CBS Los Angeles, reports that a cooler airmass and light winds will stick around into New Year’s Eve.

On Sunday, temperatures throughout the Southland ranged between 20s and 30s to 40s by 8 a.m., with the day’s highs into the 60s. Freeze warnings and frost advisories were issued for parts of Southern California but were expected to expire.

Come Tuesday, hundreds of thousands of revelers were expected to line the streets of Pasadena for the Rose Parade.

Despite the cold, bonfires are not permitted along the parade route, and small, professionally manufactured barbecues are permitted so long as they are elevated at least 1 foot off the ground and positioned 25 feet from buildings and other combustibles.

Well, for New Year’s Day, my locale expects to see plenty of snow on the ground (from an overnight snowfall) and it will be in the 20’s and 30’s (my courtesy to ones who use Fahrenheit as opposed to Celsius). Looks like it is shaping up for a decent morning snowshoe up in the Gatineau Hills.

Wait! . . . On Sunday (right now it is Sunday at 8:38am) “temperatures ranged.” What??? Is this what exegetes call the “prophetic perfect tense?”

I would like to see the Rose Parade in person sometime. If it’s in the 40’s and sunny, seems like that would be tolerable. I mean, what do they think people at FB stadiums do to survive?

Used to live right off Colorado Blvd. People would be out there all night. Weirdest sound at midnight, tens of thousands of people cheering along a line (as opposed to in a stadium). Sounds quite different.

Suggestion: be sure to sit on the south side of Colorado Blvd. Most floats are designed to be orientated in that direction.

Also, be as close to the parade start as possible. A few miles down the route and the entertainers look pooped.

As far as I’m concerned, football in the winter should require sub freezing temps and lots of snow........and open fields, not indoors under domes.
