Currently 74°F here in St John... Brrrr....

“74°F” is better known ’round these parts as “freezing my butt off”.
We had about an hour long chilly drizzle this morning, aka Caribbean Snow,
but now the sun is shining all around on the horizon so I will probably
be trading in the long sleeve t-shirt I am bundled up in right now
for a sleeveless tank top in about thirty minutes.


Wish you were here? (We do!) -c

I wish I was there! Beautiful picture, even if it is so "cold."
It's like looking in your soup and finding a whole different alphabet.

I'm where that big -1 is in the center of your map. 75 sounds pretty good to me. But I suppose it's all relative.

OK, you don't have any degrees up there right now...I'll loan you some of our 26 degrees, if later in the summer you'll take about 20 of our 100+ degrees.... :lol:

Cheryl, we envy you, darlin....

We have 100+ degree days here too, so no thanks, I don't want any of your summer heat. And really a few of your 20 degrees wouldn't really help 0 that much. But thanks for the thought. Wouldn't it be great if we could share our degrees.

We're on our way - waiting for our plane to arrive in Ft. Lauderdale (where it was only 45 when we landed!). We're trying to bring some warm weather with us!

It was cold here this morning. Our son left the house at 6:45 for school in a sweatshirt and jeans and I think it was 22 degrees (I have found out that when you get to 7th grade wearing a jacket is not cool even if you do freeze your butt off!) Looking forward to our first trip with our family in July.

Can't help with your temperatures as North Central Florida is struggling to get very far into the 40s at one in the afternoon... but I love your icy blue photo!

24 here now. Balmy. :wink:
Not nice to rub in that it is 74 in STJ!

I hear that Florida is the only State in the US without snow now. And it is cold there too!

27 here now. The sun is shining and it actually feels warmer. The snow is glistening but not melting. Piled high all around.
I'll have to wait for July in the VI for warmer temps.
Thanks for the beautiful picture. One of your lobster rolls sounds pretty good right now.

We are going down on Saturday and I was requested by my mom (who has been shivering since Sunday) to bring down a pair of flannel pants. I said "wuss!" at least you weren't home to shovel the snow off your driveway (which I had to do!)

Hopefully it warms up soon down there....by Saturday would be nice :D

I teach middle school and some kids are so cool they wear shorts all winter long - and we get very cold days - some claim to not have long pants which unfortunately may be true :( we have some VERY cold days too.
