When we were up there in Feb 2010, it was in the teens at night, 20's during the day. Snow flurries on PIR Day, but not bad. We are S FL people so not used to the cold, but it really wasn't that bad since we were dressed warmly! If windy, that wind off the Lake can be quit chilly though, so layers are suggested! There is some walking to do on RTC and you want to be dressed for it.....I wore boots/nice jeans/layers w/jacket and was fine!
Good Morning! I heard that those up for PIR weekend right now would be waking up to temps below zero this morning....YIKES!
Have a great weekend!
Good Morning everyone!! We received a letter from our SR...he has requested envelopes, that was his last one. He seems like he is doing well and excited!! Can you guys believe 12 more days? I pray our SRs do well during Battlestation 21. I hope to get the call this weekend what day he will be going thru that evolution. I love him so much & I know all of the SRs are working so hard to achieve this very important goal!! Hooyah Navy
mindyeus, :)
