you got it Richard!!!
And to think my wife whined about the one winter she spent in Alberta!
At least back there it usually stayed winter until it was time for spring.
We just started to get the winds ... right in time ... 3Pm ... for once the weather guys were close. Gusting to 50 mph right now ... and 95% of the snow is gone, the ditch's flooded and covering my drive ... guess I'd better check to see where I stored my skates - LOL

haven't heard this week since my source - my mother - is in the hospital recovering from a back operation .... but ... low temps are expected in the winter ... which it still is ... and, her, it's a DRY COLD .... hahahahahah

And I guess I should have not been joking about putting on skates, everything here froze pretty good so black ice everywhere. I went down twice last night (I always walk to the barn and back ... about 1/4 mile) and the second time it was a not-nice experience ... landed on my tailbone with pretty good force and I'm sure limping and flinching today!

Wingnut:

I also like that statement " It's a dry cold "
Hard to keep from laughing when I used to hear it.

With the weird weather patterns, Arizona might wind up being colder than us. Last I heard, they were talking El Nino again. If I recall correctly, in the last one we had a pretty mild winter, but you guys South of us got slammed.
