My car on the way to work..... This has been a normal morning around here in SE Wisconsin since the first of the year, any where from -15 to 1 degree mornings with the highs barely getting into the 20's.... I $% @#^#@ hate winter this year......

We are going to get about 10 inches of snow Wed into Thurs. in central NC. As long as we don't lose power, everything will be OK.

Let me warn everyone right now, so you won't be too offended when I complain about a cold snap in Miami that you would call a spring day fit for 36 holes in shorts and a t-shirt. Even though I'm originally from Kentucky and grew up around a bit of cold weather every winter, I am fully acclimated to Miami now and I'll complain like all get out when it goes down into the 50s. In the 40s, I'll cry out loud and the high 30s will cause my personal molecular movement to cease. I'm a golfing temperate wuss.

I've had a good day if I don't fall out of the cart...

I don't know how you stand it. I'd go nuts in weather like that. Stay warm and hug your clubs.

Near Atlanta has already gotten 1 inch of ice. That is about 10x as worse as 8-10 inches of snow.

I can't wait for the 40+ days ahead for Ohio. TO THE DRIVING RANGE!!

Of course we had the 2 inches of snow a couple of weeks ago that crippled the city with parking lot style traffic.  My commute that day was 9 hours which included abandoning my truck and taking out on foot at 1am in dress shoes.  AND MINE IS A SUCCESS STORY!!

Today is better in that instead of the entire city being stuck in their cars, we are all stuck at home.  The problem this time is the potential of so many trees getting weighed down with ice that they fall and cause power outages.  About 85k folks without power so far.

More ice and snow to come, but at least we're home this time.

I grew up in the DC area, so we had snow,but not like NH. Most of the people in NC do OK in the snow, but we can get ice, and then we have big problems. I'm just going to stay home, and watch Olympic hockey.

Ice storms are bar far the worst.  Lot's of power outages.  Best of luck.

Hey, good to know there's another south Jersey victim on here. I'm hoping they'll cancel work tomorrow, but I'd rather all the dang ice/snow melt. Cabin fever is nearing all time high's for me. S/J needs a good indoor range.

      I know you guys were discussing this like a year ago. But, ironically I just had this discussion with my brother-in-law. We literally just did one of these. I'd always used the "Slow-Cook, Rest, and Sear" Method. But my bother-in-law was convinced the "5-Min/lb, 500 degree" method was the way. So, we gave it a go. I have to say it came out great.  I have a 25 year old, electric oven, GE brand... Not sure if that matters, but it came out great. ... Of course we stressed that nobody was to open the oven.   I don't make these all that often so, I'm not sure if I can fully recommend one method or the other, because without doing a Pepsi Challenge, I'd say both ways come out great. 👍😁👍
