You must be in the mountains. I am in southern Idaho and we didn't get any snow, but the wind chill was -7 this morning. The horses didn't seem too cold, but I think they were happy to get extra hay this morning to keep warm. |

| I talked to my friend yesterday, who has moved south of Houston. Said she was freezing and that she was going to blanket her horses......it was in the mid 50s!!!
Seriously??!! I was out yesterday and was too warm in a lightweight, long sleeved shirt and it was in the 50s. Now it is in the 30s and looking forward to lows in the 20s and teens.....it is too freakin early for this crap!!
Global warming anyone?
Looks like I need to break out the tanks warmers and timers.. Forget that breaking the ice.

Location: Moving soon..... | It's going to be 50's to low 30's for the next 7-8 days. I don't blanket my horses it's just not cold enough here. They were in Brady for 5 years so the weather around Bryan is just not as cold, although the dry humidity is a lot better than where I am now. I am a big chicken and could not live up north. Y'all are a lot braver than me. |

I started out in King Hill... Then moved to Wendell then to Jerome... Like I said, the last winter I was there it stayed below freezing for 4 months... That was enough to drive me south... |

Location: Central Montana | It is negative 2 here and not quite 10 PM yet tonight. It felt COLD tonight. Thank God there is no wind.
I get a kick out of the people that just have to blanket or sheet their horses if it gets below 50, 45, whatever, that isn't even freezing yet. My "kids" need all the hair they can grow and still got their blankets when it hovered around 10.
40's is still shorts and fip flop weather for a lot of folks around here (not me, I don't wear short usually even when it gets over a 100.) Heck, there were people wearing sandals (flip flops) to work today......................
