Accuweather has me at 1 deg. with a ...-26::F real feel tonight. The King is ripping but only maintaining 70::F inside.
 
We don't have that type of cold, but I am burning my Jotul Castine tonight. March 24 in central Texas with a fire is real late. Had A/C on a couple of nights ago. Probably will burn tomorrow night as well. Might freeze here with all trees budding except the reliable pecan. The local wisdom is that when the pecan buds you can plant anything.

Stay warm, this front should pass pretty soon. If you need dry wood, let me know.
 
The robins around here are wearing snowpants and knit hats. :)

"PITTSBURGH (AP) — An Ohio prosecutor who light-heartedly filed a criminal indictment against the famous Pennsylvania groundhog who fraudulently "predicted" an early spring said he may consider a pardon now that the animal's handler is taking the blame."

And who is dumber . . . a large rodent who supposedly predicts the start of Spring or the hordes of folks who eagerly await his emergence in the hopes of him seeing or not seeing his shadow as they believe it may predict an early Spring? I tell ya . . . sometimes I think we're just one step away from the good ol' days when the earth was flat and the center of the universe.
 
News Flash! Just heard on the local news the groundhog entered the witness protection program today! :)
