mile south, and I lost trees. This one was a mile west, and apparently blocked roads with downed trees but not here. I didn't hear a thing. Still way to close. I'm ready for winter! Looks like a cool to coldish night for Masters weekend. Right on schedule, but not freezing here. Point forecast calling for 39. Still not bad for what's usually winters last gasp around here. Goofy says there is another chance at coldish, but it's usually over this weekend.

My point cast has always been in the upper 80's, 88 being the highest. Now it's 86, and the difference between 88, or 90, and 86, is vast when you are out in it, in full sun. Not near so apocalyptic this early in the year.

Yeah, this just ain't right!! Below normal cold is ok, but record heat...no, just no, lol. And if only one verifies, you know which one that will be....

I just enjoy the anomaly factor. Unusual is interesting, and unusual cold even more so. I can see flurries in the wind in Ga during the Masters. Wouldn't be the first time. I'm starting into a book on the Little Ice Age, the minimum...this won't be that, but it's a small taste, lol.

I should think plants might want to wear sweaters in case of incoming frost, lol.

Figures it'd be near 90 the weekend before a cold snap. That's a Ga. spring for you. I bought a kite recently, might be able to do a moon landing with the weather whiplash, lol. Near 90 and tstorms...that means wind.

I like the odds. Seen lots wearing sweaters on Master's weekend, so climo says maybe flurries, lol.

Yeah, it's a shame as it was so clear earlier. I've seen a blood moon on a super clear night and it doesn't get old. At least they aren't as rare as a total solar.

The haze detracted from the clarity of the blood moon right up until about 20 minutes before totality, then the clouds fully obscured. How do clouds know right when to thicken, and ruin the whole show?? Kind of like snatching defeat from a "heavy snow" warning, lol.

I've been getting ticks on me for weeks, and a few mosquitos on the warmest days, but no wasps etc.

It will be cold enough this week and it will be wet enough this week. All it ever takes is timing....and a long list of unlikely scenarios and happenstances, lol.

Circumstance changes too. Once I was no longer successful in chasing bikini babes, 75 was warm enough, and now I'm on blood thinner, 25 is low enough. I still enjoy winter extremes as long as I can get propane, and they don't last too long in the teens, or below, but 75 is my tops the rest of the year. The only summer extreme I enjoy is 75 in July/Aug. California would be ok, if the cold nights were cold days at least half the time. The way they have it now would make me irritable year round, lol. 25 to 75 and ip/sn once a month would be great, but I don't think that place exists on this planet. Once every few years an f 0 sleetnado or a cat 1 snowacane would be great.

18.8 here. exp sta had 18.5
