We were all set to leave today for Panama City Beach, Florida, where we hoped to arrive by Friday night and enjoy a respite from all this cold we've had so far this month. It is less than one degrees right now and a high of 6 degrees forecast for tomorrow, but a veritable heat wave of 20 degree for Friday.
This cold did not stop us from leaving. What stopped us was the winter storms hitting Tennessee and the mid south. We go through Memphis and they have lots of ice with warming and freezing until Friday morning.
We might still have gone down as it is supposed to be sunny and in the 70s at PCB this weekend, but next weekend looks most like 50s and rain.
Yes, its going to be about 20-30 degrees warmer there, but that is a long drive for that little bit more warmth.
We had to cancel last year for the same reason.
One of these days.
