What's the temperature where you are???

I'm in North Florida, and it's 23 right now (at 8 am). It supposedly got into the teens last night.

My brother lives in Wisconsin and he said it was -26 yesterday. He sent me a video of him throwing hot water into the air and it instantly froze and I could hear his rooster crowing away in the background!
I remember that. We had flurries that year. I have pix somewhere.

NSW ski resort closes doors pending snow dump to extend season​

There are concerns significant snowfall which ski resorts in Kosciuszko National Park are hoping for might not be enough to save the season.

The Bureau of Meteorology has forecast warm conditions for the alpine area in the coming week with cold fronts to arrive later, bringing a light amount of snow.

Selwyn Ski Resort, which is the lowest lying resort in the park, has closed its doors for the season unless more snow arrived.

It only reopened last year after being destroyed in the 2019/2020 Black Summer Bushfires.

Meanwhile, lift operations have been scheduled to close at Perisher's Smiggin Holes and Guthega slopes on Sunday.

Selwyn Ski Resort assistant manager Abi Spackman said her fingers were crossed for ideal conditions, hoping to soon reopen the business if a decent amount of snow fell.

"It's just not worthwhile for the guests to come here at the moment with the little snow that we do have," Ms Spackman said.

"We're just so grateful that we got to open for as long as we have and hopefully, we get a little bit longer."
