[EricF]

Great minds smoke alike! :D

[bruceolee]

I almost feel bad for our snowed in BOTL elsewhere........almost. :ss

You guys are killing me! As a former Miami and Ft. Myers resident, I envy you guys this time of year!

It's such a beautiful mild night that it deserves a beautiful, mild cigar :ss

Yeah but you know we sweat our A$$'s off in the summer so this is just our time of year.

Very true! I don't miss having to take a shower after taking the dog for a ten minute walk in July. :rolleyes:

No need in July, just wait 10 minutes and it will rain! :D

[MrClean]

We're going to be close to 60 the next couple of days and I have plans those nights!! :mad:

[Gabe215]

It's about 20° here, 3" on the ground, expecting another 1"-2" tomorrow, but I wouldn't give up Autumn for anything and I love sitting in my warm house with a hot bowl of Chili watching TV and l

[Gabe215]

Looking at the snow coming down out the window! Shoving my long driveway and driving in it sucks though**

With temps like that it's a wonder more people don't die from the harsh winters in the frozen tundra of Florida. I may actually have to open up the house AGAIN tomorrow! All our northern brothers please pray for us Floridians that we manage to survive the winter with as little cannibalism as possible!


Have you ever read The Road? or seen the movie version? Basically thats what Florida winters are like so PLEASE never movie down here! It's for your own safety and ours. Plus we hate when snow birds come down only to drive 5 mph UNDER the speed limit in the left hand lane. :fl

[Gabe215]

Hahaha that would be my parents!! PA drivers are well known for driving under the speed limit in the left lane, they have a house in KW, they're there from Oct-May, come here for the holidays and summer.

Believe it or not but I love the cold and snow Gabe. I grew up traveling to Virginia every year around thanksgiving to see the grandparents. I get high with the crisp air, wood stoves, and burning leaves that come along with autumn. In fact, on those rare occasions when it gets into the 20's down here it's the best sleep i get all year just being bundled in a billion blankets keeping warm. I really do love it but thanks to MANY surgeries I just can't handle it long term. Whenever I go see my brother in Colorado I always plan it in autumn or winter. That all being said I will NEVER complain about the beautiful weather Florida gets this time of year. It makes smoking a cigar on a night like tonight that much more enjoyable.

A Boli PC tonight btw :ss

[TJtorpedo]

Man, lows in the upper 40s?? You guys take care down there...Stay inside and bundle up!

[EricF]

68, clear and a '12 RASS

[bruceolee]

Florida check in on ANOTHER stellar, beautiful day. Whatcha smoking tonight?

Starting with a custom rolled PC first and i'm debating pulling out one of my '07 Diplo #4's after dinner.

Save me a spot in SoFlo. I will be down soon enough, gotta find me a house :tu

Guy down the street from me is getting ready to retire and move...

Finding a house won't be a problem down here. We have almost as many houses for sale as slow snow bird drivers which is a sh$t ton of them

I hope it stays that way for a few years. That's where my wife and I are most likely heading after she wraps up her Air Force career.

[Felixcigar]

My weather is almost as nice:
Snow depth: 12"
Temp. 32º

[Blueface]

I love calling friends and relatives early a.m. When still drowsy and telling them how cold it is this morning.
When they ask further about it, I say not here in South Florida, I am referring to how cold it is this morning where they are based on the NY morning shows being aired.:r
Amazing how I get them every year with it.

LOL! Carlos i do the same thing! I have an aunt and uncle that live in upstate NY (they used to own and run a dairy farm but have switched to high end maple syrup) and every time it snows i call to check on them only baiting them into the "the weather is amazing here" conversation. :)

Dealing with this today!

[Heavy_d]

Lucked out here. My part of KY is experiencing an unseasonable warm spell, in the 60's the next few days, may even reach low 70's on Saturday, and I fully intend to take advantage of it!

[Gabe215]

Philly is warming up to 60 on sat and 70 on Sunday, back to 30s by tues,

[bruceolee]

Gonna hit Cmitch..........er I mean i'm i'm gonna hit one of my HU Connies 1's tonight while watching Donnie Brasco methinks. :)

[Blueface]

Brace yourselves guys.
Heard a one day cold front coming tomorrow.
68 expected to be the high.
Wife is running to get mink out of storage.
Looking for my down coat, gloves and galoshes in the event of a freak snow storm
If I could only figure out where I put my scarf.:r

[bruceolee]

Tomorrow is what we like to call a "Florida blizzard" :D

[Ogre]

Yea, high here tomorrow of 55. Declare a state of emergency.

[Heavy_d]

Since the roads here are covered in ice and it's pouring the snow, I'll just leave this for all you Floridians. :fu2

[bruceolee]

Just remember to wear layers and stay warm. We don't usually have to use the heater down here so remember not to set it too warm. Fortunately I don't work tomorrow :D so be careful on those roads!


Also remember the sun tan lotion :)

[bruceolee]

59F at 130pm. I don't know how we survive here sometimes! :D

[EricF]

I expect the news tonight to show people on South Beach in Parkas, hats & gloves! :r

[Blueface]

65 at 1:30 p.m. in Boca.
Forgot to put up the top on the car and nearly froze by nose off.
Glad I had on my thermal underwear.

[equetefue]

is actually cold here in Orlando 47

The hardships we must endure! It's sad days in Floida when we have to put the top up on our convertibles! ;)

[bruceolee]

is actually cold here in Orlando 47

If you read or watch game of thrones then let us consider Orlando north of the wall

[MurphysLaw]

I was planning on doing some work in the yard tomorrow, but might have to stay bundled up inside..I might catch a chill.

[Blueface]

What's truly sad is we are toying with the truth.
I went outside this morning in my shorts, t shirt, no socks or shoes, to put out some recycle bottles.
While not even remotely close, it felt like winter in NJ.
It was cold.

Amazing how our blood thins.

[bruceolee]

This is torture! I had to close my windows it got too cold!

[Whipper Snapper]

A balmy high of 3 degrees this coming monday.
ugh.

[bruceolee]

68F right now and beautiful but getting colder. I may have to............GULP............wear a sweater tomorrow! Keep us in your prayers tonight my northern BOTL as we endure this insufferable hardship! My feet may get cold! and nothing pisses me off more than my feet GETTING COLD!!!! :fl

[maninblack]

Y's can kiss my Missouri a$$. But I'm very jealous

[EricF]

49 degrees right now and going up to 62 this afternoon!!! :tu

It is amazing how many people think this is a deep freeze down here!!!

[Ogre]

We will hit 48 today, but 80 this weekend.

[Heavy_d]

We will hit 48 today, but 80 this weekend.

We'll be lucky to hit 8 today! Hopefully supposed to be in 40's tomorrow though.

[equetefue]

it was 32 this morning where I live. Thank god I was able to grill lobster tails and porterhouse steaks Sunday before all this cold weather hit :tf

To continue my game of thrones analogies Edwin your new name is "Jon Snow" for being so brave to live in such cold weather.



that AND defending us from ice zombies

[MrClean]

is actually cold here in Orlando 47

:lr :lr

You realize when you guys say cold, you need to qualify it by saying......"for us thin blooded people". :D

It -3 this morning. That's approaching cold for us.

[bruceolee]

58F and all is well. :D

Smoking a RASCC right now to keep warm. :)



It's supposed to break into the upper 30's here tonight so to my northern brothers please send word to Washington to have FEMA on standby. I'd say about 50% of us could freeze to death tonight. :tg

[Heavy_d]

I would say bite me, but since it's 27 degrees here in KY with expected snow tonight, you'd have to lay me out to thaw first. But still, jealous here in the hills.

[bruceolee]

While our northern brothers are iced in their homes tonight it's 70F and beautiful! :D I hope all my south Fla brothers are managing the weather well! Smoking a Cohiba Secretos tonight with maybe another to follow. :D

A time to celebrate as we can now vote for medical marijuana this November. I would certainly benefit greatly from it with all the medical misery I suffer from. I do seriously have several problems that I think could be helped by it. Hypertension, Chronic pain (wanna get off the narcotics or at least reduce what I take), Chronic Nausea, and several other issues which I won't get into publicly but now at least there's a chance for hope. It's not about getting high for me it's about helping me live my life a little better. So, tonight a little celebration along with the great weather. :)

Hope you're all doing well this fine night!
