Blistering Cold this Weekend in Tallahassee (and Much of Florida)

He's coming home with us for the weekend. 😊
We went to the Rose Bowl for the National Championship game. It was brutally cold (and windy) where we lived in Georgia, while we were gone. When we drove up to the house, after an all night flying ordeal, I saw the door on the second floor balcony, wide open. Apparently it had not been shut securely and blown open a couple of days before our return. The arctic wind had overcome the heater blowing full blast, and froze the water pipes in the second floor. The water had been running unchecked through the whole house for 2 days. I enjoyed the game, but it cost over $200,000 and 4 months to get my house back in liveable condition.I'm hearing and seeing "teens" this weekend in 850. Post your most extreme stories here. Someone always has a doozie.
It still is. Iguanas are an invasive species. Hopefully they all die.
Too bad it doesn’t kill they pythons off too then.
Sidebar… in case you’d like help with the posting pics thing… it is kind of a pain on here, but the easiest way I’ve found is to go to imgur (app on phone or imgur.com on laptop), set up free account, somehow remember your password along with your 2,538 other passwords for when imgur fails to remember you, upload whatever image you want to post, click on the share or link option (the imgur interface is pretty different on phone vs web), copy the direct link to your image (http…) and then paste that directly into the body of your WC post.
Maybe someone else has an easier method but that’s the most reliable way with fewest steps that I’ve found.
Good luck!
And thanks for the dog-warming.
I've tried that, but I'm willing to give it another try!Sidebar… in case you’d like help with the posting pics thing… it is kind of a pain on here, but the easiest way I’ve found is to go to imgur (app on phone or imgur.com on laptop), set up free account, somehow remember your password along with your 2,538 other passwords for when imgur fails to remember you, upload whatever image you want to post, click on the share or link option (the imgur interface is pretty different on phone vs web), copy the direct link to your image (http…) and then paste that directly into the body of your WC post.

I’ve never had an issue adding text before or after the image, as long as it’s on a completely separate line to avoid any interference/confusion with the URL
I'm also a no animals in the house kind of guy....has anyone ever had the experience of setting dogs up with heat lamps or beds or dog houses etc for cold nights and they ignore them and sleep outside on the ground anyway??!! This has happened to me with multiple dogs lol. It's like they refuse my help.
Current dog situation is much better, I have a climate controlled shop that I put my Australian shepherd in when it's really cold. I do however keep the temp barely above 60 in there, rather than putting him in a warmer area...It seems like he's got to be more comfortable with that thick winter coat.

I just moved from Fargo, ND to Crawfordville see ya in shorts
I can be there in a couple of hours!Supposed to be 23 in the 850 on Saturday night. My extreme story is that we have a neighbor at the river who doesn't allow their dog in the house, even in the cold. We've adopted him while we're there on weekends, but we may not be there this weekend. I'm trying to figure out what I can do about taking care of the pup.
This is Bandit! Hope I did this correctly. We're headed down now to pick him up and bring him home. ❤

Thank you for your help!
Yes, he's a super sweet dog! Loves my dogs and loves us, especially hubby.
He looks like he's from the good dog factory!!!!
The Unsinkable Legend!I can be there in a couple of hours!
He IS a good dog! My dogs were so excited to see him. My youngest Corgi LOVES him and is constantly licking him in the face. He tolerates her well. 😊
From the National Hurricane Center….Lauderdale by the Sea/Pompano Beach for late tomorrow/early Sunday morning….we’re definitely under Iguana Freeze warning..coldest temps here since 2010.
