33 at noon today.
It was quite funny sitting in the Moroccan section of Epcot, reading people's tweets about the sudden cold and sleet while sipping some espresso alcoholic beverage in 80 degree sun.

People are gonna flip out this winter after last year's paradise winter.

It's great going to another city that thinks they have a monopoly on the phrase. I love saying 'yeah, we say the same thing in KC. And Wichita. And...'

From what I see on the weather channel, only the under 18 crowd will be thanking Jesus for the weather today.
