Guys, I do a post of this sort almost every year just smarting off, I also send out photos to friends when I see what they are going through. My wife just showed me photos of Niagara Falls frozen for the first time in recorded history.
My wife is from NY City but been out west sense 1970 but we still have friends and family all over the east coast. As my wife says, snow, well it is winter but when the temps get that low too many bad things can happen.
Spoke to my daughter in MI and she said they didn't get much snow out of this storm but they do have the wood burner glowing cherry red!!
CK, did your son mention the flip side of Vegas?? We have a huge population of east coasters here in my community and they love it here but some people really can't take the heat. It's a dry heat but so is fire!!! I love it but it isn't for everyone.
I was going to go to the pool yesterday but didn't make it, I use the indoor pool that is kept at 98 degrees then go to the outdoor pool and dry off in the sun. I'm good with that at around 80 but we have had a bit of a cool down that's going to be with us for a few days. Like 68 but I don't do the sun dry thing below 80.
Stay warm!!!
