Yeah, new snow does make it easy to track, as long as it doesn’t get too deep, and you don’t have to worry about a wounded deer hiding and dying in the brush, which is a total waste. There will be a lot of people grateful for the food a deer provides in this economy.

We are looking at -3°C overnight which will give use several hours below freezing – time enough for some damage. I got everything done I needed to do, and there shouldn’t be any major problems. As soon as the wind shifts and we start to get some onshore flow it will warm up, as the Gulf is still in the 60sF.

Good luck with the tomatoes, Fallenmonk, but I suspect that you will have to utilize some green tomato recipes.

We had 2 days in the high 30’s (got to 36C one of the days) and very warm nights, which is unusual for us in Nov. Now it’s back to *normal* low-mid 20’s. *shrug*

Our mean temp varies here by roughly 30-35C over the year. But can vary up to 40C or more, and has (which is about a 105F variance for you). We have had years where the temp in Winter was -6C (21F) and summer was 42C (108F). Hard to cope with changes like that. I always laugh when I hear the weather here described (usually by tourists) as *mild*, I suppose compared to the equator in summer and the poles in winter, it is. LOL

this is where the 101 dalmations otherwise-too-many cats come in handy.
