What's the deal with this weather?!
I could have sworn that it was January today  . BTW our normal hi/lo for this time of year is 58/38! The average for January is 47/30! It only got up to 46 today and is already 28 at 11 pm  .

I actually really like the winter and cold weather too. Not that I don't love summer as well, but I just feel better and more energetic and alive in the winter.

I like winters about 55/35. Colder than that makes me sad  .

Global warming. Oh wait...
It's 17 degrees outside right now in Murfreesboro and that's just not right! I'm a Southern girl and me and cold don't mix! We'll be in Gatlinburg nxt week for Thanksgiving and I sure hope it warms up a bit by then.

I doubt very seriously if it is 17 degrees. You probably misread 27 degrees, which is the temp here in Knoxville. And sorry, but one cold spell does not negate an overall global warming trend. Remember statistics class?

Sorry to disappoint, but I learned the difference bewteen a 2 and a 1 many, many years ago. Hubby and I read the temp on 2 different gauges and there was a 2 degree variance between them. At 10PM last night, it was 17-19 degrees depending on which gauge we looked at. Right now at just at 7AM, it reading 22. Gee, maybe that first number is *really* a 7 and I should turn the air on?
Guess if I'm too stupid to read a gauge, I'm too stupid to form my own opinion on global warming, though.  But thanks for taking my tongue in cheek comment so seriously!
