Not being very cold is a plus. It just needed to be cold enough for all that snow. :-)
It sure does make a difference in being able to see at night. With no snow, it’s DARK. Everything’s visible on the cams tonight. And it looks so pretty.
Just glad it’s there and not here. LOL!

Sounds like maybe a thermostat?
I am off to get the snow off my car and head to the airport.

When I went to Law School I thought I'd be operating out of a classy corner office overlooking Biscayne Bay with a nice view of my 72 ft. Chris Craft Yacht-fisherman at its slip.
Instead, I'm ensconced in the concourse lever of an office building. "Concourse" is a euphemism for the basement - where you get all the fumes from the parking garage. Sitting in a large room with a couple dozen other lawyers, some of whom are, if you'll excuse the expression, low-down and high smelling. Sitting in front of a pair of 24 inch HD Monitors over which cascade document after document of absolutely mind-numbing triviality.
In the corner of the dimly-lit, stank room a fat guy, naked to the waist, beats on a drum, endlessly, endlessly - 48 beats per minute.
The attorneys who can't keep up with the beat are ruthlessly ripped away from their desks and kicked out onto the street, to beg for their bread with the homeless.
God, how I love the Law!

Usually, I plan on six songs but , judging from the crowd’s reactions and mood, might do a whole different set. So far, I have had several requests, ‘Ripple” by the Grateful Dead, “Say You Love me” by Fleetwood Mac, and “Jerusalem” by Me. (I printed the words to “Jerusalem on FR a few months ago, and a lot of our FReepers liked it a lot)

Good evening, Army Bro!
Perhaps a slight exaggeration - but the fat guy in the corner is real!
