Dewpoint is 61F.








Some of these trees are forming leaves.

A question, do your 29C in winter feels the same as 29C here in deep tropics?

Ha. Thanks for the pics. I tried to get my body to feel 80s looking at those. Felt weird.


Now I'll share my pics with you...






So much fun. I love these Potpourri days.





No idea whats better. Shoveling snow with sleet and ice on top or shoveling snow then shoveling sleet separately and freezing rain fall.





Look at the top of the pile. Beautiful brown slush color. lol

And I dont know what freezing and snow feel, this seasonality,things changing, never experienced that since my boring climate is the same year round with no temperature below 68F.

Probably not, was fairly humid for a winter 83 degree though with dews between 56-58 which was good enough to generate a heat index. Storms moving into area in a bit, looks summery.

Not sure, I've never been to the deep tropics. 85F (29C) is the warmest I can recall experiencing during winter.

And I never been to temperate areas,14C is the lowest I felt on high elevations areas of here.
Sometimes I have a impression that my heat is "warmer" than yours at same temperature,not sure why through.

Today was my warmest winter day ever, beats 2 81 degree days late Feb 2011.

Mid 80s in February, yet some people wanna argue the South is a "flawed" subtropical climate because of the cold snaps it gets.
