Jim right after thanksgiving and into early December we had a few 70* days like you then winter hit. The worst really started Jan.23rd 2026
About 300,000 people lost power at one time in the state-wide Ice Storm. I was one of the lucky ones to keep my power HOWEVER, a few days ago my town and county lost water because of massive leaks and it was hard to find them here in the high country.
If anyone had water they had to boil it. That was another week of no schools and frustration but since I wont drink tap water anywhere, I did ok. Water returned yesterday and the temp was 60*. I still found some ice in my yard today from 2 weeks ago. I'm over winter. Had a couple of friends already wanting me to go in on a duplex in the deep south. They were hit hard with no electricity or water for days and I understand but it was 34* in Miami last week, snowed in Tampa and water lines busted in North Florida. No one has mentioned Yuma AZ yet

It would have to be SW to get me too move. I told them just rent a place in winter for 2 or 3 months, seems safer that way

Good to hear from you Jim.
