After almost a week of excellent fall weather here in St. Louis (mid to upper 70's and sunny), the gods of the north are finally beginning to unleash a bit of winter on our asses. I left work today at about 7 PM and it was breezy but still about 72 degrees outside. I was even driving home on the highway with the windows down, at night, in November, with shorts and short sleeves on. Once I got off the highway in the county I felt the wind start to get a bit colder, but I left the windows down anyway. By the time I pulled into my driveway I was almost shivering. I checked
Weather.com when I got inside and came to find out that the mercury had dropped 20 plus degrees in less than 10 minutes. Don't you just love weather here in the Midwest?
Update: The high here yesterday was 81 degrees (a new record), less than 16 hours later the temperature had dropped 42 degrees and was all the way down to 38.
