A Very Chilly Monday Morning

The only city in the USA to have never had frost -- Key West, FL.

Also, their post office is built with a slanted roof -- identical to those in the northern climates to prevent snow accumulation. (actually was a USPS requirement for all construction in that time period)

No snow or frost here, but, the heater has been working overtime.

And down here, there are no heat pumps -- its all resistive heat. What you people with heat pumps call 'Emergency Heat'. FPL shareholders take delight in this kind of weather. Double edged sword for me.

Tons of work to do, so, I'm back to it.
