    32 deg. F this morning ! If I had a pumpkin, there would be frost on it! Have a fire in the wood burner and the cat is asleep behind the stove. He thinks he has died and gone to heaven!

    You must have gotten the cold temperatures that were promised to us here in Ontario! The weatherman had called for over night temperatures below freezing but it didn't get that cold. It was 5°C when I got up this morning.
    Lucky kitty!

    The whole state of Ohio is in a hard freeze warning from 2 am until 10 am on Mon. They are saying down into the mid 20's for here tonight.

    Getting colder here as well Capt. Judging by the not-too-warm summer I'm guessing we won't have that severe of a winter but don't quote me on that.

    We have nearly no berries on the rowan this autumn, and it is believed to be a harbinger of a cold winter with lots of snow. Whether this still remains true with all the climatic changes I don't know.

    Cold again this morning, but not as bad as what they predicted. Only got down to 32 F here this morning.

    Well, we are going back into the 50 degrees at night 80's daytime weather again :'(
    If you all get any pretty frost on the ground or snow that will photograph, I would really, really like to see pictures of it.
