I’m thinking we see this a couple times this winter as it follows this same pattern we’ve had since the summer. If we’re lucky the timing/blocking/cold air/moisture all come together to give everyone a little frozen happiness. I really like our chances this winter.
It’s a little breezy today There are some trees down, branches and a ton of leaves flying around, but so far imby it’s not too bad. Had a few gusts about 50ish mph so far and I believe there’s a report of 60ish near here too.
I’ve only seen one solid black woolly worm and he is the biggest one I’ve ever seen The rest have all been “bookend” marked. I’m thinking we will have decent chances this year, despite the La Niña designation.
edit to say I can’t remember the last time I thought this

OMG the mosquitoes are horrible here! It’s like I’m still in the lowcountry
Got sprinkled on just enough to make the heat miser say “hold my beer”, before turning up the dial to molten lava
I see low 80’s for highs again in the long range. I really want to believe it will happen too ........meanwhile it’s 90something with swampy air and little to no breeze to shoo the mosquitoes away
