    This has been the strangest November in a long time! Earlier this month it was in the 90s for a week and now it's down in the 60s during the day and freezing at night. The rain has been strange too, the storms come through way faster than normal and pour for 5-10 minutes and then the sun comes back. Oh well, I heard from a friend in Canada that it was -30c, so I won't complain about +40f.

    I'm surprised it is that cold down in southern california...I am in Northern california so we do get the freeze sometimes not very often though. Looks like I messed up my door in my car...wonder what happens to people who don't have a garage? I think it just needs a new fuse its happened before.

    It's been pretty normal for us! The snow held off longer than usual!

    During the day we never come close to freezing temps, but at night it gets cold enough to freeze over. The mountains north of us had a hard freeze last night and this morning, but we just had the light layer of ice last night. I'm inland enough tucked between mountains, so we get their nice cold drafts coming down.

    I'm in Connecticut and we have been having very unusual weather over here too. In the day it's close to 65F and at night it has been dipping into the 20's. The only time I don't like the cold is when it's below zero...that's when I will actually put a coat on, otherwise I go without, I guess I like the cold and I think when your born and raised in the cooler weather you just get used to it, either that or we have thicker blood.

    We keep a de icer spray then spray it around the door. We also never lock our cars at night. If the locks freeze, it is hard for even the spray to work. Another tip - do not put the emergency brake on unless you have to over night. They will freeze up too. When I had a standard, I would leave it in gear.

    Now I understand better why we have abnormaly hot temperatures here! It's above 10 degrees everywhere in the country, my parents even have 20 degrees now! I have heard that snow is melting in the mountains and they could not open the ski pistes as they usually do around the end of November.
    And last week Tuesday I had ice on my car in the evening

    I am like that also...at least compared to other people here I do like the cold weather.
