West Palm Beach is colder than Northern Maine today. ::)
I'm liking it and betting that it doesn't happen very often. :P
Looks like it will get down to 26 degrees tonight.
I hope it snows. ;D

I wish all of you Canadians would keep your cold air up there where it belongs.  We are trying to keep kids' hogs from freezing and around 3:30 a.m. tomorrow I have to head to school to set the citrus grove irrigation to continue icing the trees.   If the next two nights are as cold as the news crews predict, strawberries and citrus will cost a fortune this winter.  Look for sink holes to form around Plant City  in the next week due to over pumping from the aquifer to  attempt to save their berry plants.

Those darn Canadians, how dare they! :D Maybe you can send that fruit up frozen like the rest of the US does. ;)

Pre-commercial thinning pays off. :)

I am sure there will be plenty of citrus that will freeze tonight and tomorrow.  The governor has declared a state of emergency, which means that the truckers hauling fruit do not have weight limits for the next few days.  They will try to process the fruit for juice.
You folks that deal with the cold on a regular basis are definitely tough.  The cold seems to make simple tasks much more difficult.

It all depends on where you call home. Some love all the seasons, some don't. We here lots of blat'n about the weather up here to. Me, I hate mowing and heat above 65 F when I have to work in it. I always liked to cut wood in the winter, I was never cold unless I had poor foot wear. Steam rolls off me like a horse.  ;D :D Hmm steamed eye glasses, I hate that part. ;)
