Yes, It Does Get Cold In the South....

GaTechKid · December 11th, 2004, 12:06

Evident by the freezing levels at 4000' across much of Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi. Add a PIREP of freezing drizzle at 2500' south of Atlanta, LLWS at Peachtree-Dekalb, and the various airmets out for icing from 3000-16000 and you get a grounded pilot. Grrr....Oh well, Texas can wait until tomorrow.

Come to Cleveland, right now it is about 20 degrees and snowing. Hope we get a white Christmas!

Doug Taylor · December 11th, 2004, 12:26

Forecast to be 77 and clear here in PHX!

Of course, add another 50 degrees to that come June, but for now it's comfy!

GrantHubbell · December 11th, 2004, 12:33

Doug, you lucky duck. Oh, by the way I know what you mean, I used to live in Alboqurqe, where you could ski and golf in the same day!

Doug Taylor · December 11th, 2004, 12:42

Where's Albakurky?

Sorry man I had to!

Thats the one thing I don't miss about home, the chilly winter days and the lake effect snow. Although, it really doesn't feel like Xmas time when its still sunny at 75 out everyday.

76 and sunny here

; at least I think so I haven't been outside yet

Timmypig · December 11th, 2004, 13:17

Cold at Christmas? What a bizarre concept!

It's usually 30 degrees ... centigrade .... and the air full of bush fire smoke. People often go to the beach on Christmas Day.

Personally I don't like the heat, but what are ya gonnna do? S'pose I'll just have to knock back a few cold ones to compensate.

GrantHubbell · December 11th, 2004, 13:18

Well, going to the beach on Christmas day would be fun!

EDUC8-or · December 11th, 2004, 13:54

It's cold here today, I think it's 64 and the ocean is down to 75.

Yea that is funny. In Cleveland everybody pulls out the sweatshirts and ski caps when it is about 30.

I've spent the week in southeastern New Mexico and the weather has been beautiful. Temps in the 70s and clear skies.

mastermags · December 12th, 2004, 11:51

What's funny is we had thunderstorms and temps in the 70's two days ago....you just cant keep up.

Windchill · December 12th, 2004, 21:56

Yea, it was crazy, I just got back today from the CRTC in Savannah for training ... it was warmer in Dec than it was when we were down in Oct ... but then Friday morning Sav had some serious t'storms and hail, then it was freezing ... not so bad when you had to spend hours in a chemical warfare suit and gas mask.

Crazy weather down there.
