Wintry Day For Many; Remote Post: On Vacation
Snow and wintry conditions have returned for many in the northeast and midwest, where at least a foot of snow may blanket parts of upstate New York. Story: Late Snow Puts Spring On Ice. Sioux City, Iowa saw a record 18 inches of the white stuff pile up on Monday, while up to 8 inches of snow has fallen in parts of Ohio and nearly 4 inches of snow has covered Detroit.

I am posting this weblog entry from my old hometown just north of Port Huron, in the “thumb” part of Michigan (via my Dad’s WebTV/MSN-TV contraption). I’m more than 1,300 miles from my north Texas home, and I can feel the difference. It’s 24 degrees here just before 6 p.m., and up to three inches of snow has fallen today. Meanwhile, in Fort Worth, temperatures are in the 70s all week. My sister and neice in Oklahoma were laughing at me during a phone call last night. I guess it’s my turn to be on the receiving end of the “we’re warmer than you” jokes… Anyway, my wife and I are having fun up here. If you are on vacation this week, we wish you the same (and warmer temperatures, if possible).
