We are getting HAMMERED. By the weather guessers a lot more to come)

Lots of power failures. Our power has gone out twice for a couple seconds. By the looks of how the trees are bending over it does not look good!

You da man,,, ENJOY!!

I was playing today UNTIL my right rotator cuff flared.
I need to consider surgery and rehab after dealing with both cuffs for 10 years.
I bet I am giving up at least 20 yards on my drives.

Have a great time, playing golf allows a few hours aways from all this craziness.

That is a normal day anytime of the year for a 3-mile stretch on I-95 through Broward County

81 yesterday, but another front moving in and a high of 55 today with snow levels down to 2500 feet tonight. The Sierra snowpack is over 105% of normal, so it's a nice year here, water-wise.

Because others posted the weather conditions in their area. But if it pisses you off, well that’s just a happy coincidence.

It's mostly reciprocal. Yadkin usually brings up Florida or Florida drivers in Mayberry threads, so we're all used to it.

Yadkin speak: Florida is spelled 'Floriduh', and Mayberry is spelled 'Yadkinville'.
