Each year, my tolerance for winter gets shorter. It’s nice to have snow and cold around the holidays, appropriate even. But by the end of January, I’m ready for the sun and natural warmth.
Here it is only the first week of January, and northwest Ohio has seen the gamut of winter weather already. Snow, ice, sleet, blowing snow, [Inuit word for beady snow that flies around like little styrofoam balls without the static electricity], freezing rain, rain, ground fog, freezing FOG, and on December 27, 70 degree temps! We were visiting friends in Columbus that weekend, celebrating the holidays with a very nice dinner while the windows were open and the kids played outside! The only thing absent is a massive snow storm with major accumulations.
According to certain meteorologists, the upcoming week is statistically the coldest week of the season. The forecasted lows of -2 to -7 will likely confirm that! I wonder what it’s like in Orlando about now…
Dry skin, wet floors, salt-encrusted boots, problematic automobiles...I’m done with that shite already!
