Hoping you are safely getting home. Its not been good in Indiana today.

Its been snowing, snowing and snowing.

My husband went to work and it was in the single digits. And its going
to be negatives on Monday and Tuesday I guess wow.

Winter is whamming us this month.

Donna, it must be so difficult to get on with regular life when it's that cold.
You keep warm and safe there. I also hope bizi and hubby are ok there driving through all that.

Mari,
It helps to live near water that's for sure and my area is very humid area. It's also summer holidays for schools and universities etc., so many families head to the beach to swim. Lots of swimming pools here too. I don't have a swimming pool where I live now, but most super hot days and evenings when we did have one were spent in the water.

The local beaches are just too busy for me for around 8 weeks of summer plus the sand is far too hot on my feet right now. Best place is under a shady tree next to the sand and close to the ocean or in the ocean itself.

Inland Australia isn't as populated as our coastal regions and they tend to stay indoors with airconditioning when it's that hot. They just need to make sure the aircon keeps working really. I couldn't stand it. They're strong people and usually find some fun way of passing the time... like seeing how fast an egg will fry on a shovel in the sun.

Anyway enough of me... just wish we could do a little weather sharing so that there weren't such extremes.

Oh boy, let it snow.let it snow, let ie snow.....
Dang sub freezing temps in the single digits, the wind chill below zero and of course, snow storm after snow storm. Now they even have names!

Its the same as here.

We are in the singles and headed to the negatives over the next week.

Have fun on the last leg of the journey, Bizi.

I spoke to my little brother in New England this morning.
They got some snow and will get more later -- but much less than they were expecting.

It's 17 degrees in the Mid-Atlantic right now. It's much colder up North. BF

This is so funny. I use to work in a supermarket as you all know. People sort of panic,and have that mob type shopping crowd,type of thing,when they hear that they may have(((Endless Snow,and single digit temperatures))). That kind of weather is"no fun" for a supermarket staff either. BF
