March mists

March 4, 2008

In my last post, I stated a myth that said however many days of mist in March, there will be that many days of frost in May. Today’s forecast from Accuweather is calling for some mist, so I’ll have to watch out for that. This may be our day #1 of mist. More later.

It’s cold in Philadelphia

February 28, 2008

And I love it. Not actually walking in it, but I feel like we need cold days in winter, and we just haven’t had enough of them this year.

Currently, it is 20 degree F outside, according to KYW.
Accuweather also reports 20 degrees with a wind chill of -2.
weather.com reports 21 degrees with a real feel of 6.
