The Bbzzzz is in town for surgery tomorrow and wanted to fish with me today.  Brrrrrrrrrr.

Ice fishin'? ;D

  No.  I don't like it.  This would be Sauger fishing on the Yellowstone river.  Thebbz is doing good as a horsecock pusher for Albertsons.

           Potter

It was a joke, bud. There ain't no ice fishin' in October in these latitudes.

I've never fished for ice. What do you use for bait?

All y'all can KEEP yer flippin' COLD!!

I am LOVIN' it down here in the Sunshine state!  Yesterday it was over 100 ... Today has cooled down a bit, the cold front has moved in, and it is only in the mid 80's, but the weather channel says it feels like 90 ...

THIS is the weather for me!!!

I should be successfull then. Boat is always loaded with beer.

It IS?? ?? ??

I thought it was too full of Boston Harbor to fit anything else in it ... Besides, how do you keep the beer from floating away?

Chuckie:  You can keep the 90's and 100's.  I'm trying to bring back some of this Kansas weather with me, 30's to 40's.  I'm not sure what Delta will charge for the extra baggage, but get ready, I'm bringing as much as I can manage.

Tonight
Becoming mostly cloudy with a slight chance of light snow after midnight. Lows 25 to 28. Light and variable wind. Chance of snow 20 percent.
     
Columbus Day
Occasional light snow. 1 to 2 inches expected...mainly on the grass. Highs 35 to 38. Light and variable wind. Chance of snow 90 percent.

Not liking this forecast at all.....

It's a simple matter of tough love training, Brew.

I'm with Chuck 35^c / 95^f here today & I ain't taken the vest of yet.

I tried it and sure enough I got one. Nice little cube. I though it on the grill,  turned my head for 1 second, and someone stole it.

Sitting at my little desk in front of my bedroom window, watching the little flakes. 

Not staying on the grass, but the cars are covered with a thin veil of white.

Frost last night, calling for freezing temp. by Wednesday. I'm not ready for the cold. Here is a picture taken a few days ago about 20 minutes from my house.

---

Coming down pretty steady now.  Tree out my window has plenty of leaves yet, and they are covered.  The grass is dusted, and the cars are white.

It was only 3 weeks ago I was complaining about the heat/humidity here in Western Kentucky and now it 45 degrees.  What happened to Fall? 

It's here.

It Fell :D :D :D

Damn.

I don't mind the chilly stuff but I'm about to go postal over the rain almost every day. Up here, October is supposed to be sunny and dry. It's made all the Halloween decorations a mess too. We go nuts for it here. Good for pumpkin sales though.

This morning it's 45 and gray. Buffalo has better weather this year. The debacle of game day was beautiful. The "mistake on the lake" did us proud.

Still basking in the high 80's and low 90's temps down here in the Orlando area of Florida ....

I could get used to this, REAL easily!  Maybe I DO belong in "Wrinkle City" as I am real close to being a full time "wrinkle" !!!

LOL

Old Geezer Chuck

I miss fall :(

50's and 40's here.  What happened to the beautiful 70 degree fall days?

(sad) Beth

I agree Beth...

We here seemed to have had Fall all summer long, and we've run straight into early winter already. :-/

81 here today, pushing 90 tomorrow.

Finally getting some good rain. Had to cut down a really big pine tree in my front yard yesterday - too close to the house to let a storm bring it down. We lost a few big ones because of lack of rainfall.

Was sunny and in the 70's today......rain and high in the low 50's tomorrow. No wonder everyone is sick.

No need to brag while others are suffering.  8-)
It's been in the late 40's in the evenings here.  Peanut will just have to do with going across the street cause i'm not walking in this cold. 

Langa

It has rained 23 out of the pastt 33 days, with 23-27 inches of rain.  According to the weatherman, we are due for at least 2 more days of average to heavy rain.

Avg. rainfall for Sept. is a little over 3 inches and for October, it's a little over 4 inches, so we're way ahead of the game.

There's a lot of flooding going on around us, but out only worry is the gravel road washing out (a shovel fixes that problem with ease).

Anyone got any spare ark supplies?

In a nutshell, I believe it has to do with any number of viruses or harmful bacteria invading the body causing illness.  ;D

I mean how does the temperature factor into it?

'round these parts, wide temperature swings causes people to state "everyone is gonna get sick" or variation there of. The science behind such a statement eludes me but after hearing it all my life, stating such is a habit.  ;)

Tis my understanding that wide temperature swings promote viral growth of both warm and cold climate.  Usually you get one or the other, but when you get weather temp swings it promotes both - so you get more snotty noses. 

Not cold enough to cause dormancy in the warm ones and not warm enough to keep the cold ones in dormancy.   Watched a show on science channel about it, virii are really quite fascinating ya know!

Cat

eta:  my personal thoughts are that when it gets like this, people tend to gather in closer confines making transference of the virii easier, but that's just a guess.

Why do moms around the world tell kids around the world to wear a hat when it gets cold lest they get sick?

I never hear them say, "Don't wear that jacket today. It's going to be 85 degrees. You'll get sick."

As an old Hungarian adage says:

Cold worth nothing without wind.

(37 F with 30-40 mph wind here)

The colder the better when it comes to slowing down spreading disease.

Yup. Snow has come to western New York. Pretty wet stuff but it is here and will be for a few days.

I like snow but not in October. 35 degrees isn't fun either when it's supposed to be 55  >:(

Charlie

Woke up this morning and there was frost on the ground, looked at the thermostat and it was 32 degrees outisde. Brrrrrr

Beth (still waiting for the fall weather)

Had back to back Nor'Easters this weekend.

Came home from work and found this in my front yard.

THE OUCH YACHT!!!!  It's back from the bottom of the harbor!!!

It was rather chilly here this morning, 40 F when I got up at 7, frost on the ground and windshields.

Like others, where the hell did fall go?

Hit the coast for brunch, walked the beach at 78 degrees at 11:00AM. Came back toward home for a BBQ at my brother in laws ranch at 3:00 PM in shorts. Still 75 at sunset.

Fall weather is great, I love it!
