I am blaming Canada

We have snow on the ground in southern Indiana. In November. Not normal. The weather chanel said the cold was blowing in from the north. You Canadians can have it back any time now.

If you had to send something cold, it could have been beer, eh.

We have 1 1/2 inches of snow here in west central Ohio and more on the way. I blame Michigan. Bastages should have put up more of a fight to keep it north of here. Ohio State will make them atone.

I blame Russia

Air from Siberia — yes, Siberia — is heading toward a huge chunk of the United States and it could set record-low temperatures from Texas to New England.

Maybe the Russkies are assisting the Canadians. A global conspiracy. Suposed to be 11° F here tomorrow night and that will be a big time record.

But... If you could just can the stuff. Put it in the fridge maybe, and bring it out during the summer time you will be thanking those guys from up north.

I tell people this. In cold weather, you can put on more clothes. When it is hot, there is only so much clothes you can take off.

I can't relate. The forecast here for this coming week are highs of 75, give or take a couple of degrees. It does cool down at night though - maybe to 50. However this isn't exactly typical.

Truth is, this aint normal. At least its a long way from average around here. We are 9° below normal for November before today and this week will drop that down. But I will do as always and deal with it. I have never let the weather stop me before and I am not starting now. It is fun to to blame Canada though.
