Icy ice

We are getting a bit of freezing rain here today. It's cold, really bone chilling through all our clothes kind of cold. It is dark and gray, and the small 'ticks' of ice on the awnings reminds me that it surely is winter.

However the great thing is that in a few days the temperatures will slide up to the 60s and to 70. Whenever there is a deep cold in north GA, it doesn't last but more than a few days and then we get a reprieve.

In Maine where I used to live, this was posted on WGME News 13 Chief Meteorologist Charlie Lopresti of Portland Maine's Facebook page:

BRRR!! I have nothing to complain about, nothing! Have a nice weekend everybody!
