Darn weather... (rant)

Same crap here.

84 degrees now and there is a Freeze warning for Friday morning.

Gotta go cover the plants soon

All GWB's fault

Same crap here, I actually broke a sweat today doing nothing.

Summer is also officially here, we had to close our windows (which have been open for the last 4-5 weeks) and turn the A/C back on.

Driving in the Targa is warm but not too hot yet. I am unsure if its heading to NC for the summer this year.

I also had to throttle down the solar panels on the pool it hit 90° yesterday, nice for swimming at night but not too refreashing during the day.

[911 in SC]

I've spent some time in several eastern (Rochester, NY) and mid-west cities (Cedar Rapids, IA and Rogers, AR) over the past year. I can honestly say I love living in the upstate of South Carolina. Yes, we do have humidity, but it doesn't get that cold during the winter (one snow fall for one day) and it doesn't get that hot in the summer. I'm about an hour away from the mountains, and about 4 hours away from the coast. Of course, another benefit unrelated to weather is that the cost of living is much lower here than most areas of the country too.

That said, it is supposed to drop from 72 right now (7:27pm, EST) to possibly 32 degrees on Thursday evening/Friday morning. I suppose this will be the last freeze of the season for us.

My hat's off to you guys in the north east! In the plant I was in back in July, I saw 116 degrees on a thermometer inside, and I saw the same thermometer 'show' 45 degrees in January. ARGH! Thank goodness for air conditioning and heat!

My younger daughter was outside yesterday playing in the lawn sprinkler.

I have not driven with the top off the Targa for a while with all the Pine Pollen.
I'm going to need a snow shovel if it doesn't stop soon.

Another problem started by GWB

I took the snow tires of my slk last week. I had to change the rotors and I figured it was not going to snow again. Man, was I wrong. It was a white out on the expressway yesterday. My summer tires need to be changed. They do not have much tread on them. Driving in this morning was a slow and stressful process.
I am getting new tires this week or early next week. I have been working late everyday! Past the tires store closing time.

Same here, had the car up on stands and I figured we were done with snow. Took my studded winter tires off, put on my summers.

My wife says that's why it's snowing... all my fault.
