I miss autumn, and the first snowfall. But Jan-Mar, I am always thankful for nice warm Singapore.x9200 wrote: ↑Sun, 30 Oct 2022 6:59 pmYes, it's always good to spend some money on a decent battery but things like this may happen. A week or so with temperatures below -20C combined with short commuting distance would kill most of the batteries.jalanjalan wrote: ↑Sat, 29 Oct 2022 2:40 pmAnd remember to plug car in before going to bed or good luck next morning. I remember someone from a warm climate seeing the extension cables trailing across the yard and commenting "Wow you have electric cars!" This was in the 80s.
Having said that I am probably one of the very few who really misses frosty winters (and other seasons) and not so much appreciates heat and humidity of Singapore. In that respect I am probably in a wrong place.

It’s not so South that it’s in Florida but traditionally considered a “Southern” state.
The first time I saw his state on the map, I was not convinced it was “South” but a bit closer to the middle. There were snowy winters in hubby’s childhood but recent years, the snow has been erratic.

Sounds a lot like my part of the woods in the US. MD & Virgina. We've had our fair share of Blizzards over the years and while MD is a split Northern/Southern state, Virginia is considered a Southern State. I actually remember snow drifts one winter that were as high as the bottom of the roofline in some areas.MOCHS wrote: ↑Mon, 31 Oct 2022 4:58 pmIt’s not so South that it’s in Florida but traditionally considered a “Southern” state.
