Saw that just a minute ago on my puter. Meanwhile, I'll watch the Super bowl game on my patio. Mid seventies here in Henderson, NV.

You're not bragging are you Ray?

Blame La Nina and global climate change.

No, just observing. I spent 48 miserable winters in Michigan, so I'm just happy my old age allows me to avoid any more. Jesus, I hate cold. The last 38 here in Vegas have been a delight. We even got snow once.

Somebody in the Bahamas asked me,what is it like to have cold weather 60s,so I have to ask you,what is it like to have snow?

When you watch the videos of these freeway pile ups,everybody is driving fast in conditions that scream out - slow down.

Minnesota has tons of freeway cameras,the last snowstorm they recorded 325 freeway accidents in less then 24 hours.

No different down here in the summer during the rainy season,the first 5 minutes of rain pulls the oils out of the asphalt and it is just as bad as black ice.
