I agree, ain't no way I am jumping in 70 degree water.

But at 90 degrees outside, my heat pump can have my 11k gallon pool to 80 degrees in a day.

Have you never been to Barton Springs?  Or swam in the Comal?

70 degrees is brisk, but it's definitely swimmable--as in, I'm going to swim, use the diving board, play with the kids, etc. I wouldn't just stand in the water.

You're doing it completely wrong. When it's cold you stay in it so you get used to it. Every time you get out to dive back in you refreeze.

This man speaks the truth. Sit in the river, keep 2/3 of the can submerged. Once you get out, go sit in the sun and say I am done.

Down from 94. I'll take it? 

Any rain heading your way?

If it's the Comal, sweet sweet alcohol will warm you up as you float it's greatness

Bout ready for this upcoming front to arrive. Weather has been quite blah this week and is just straight nasty today. Currently 87 and muggy as hell with a feels like of 94. Ain't ready for this shit yet.

And wow, just saw that temps on Saturday night/Sunday morning are expected to drop even lower than last time I looked earlier in the week. Then the next 5-6 days after that are just about perfect April weather.

Need enough rain Friday and Saturday to wash some of this fucking pollen away.  Then I can enjoy the weather next week.

Broke the previous record of 1.5 inches of snowfall today in Amarillo.

basically snowed all day from about 5AM through 3:30PM or so.  3-5 inches of snow, which has melted on all street surfaces and such.

Weird day, but we'll damned sure take the moisture!!!
