OT: Cold snap

[triaddukefan]

18 degrees currently, wind chill around zero in north central NC. High tomorrow of 36 degrees. I enjoy winter, I don't mind cold temperatures within reason. Forecast for 3 inches of snow on Friday night... first measurable snow since Dec 2018. Had to head to the grocery store to stock up on tuna fish, chocolate cake, frozen pizza, and doritos

Warm in Connecticut by January standards. Most places in the 20s this morning.

Historically speaking, this has been a moderate winter in Connecticut so far. That being said we still have to get through January, February and early March. The Jan-Feb-Mar temp forecast is for above average temperatures with a 50% probability.

South Florida - only going up to 67° today. Currently 51° before sunrise. It's expected to hit the low 80s on Saturday, though.

After 40+ winters in CT, I'll take this.

Three (3) degrees this morning here in Indiana, I'm 30 miles north of Indy.

Got the wood stove going rather nicely.

30 miles north of Indy, is it Kokomo? I was born in Lafayette, about 63 miles NW of Indy.

But how many home basketball games can you attend at Gampel, XL Center, or the non-neutral court at the Mohegan Sun?

True, just one or two. And I went to the BET a couple of years ago.

I had season tix for the first 8 or 10 years I lived down here always thinking that somehow, some way I would get sucked back to Connecticut. I didn't want to lose my seats so my brother used my tickets. Anyway, I never moved back and have no plans to.

I still have cable, the Fox Sports app and now Peacock so I don't miss any games. The cable bill is high, but it's cheaper than airfare.

And the South Florida Alumni Network has watch parties in Ft. Lauderdale but I haven't been able to attend one yet.

Another chilly one in central Florida. Today's high will be aound 56. Temps tomorrow in the mid to upper 60's. Saturday highs in the mid 60's with rain.

And Saturday is another band gig/ dance. We'll start around 7:15 and end around 9:15. Scheduled to have another packed house.
