Brandie Tarvin - Wednesday, January 3, 2018 9:34 AMWe don't turn off our AC until about mid-December and then it's back on by the end of February. Our attic traps a lot of heat.
Hehe not this year. I was in Orlando in early December. We were in the pool on December 8th and the next day it was really chilly. We had to wear hoodies our entire time at Disney and it wasn't really enough clothing most of the time but I wasn't buying jackets for four people at Disney either. We just had to walk faster. 😛

I suppose it might have meant that the park was a little quieter at least? I'm sure there were people that were less inclined to go to Disney as it was a little chilly outside. 🙂

Just spent a business day prototyping a partition-switch mechanism to improve the performance of a weekly data feed of 50M rows into a 12,000,000,000 row table. It takes ten hours. Most of this time is rebuilding the indexes, which they disable before the load. The process duration of the new mechanism is under ten minutes, two minutes of which is rebuilding the indexes in the switch table.
"Do you want some help implementing this?" "No thanks. It happens on Saturdays. We'll get around to it."
The existing process has failed for the last four Saturdays, io timeouts.
I'll get me coat.

My car *JUST* starts warming up by the time I get home or get to work, I'm just happy tomorrow I work from home...
Although, tomorrow afternoon I've got to go to clean out some trash from a garage (unheated, of course,) so that's going to be...
Fun...
20 below and you might be amazed at some new sounds your car can make.
Enough ice to start driving out to go fishing. And finally warm enough that the beer is slushy, not frozen solid.
Has to be tough in Florida - snow down there is bad, but a coating of ice too - ouch!
Even if you know how to drive in the stuff, you will be likely surrounded by the clueless.
Good day to work from home if that's an option.

A properly installed attic fan will save you oodles on air conditioning,.

The worst thing right now is, I think I might need a new battery, the car is NOT enjoying itself when I go to start it...
I recall a story from many years back, of a northern transplant to Atlanta. It was his turn to drive the carpool, after it had snowed the night before (maybe an inch or less.) Gets to the first house, the passenger comes out in their PJs and robe asking what the heck he was doing there, that it had snowed and the whole city was shut down.
As for driving in this stuff, even around here (Detroit) it seems like people forget how to drive in snow over the summer, and some don't ever seem to remember how...

Get that snow amnesia here in Colorado as well. Sometimes it happens between snow storms since the snow doesn't hang around long most of the time in the city.

Hah. We've got attic fans. The regular one and the super-special "in the garage draws 'cool' air from the outside into the attic" one the SO had installed a few years back.
Guess what? Florida doesn't HAVE cool air during the spring / summer / fall.
Of course, after the second fan was installed, the in-house temperature dropped by 4 degrees and the AC unit stopped working like a work-a-holic ready to have a coronary. So it did good for us.

I remember the one time it snowed in South Carolina when I lived there. Only about 2 inches. Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, on the road as I drove to work. I had keys to the workplace, so let myself in, turned off the alarm, logged into all the systems and waited. No customers, no co-workers. No one until about 90 minutes later (who came in looking for snow plows of all things). Finally, about 2.5 hours later, the boss comes in and everyone else straggles in AFTER the snow had melted.
Boss wanted to know what I was doing in so early. Me, I wanted to know what was so bad about 2 inches of snow that no one could make it in on time.

Even better then would have been if you drove some sort of sports car.
