    well I can tell you in my 15 yrs here or so , this is the coldest I remember it being for the longest time. It's been this cold but usually we get a day or so.

    Heck I froze yesterday afternoon on a ride, went out for a quick one around the town
    and brrrrrrrrrrrrr... About 40ish.

    in the 20's overnight to low 30's we've had hard freeze warnings...

    Gotta remember nothing down here is made to take that cold LOL

    But it will be 70 by Friday!

    60* is great.

    The rain isn't.
    I don't like rain, rain, rain.
    I could do without rain for months on months.
    Were going to have several days of rain.
    If its cold you don't go outside.

    If it rains you usually don't go outside.
    I got cabin fever and were not even threw the winter.

    Some people beg for the rain.
    I liked it last summer when we had a drought most of the summer.
    It cut down on the mosquitos.
    I actually enjoyed the drought. Even though a lot of my neighbors still tried to cut their grass all the time.

    I've already got to where I don't care about cuttin my grass.
    I cut it about 5or 6 times a year, wheather it needs it or not.

    Surely there's something better in life than cuttin grass.:rant:
