So what is it like where you live now?
Winter is setting in on most of us.....are you into snow yet, howling winds, weather holding nice?

Right now in NC we are getting cold.....today is howling winds, rain for 2 days straight, no sun (ugh), damp, nasty, icky....no hanging out laundry..(ugh)

temps are hi 50s and into the 20s at night right now. not the weather I like in the South..LOL

and to think not 1 week ago we were in the hi 60s, sunny, warm, nice.....come back! :)

The temps rose from yesterday's rainy high 30's to the 50's - around here, we're happy with those temps!

Funny thing about our weather is we may get 60's again in both December and January - but then the hammer will come down hard and we'll be near zero - and could be lower!

Well so far I am loving this winter...it is still mild here for the most part...well mild in Canadian terms which means that we are not needing parkas yet, but it is below zero. We have been getting alot of snow the last week, we've got about 2 feet on the ground now and more coming this week. School buses are cancelled today...we got dumped on last night, so pretty outside!

I live in a very warm and mild climate...winters we still average in the 60's with nighttime lows in the 50s. Of course when a storm rolls in we get into the 40-50s and occasionally get a frost. Our first frost date in in Jan and our last is March....but where I live that in only a couple of times per season.

I think mid to upper 30's today. It is dark and gray! With a light flurry of snow but it is not sticking. We have already had a ton of snow here that has came down melted and then got some more. The pictures on my blog are from different weeks.

I did say sorry, that way I hope it doesn't upset too many people.
Guess it hurts more to hear that my tomatoes are starting to turn a little orange now too. Plus my green beans are really loading up my plants now too.
