75º and sunny in October. Not enough. It's 85º and sunny right now. I was sweating outside earlier. We've got a cold front coming through so it should be 75º on Tue!

I'm not sure that's what you meant.

How often in late Oct would you expect this?

We hit 90 today!

I had to fly a project to far south OK and into Baja, Ok along the red river. It was pleasant at 6,500 feet, warm at 3,000 ft at the project flight altitude, but windy as heck. 40 knot wind at a 40 degree angle to our flight lines.

When we came in to land it was like someone turned on the heater. And 100 low lead aviation fuel is $5.59 per gallon. 40 gallons, ouch!

I remember a Columbus Day weekend canoe trip in the Adirondacks (Northern NY) where it was 75F (1989?). I also remember flurries when we're paddling outbound. This was a canoe trip with the first Mrs. Beard.

I also remember having to do oral surgery. She had a wisdom tooth out and a piece of it was left behind. I had to remove the fragment with some pliers, probably my original Leatherman. She was a lot easier to get along with after that.

Never heard of them..... though I don't actually live in G'boro proper (it used to be my mailing addy) they are located near a music venue I've been to several times since it moved. The old location.... literally hundreds of times .

I know where to go for VDO repairs now too

They sound awesome...

We got 8" of snow yesterday, which is like a week+ earlier then usual. We were a bit warmer then usual last week, but it's just mother nature.

Our average high for this day in MI is 55 degrees.
Today is 20 degrees over that.

Climate change is great!

My sister lives in the west end of NC
Her high temp the last two days has been 15-20 degrees less than here.

I'm sure that will reverse soon.
