Check out this bizarre map of the Continental U.S.20260127_110124.thumb.jpg.e1d6cf671cc4fa2222e0ec067074eef4.jpg

This was surprising to see so much of it in really cold conditions, and interesting that Corpus Christi Texas will be colder than Galveston and even Southeastern Colorado the next week! Lots of shivering palms coast to coast!🌴🥶🌴

    Yeah and the app i was using that implied that Colorado was warmer than Corpus was a bust,

    as the next day it was totally wrong! Oh well, this cold wave hitting Florida this weekend is no

    laughing matter for many in those parts. Meanwhile, ice still exists in shady areas even here in 

    Dallas, 

    New York and the NE in general are looking to break below freezing duration days record. Big bummer for 

    any hopes of palm lined New Jersey shores or such. Some of these records go back as long as records being

    kept. I remember a TV show about global warming in the 80s speculating whether NYC would have a climate

    balmy enough for such scenes in 50 years and me at the time scoffing at! I don't think it will ever be in our 

    lifetimes 40 plus years later!
