According to my trusty weather app, it is currently 5°F (-15°C) outside where I live (about 50 miles north of Atlanta's airport) but because the wind is blowiing at a speed of 12 mph (not too bad, really) it feels like -11°F (somewhere in Antarctica C) out there. We will have a heat wave today and the high is expected to be 24°F (-4.4°C).
The warmest place in the US yesterday was 84°F (28.8° C) in Boca Raton, Florida, where we lived for seven years when I was with IBM.
I'm beginning to wonder for the first time ever if we made the right decision when we decided to move.
Global warmng is the pits. Global warming is for the birds.
Penguins.
P.S.- It just came to my attention that yesterday, December 23rd, was Festivus (look it up if you weren't a Seinfeld fan) and my previous post easily qualifies as "airing of grievances."

Our actual high temperature today is above zero. Woo-hoo.
ReplyDeleteEmma, now almost a week later we are having daily highs in the 60s. Mrs. RWP calls all these ups and down "pneumonia weather".
DeleteBob, get a grip Global warming is passe. We now have Climate Change to justify us being ripped off. It's all bollocks but expensive bollocks. follow the money and not the science.
ReplyDeleteAdrian, there has always been Climate Change, but the changes used to be called Seasons. Our Christmas Eve and Christmas Day here in Atlanta were the coldest days locally in more than a decade.
