Look at the date and time on the upper left hand corner in the left picture and then the right! It wasn't this cold during the Ice Age when I was born in Fort Lauderdale!! Now this would qualify as a cold wave in South Florida yesterday or could it be the definition on Fake News? I may have to go to Tennessee, New Hampshire, Maine or Rhode Island to warm up or even better to New Zealand or Australia where it is summer!

I'll stay here--don't want to be there in a couple of days when it is freezing, snowing and causing a mess up there!! But thanks for the invitation!

They’d never get anything wrong. Computers don’t make mistakes! For your enjoyment.....
Weather Man Cory McCloskey makes light of situation of the computer glitch displaying 1000+, 2000+ degrees on the weather map from Fox10 Phoenix on January 2...

That might be a goof up. Hope they realize and issue an apology. Not good for their professional reputation.

That is crazy! There were a couple of days here that it was supposed to be warm, but they turned out to be chilly . . . I don't know about these forecasts sometimes. But now we are almost at 90 - windy and dry - it does feel like pre-summer.
