This is getting ridiculous. We have fallen to a temperature, that for us down here in the Southwest, is like Vodka Cold for this time of year. It's 43/36. It is cold as heck! Our low is supposed to be 60.
If we keep on with these kinds of temperature anomalies into deep winter, we might end up far worse than last February's three quarter inch icestorm, or worse off than in the Infamous February 2021 Cold/Ice/Snow Outbreak, in which our pipes froze solid and I hauled water like an 1890s pioneer in the Oklahoma Territory.
I am definitely NOT used to this kind of cold, not after working outside in that fiery 104 every day for weeks.
EDIT 9pm: Our avg temps have now fallen to 79/59!!! Time to celebrate with a billion kegs of Texas Beer!
