This scene still looks EXACTLY the same today (ten days later);
even after two nights of record setting hard freezes around 20 degrees Fahrenheit.
We went from that 20 degrees (mid December weather) a night ago to 75 degrees today.
Tomorrow is supposed to be 85 degrees and August weather... The A/C will "need" to go back on!!! Ugh! The mid 80's will hold tight for the next few days; with lows in the mid to upper 60's. That's Summer weather. I'm no longer sure of what "normal" is, but this weather isn't that. Even the few leaves (that have fallen from some of the other trees) don't look "normal". On the ground, fallen leaves are pulverized, little chips and not full leaves. That's just plain weird.
