I feel sorry for the people down south who are experiencing what we deal with up north on a regular basis. They’re not prepared for it like we are.
A coworker (we are in CO) was in TN last week during their ice storm. He commented yesterday: it was 10 degrees outside and it was so cold. We got off the plane in Denver, and it was 10 degrees, and it was so warm.
We had 3 days of poor weather, got two days of sun, but the snow is back today pretty much through Sunday.
It got down to the low 30s for a couple days last week. Schools were warning parents to make sure their kids wore long sleeves.
All we have to keep warm are the heat pumps in our AC units. They don’t work below 40.
