1. Yep, here too...
:yoiks: It was 75 degrees over the weekend, and it was 65 degrees yesterday morning. It's supposed to be a high today of 34 and snow tonight. I was just complaining on Saturday night about how warm it was.

2. We have not been above freezing all week.
We may get to 34 today, and possibly 44 tomorrow, but that depends on how fast the cold front gets here.
