Was toasty warm until about 4:30 when my feet and backside were alitte chilly but not too bad, had to wiz but I was not gettin out. Wife came out at 6:00 and I jumped back in the bed for a nap before work. Learning experience and glad I did it, really only issue was my nose was getting cold so I may investigate some type of other mask with my tobaggin. If it gets below 18F next week I may bring a second 0.5" pad.” 5:52:16 AM 1/06/08 “I started to sleep in mine last night just for the heck of it but ended up falling asleep on the couch instead.” 6:23:19 AM 1/06/08 ““Friday, Jan 18 High: 31 °F RealFeel®: 37 °F Mostly sunny Friday Night, Jan 18 Low: 20 °F RealFeel®: 4 °F Patchy clouds Friday, Jan 18 High: 31 °F RealFeel®: 22 °F Mostly sunny Friday Night, Jan 18 Low: 20 °F RealFeel®: 20 °F Clear Saturday, Jan 19 High: 42 °F RealFeel®: 41 °F Sunshine and warmer Saturday Night, Jan 19 Low: 22 °F RealFeel®: 28 °F Clear” Forecast on January 6th Friday, Jan 18 High: 42 °F RealFeel®: 45 °F Partial sunshine Friday Night, Jan 18 Low: 23 °F RealFeel®: 13 °F Partly cloudy Saturday, Jan 19 High: 44 °F RealFeel®: 34 °F Mostly cloudy Saturday Night, Jan 19 Low: 24 °F RealFeel®: 29 °F Mostly cloudy Sunday, Jan 20 High: 42 °F RealFeel®: 35 °F Rain Sunday Night, Jan 20 Low: 23 °F RealFeel®: 6 °F Partly cloudy and cold with a shower” 7:14:26 AM 1/06/08 “I think the forecast is gettin a little better each time ya post it!
