There is light at the end of the tunnel. Highs in the 50's next week.

We got a half inch of rain overnight. Still need moisture. Scared to ask this time of year. Too easy for it to turn into an ice storm.
Highs today in the mid 40's. Couldn't wrest myself out of the recliner long enough to go play golf. Instead, put up the outdoor Christmas lights. Moved excess lawn equipment to our storage under the back deck. And... spent 40 minutes on the downstairs bike watching Penn & Teller.

Temps falling all day today. Up this morning and took the dog out on the back deck. 53 degrees, not a breath of wind. It was 4:30 a.m. We teed off at 8:30 a.m. 15 mph cold north wind. Temp 41 with a feels like of 35. Four of us played 18 with the wind continuing and temps dropping. When we finished, it was 33 degrees with a feels like of 25. My cart heater ran out of gas on hole 12.
Actually had a really good day on the course. Played the wind well and was dressed for the cold. Won $1.00 from the old goats!!!
Cold tomorrow. Then a warming trend. 50's by the weekend and 60's next week.

Nice rain overnight. We really need moisture!! Almost 3/4". I've never seen the river by the golf course this low. Looks like nothing but sandbars with small patches of water moving through it.
Thanks goodness, the temp outside right now is 46 degrees. Rain this time of year can certainly turn to ice. Tomorrow, the bottom drops out of temps for the immediate future. Highs in the 30's the next 5 days. Next Monday, they are predicting lows in the single digits.

-26 windchill now. Took the 16 year old granddaughter to work at 7:00 a.m. Lots of ice and some snow on the streets. Slick. Didn't want the daughter having to get out or the 16 year old driving herself to work. Never could get all the ice off my truck windshield.
Later today and into tomorrow morning we are to see windchills into the -40 range. Been a LONG time since we've seen cold like this here. 50's predicted by middle of next week.
Granddaughter's RN pinning yesterday afternoon about 1 1/2 hour east of us. As we returned, black ice was beginning to hit closer to home. We saw a number of spin off's and one really bad crash along I-70. Our local PD had 12 crashes in an hour, so went to the non-reporting protocol if there were no injuries.

2old Was just watching a trooper from your state talking about the weather on TWC. Dang cold by you, to say the least. Be careful out there! We received a few inches of snow this morning and holding at 31ºF. Winds are suppose to kick up later and seeing wind chill factors at -30 below zero until Saturday. They say for our area, this weekend will be the coldest its been in 40 years. Single digits over the weekend with below zero at night. But hey, at least we'll have a white Christmas!

Mild …for South Australian summers we are waiting for our apricots to ripen , normally they are ripe around the 2-3 week of Dec but because we skipped spring and have only had a odd Summers day, the fruit is very slowly ripening .
mild summers day today 28c …about 82 F
We are expecting a few hot days early next week up close to the old 100f so that might give our apricots a hurry up .
We as a team (hubby and I) preserve our harvest by sun drying , preserving and freezing as well as a few pots of apricot jam
