I'm also in SE MI.” 9:07:02 AM 1/03/04 “The is a winter storm that is comming from the West and it is going to give us our first taste of winter. Dust off the snowblower! 8)” 9:10:01 AM 1/03/04 “It feels like early summer here today, don't know the temp but it's comfortable in a T shirt.

I'm planning on heading north to Jones Gap, just N of Traveler's Rest. Gonna scope out the area for some easy overnights with my kids. If you wanna join up then come'on over. Email me to set up details.” 10:55:40 AM 1/03/04 “email send.” 11:11:51 AM 1/03/04 “we've had a few decent snows in central pa, but the thermometer reads not quite 60 degrees right now. Whats going on? I wanted to go skiing this week.” 11:29:43 AM 1/03/04 “temps are just f'd up. My kids just changed into shorts. I want my 4 seasons!! whaaaaaa!!” 11:32:49 AM 1/03/04 “we're probably gettin ready for the winter storm from he!!, ice and all manner of slick stuff.” 11:52:35 AM 1/03/04 “Gemini, you live in SC, part of the SOUTH! You know winters get wierd there!” 12:11:28 PM 1/03/04 “I know!!! I still do miss my 4 seasons! I did hike on ice before in NC, so anything is possible.” 12:19:34 PM 1/03/04 “Yeah, we get occasional bursts of winter. just doesn't last long.” 12:34:27 PM 1/03/04 “80 degrees here in Tampa today.” 12:35:40 PM 1/03/04 “Your in FL - that doesn't count! LOL” 12:37:36 PM 1/03/04 “Do you ever miss the cold Artex? Or did you already turn into a beach bum?? LOL” 12:47:59 PM 1/03/04 “I'd like to see a 16-18 inch snow that traps everyone at home. We haven't had one in approximately 6 years around here. Makes work alot easier, and is fun to take the jeep out in after work.” 1:00:11 PM 1/03/04 “Jan 3 and I'm outside in shorts and a T shirt. Strange. At least it's not hot. It's actually pretty comfortable.” 2:54:33 PM 1/03/04 Winter is expected in Chicago tonight “The weather-guessers are saying 3-6 inches of snow tonight with another inch or two Sunday morning--then temps. dropping, perhaps sub-zero for a night or two. But then they also said that it was going to rain today, and we got a day hike in with no rain--still no rain. It almost looks like it's going CMB's way and missing us--again. CMB. Did you change the oil in the snowblower?” 4:02:59 PM 1/03/04 “Dude, it was 62 degrees in Hammonton, NJ today during my day hike.. felt like summer!” 4:04:55 PM 1/03/04 “Nice day in PA as well, the grounds a bit soft though. High of about 62.” 4:15:45 PM 1/03/04 “It is eleventy the grees heer to day. That is perty code I gess but ther aint no sno no wher.” 4:48:04 PM 1/03/04 “Mid 30's w/ some light rain here today. We've had somewhere around 5 feet of snow this year, but it's rained a few days after every storm. We've only got about 6 inches of snow left on the ground. It's supposed to get cold here by Tuesday with nighttime lows just below zero. Can winter finally be here?” 5:59:58 PM 1/03/04 “I like this weather we are having. It's not really cold, but just nice and cool for hiking. With no snow on the ground it's easy to get to the trailhead and the hiking is great. It's like an extended fall. It's nice to ski and snowshoe, but I don't miss it that much.” 6:22:40 PM 1/03/04 “36 right now with highs in the low 30's and lows in the teens to -5 for next week. Is that winter enough for you?” 8:21:51 PM 1/03/04 “I prefer hiking in the cold” 9:40:36 PM 1/03/04 “you all are nuts, bring on the heat!!! Devil's Ice Box trail was nice and toasty yesterday, it was great!” 9:46:52 PM 1/03/04 “Is that Kwame Kilpatrick on TT now?” 12:12:06 AM 1/04/04 “Bring on the Heat??? Your peeps are freaks! Not only is it unnatural, but my "honey-do" list keeps getting longer! WE NEED A BLIZZARD IN PA !!!” 12:29:08 AM 1/04/04 “Dude, it's here on the west coast. Want it back?” 4:33:04 AM 1/04/04 “BLIZZARDS ROCK!” 8:06:03 AM 1/04/04 “Bring on the snow. This warm weather is making for some sh*ty trail conditions.” 3:00:05 PM 1/04/04 thanks zac “I was starting to get p.oed reading everyone else's weather. figure if I can't have snow, I wouldn't mind some of that warmer weather...that I ain't gettin.” 3:07:20 PM 1/04/04 “Right now most of the trails around me are covered with about 3 to 4" of slush and wet snow, the stuff that you can't seem to keep from sticking to the bottoms of your snowshoes.” 3:17:58 PM 1/04/04 “Well here it comes, snow just started and up to six inches expected by tommorow, plus it's supposed to be down in the mid teens this week, I say bring it on!” 3:29:08 PM 1/04/04 “umm nevermind....it stopped snowing...” 3:44:06 PM 1/04/04 “"you all are nuts, bring on the heat!!! Devil's Ice Box trail was nice and toasty yesterday, it was great!" blackmayr 09:46:52 PM 01/03/04 Yeah bring on the heat!!!! 110 degrees anyday is better then cold :) I don't think I will ever be warm again. Snowing loads here today. We must have about 8 inches right now.” 3:50:26 PM 1/04/04 “I'm going to turn the AC down lower so I can have a fire in the fireplace tonight!” 4:28:51 PM 1/04/04 “I should have worn shorts today. A bit too warm for jeans.” 4:44:14 PM 1/04/04 “Bring the snow on!” 5:08:30 PM 1/04/04 “It'sss Heeeeere in MI. Later this evening I'll get to try out the new snowshoes in my backyard. By next weekend, the first dayhike!! WoooHooo!” 5:11:29 PM 1/04/04 “I was wishing I had my zip off pants on today on Jones Gap. It was nice, about mid 60's and humid.” 5:26:45 PM 1/04/04 “LOL the way you wrote zip off pants was just sounding really funny to me for some reason.” 5:30:35 PM 1/04/04 “ WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY URGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICEALBANY NY 342 PM EST SUN JAN 4 2004 ...A WINTRY MIX OF PRECIPITATION FOR EASTERN NEW YORK AND WESTERN NEW ENGLAND... 6:23:45 PM 1/04/04 “here comes winter” 6:24:27 PM 1/04/04 “It was wierd this weekend.
