It got up to 29C (86F) here yesterday - a vertiable heatwave for a summers day.
Winter averages a minimum overnight of around 0C and daytime max of 12-13C (about 54F). Of course I haven't always lived here. For the first 21 years summer was up around the 40-46C (100-115F) range. Waaaaaay too hot!

Do us a favor, and see if the old bunkers from the days of the Missile Crisis are still up near the beach; it's said that Varadero Beach was where 2nd MarDiv was supposed to come ashore if the Russians hadn't backed down on 30 Oct '62. Enjoy the sun in the meantime. Personally, though, I'll take St. Thomas if offered a Caribbean vacation.

Just going for the rest and to escape the Christmas mad rush... CIAO ...

Look, Wolf, you're looking at this whole thing the wrong way!
Not screw winter, screw in winter -- the other warm body next to you will keep you more comfy...

2 feet of snow on the ground here. It's pretty much shut down DC. Which, considering how everyone drives here? That's a good thing.
