It was warm enough today at 1:00-ish, 22 degrees I think, that I forgot my gloves at home. Not pleasant coming home a half hour ago, but I made it. FWIW to anyone who needs them-Menards on Broadway and 51 still has tons of ice scrapers and roof rakes. ---

Maybe 55-60 in San Fran. We had a few days a few weeks ago of just-below-freezing temps. Joe ---

55 F today for a high. No word on the snakes. ---

Here’s a good one just for you: [Bangkok: Land of Hot Dogs and Chilly Soldiers](http://www.independent.co.uk/travel/asia/bangkok-a-land-of-hot-dogs-and-chilly-soldiers-1401590.html). 😃 Excerpt: “But while Britain is blasted by Arctic winds, the Thai notion of ‘winter’ is somewhat comical. Consider the dinner table I shared one evening with six Thai army officers in the northern hills, when the night-time temperature was a balmy 18C. These tough-looking military men baulked at this terrifying cold, adorning themselves in jumpers, scarves and woolly gloves. I sat beside them – slightly provocatively, perhaps – in T-shirt and shorts.” ---
