Y'all are a hoot!

cececoogan: I totally agree, the smilies add fun to a sometimes not so happy world!

Nedhudson1: LOL. I'm in Daytona Beach. Titusville is about 40 minutes south of us and it actually is a little warmer down there than here in winter! Sometimes we Southerners are wimps when it comes to temp's below 50! I don't like it getting below @45 myself. My sister in Fort Lauderdale complains that it's cold if it is in the 60's! I laugh so hard when she calls and seriously says it's cold down there and I will say what's the temperature and she says @ 64 degrees! She and her husband are thinking of retiring in another year or so and moving up to this part of the state ... some might not think that's really far but it is a big difference in climate. They will be wanting to buy heavy wool coats and boots and gloves ... and don't laugh because I see folks dressed like that all the time here in winter! My family has been in Florida for 41 years so we don't really know what REAL cold is like, LOL.

I was in Jacksonville Beach FL one Christmas. Yupper I saw earmuffs and mitts. of course I was in my bikini at the time.

LOL Dahlianut! A Bikini in late December? In Jacksonville Beach?%$#@ Now, it is waaay too cold the end of December for a bathing suit in this part of Florida and Jax Bch is about 1 1/2 hours north of me! Did you freeze your bottom off? Did you go in the water? We do see the Snowbirds here in winter enjoying the very cold ocean! Not me ... the swimming pool water has to be in the mid 80's for me to even stick my toes in ... I ain't about to go in the ocean when it's probably 50-60 degrees! ^_^

The weather channel said that it'll be hitting 30 degrees this Wednesday.

Noper didn't even stick my toe in but did saunter around in the suit for awhile on particularly balmy days.

plantladylin, My daughter-in-law's mother lives in Winterhaven, FL.

She has been trying to talk me into moving there for years now. Reason being.............
Where I move, my son usually follows. So her daughter would follow too.

I'm planning on moving north....................LOL ^_^

She will only come and visit us in the summer.

Can Dave give us a devils face? Seems to suit me better at times ^_^

And I scarped frost from my car windows last week

No frost here in Jax. Maybe next Jan or Feb., if we are unlucky.

We just had solid little balls of rain fall here.

We get some nonkilling frosts every year. If I recall correctly, they're always some time after Christmas. On the other hand, some rain would be nice, but it might be a month or two before we get any of that, either.

There has been frost on the pumpkin for a couple of weeks now. This afternoon we even had that 4 letter word starting with "s". Brrrrrrr! or should that be Grrrrrrrr!

One night about two weeks ago it suddenly turned very cold -- I think it got down to 20 degrees and there was a frosting of snow in the morning to boot. But it has warmed up considerably since then and most of the below freezing nights have just hovered around 31 or 32 degrees. Later this week I think it is predicted to start chilling down again but it has been lovely and in the 70s, days lately.

First frost scheduled for tonight. Been in high 30's a few times here but tonight below freezing in forecast.

Y'know Dahlianut - I've so often heard my mom tell me that Floridians apologize for the cold weather (she's from Winnipeg) and she just laughs. It would be shirtsleeve weather in Winnipeg, when Floridians are wearing parkas LOL

Guess you can always tell who the snowbirds are, in the deep south - they're the ones Shedding clothes, while the natives are Puttin' Em ON lol

-Susan-

First frost was a little over a week ago.

Steve,

Your weather is exactly like ours. Low 30's several night but today's the first frost. But you're in Texas and I'm in the snowbelt. What gives?

Donna

Ours too - 28 last Monday in ABQ. : (

Uh oh ... I think I've spent too much time on this thread talking about frost and low temp's. We are going down to 45 tonight and 42 tomorrow night! Really weird for this time of year in this part of Florida. I will enjoy it for sure! And Wednesday's high is only going to be in the 60's ... shoulda waited until then to mow the lawn and do the yard work!

I dunno Donna it must be the jet stream! LOL. It is supposed to warm up during the day though to 70's - how about you??

Christmas of '67,I was swimming on a very nice beach in Nha Trang,Viet Nam.
