    We hit 98 in central Va. yesterday. Went to Marty Stuart / Steve Miller concert last night (outdoor venue). They moved the start time 1 hour so by the time everyone arrived the venue was mostly in the shade.. picked a great spot for our chairs and had a breeze all evening..

    Even though temps have been in the 90's all week, I picked up a brand new snow shovel at the Goodwill this week for $5. Gotta get em when you see em.

    It's all relative.......here, around 10% relative. Seriously though, that 108° heat index was only 1 day. Compare that to a 4 day weekend back east.

    Here's the thing: the humidity east of the Rockies moderates temperatures, and limits them to the upper 90s during a heat wave. If all that humidity was to evaporate, it would *BE* 110, 115, 120 in places like NYC, Philly and DC during a heat wave. One way or the other, everyone feels the heat. I personally prefer the way in which my clothes aren't dripping with sweat when I get home.

    Every winter jacket I've purchased since the late '80s has been purchased in the spring, when I got a smokin' deal on them.

    It was 39F yesterday morning. Not as cold this morning. Don't think I've ever seen iguanas around my neighborhood but I do see them often around canals (and roadkill).

    I Denmark there hasn't been one snowflake yet, only rain, hardly a single night with frost.
    It has been a record year. Mud everywhere.

    They showed it on the news last night. Iguanas in Florida freezing stiff and falling out of the trees.

    Right, people think they're dead but once they warm up a little they wake up. It's common down here. When I had mango trees I'd see 'em in my yard. All I see now are cats, possums, ducks, and ibis. And anoly lizards.

    Vic2012, don't you think that a lot of things happen because of astrology things, star movements? For example, on this website ( here: https://www.zodiacsigns-horoscope.co.../gemini-virgo/ ) I have found a lot of evidences how zodiac signs can affect on human bodies and human lives as well. You can read and make some conclusions for yourself, if you're interested in it.

    I heard this might be the first February since recording weather that Baltimore hasn't had any snow.

    About 49 duh-greez down here this morning. I think I like it.

    This coming storm is so BIG it deserves 2 running threads.
    The End Of The World as we know comenses starting Friday night into Saturday. NWS has finally committed to an expected total for Long Island NY of 8 to14 with possible increases . Who knows where it could go , the sky"s the limit.
    Weather people are collapsing on live TV in orgasmic embolisms. Weather ladies spontaniously loose their eggs while weathermen go bald before our eyes.
    Its The End!!

    Stay tuned , we will return after this commercial announcement............

    If my IQ box set doesn't arrive today or tomorrow, this storm is going to hold it up further. Jebus!

    From accuweather:
    FRI 1/28 34° /20°
    Cloudy with a few flurries
    rain drop 49%
    WINTERCAST
    Storm total: 12 - 18 in

    SAT 1/29 21° /10°
    Blizzard, accumulating 4-8"
    rain drop 98%
    WINTERCAST
    Storm total: 12 - 18 in
    Meteorology math: flurries + [4 - 8] = [12 - 18]

    Maybe my arithmetic is off, but that looks like a minimum of 8 inches of flurries.

    The French Toast Alert Level is 4.

    (what it probably means is that the amount of snow to expect under "Blizzard" conditions is 4" to 8", but it looks weird)

    NWS just upped the Long Island totals, 10-16 inches.
    AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !
