  3. The Pomeroy Academia Covered Bridge has always been a part of my life--from childhood photography trips, to sneaking cigarettes at night as a teen, to holding a seniors' reunion picnic there, two summers ago, with two dear friends.

  4. #US - #Farmers sound alarm as rare weather phenomenon threatens staple crops: 'It's an all-hands-on-deck deal'

    Story by Leslie Sattler, February 4, 2026

    "A brutal freeze gripped Florida over the weekend. It forced fruit and berry growers into all-night efforts to save their harvests from frost damage, reported AccuWeather.

    What's happening?

    "Temperatures fell to the 20s and 30s across the central and southern portions of the state. At those temperatures, crops can suffer harm within a short window.

    "Growers ran water over their fields after dark. Though it sounds backward, spraying crops with water actually protects them. Ice forming on plants releases small amounts of heat, keeping the fruit warmer than the surrounding air.

    " 'It's an all-hands-on-deck deal,' said Matt Joyner, CEO of Florida Citrus Mutual. 'Family gets recruited. Everybody gets recruited to go out and help in preparation.'

    "Joyner noted that growers haven't faced cold this severe since 2010.

    "Plant City orange grower Trevor Murphy said his trees sat in sub-28-degree air for six-plus hours on back-to-back nights. He's already spotting damage and believes many of the young trees he planted this winter won't survive.

    " 'Coldest and longest duration of cold I've had since I've been growing oranges,' Murphy told AccuWeather.

    "AccuWeather projects that 8% to 10% of unharvested oranges may be ruined. Another cold stretch looms this weekend."

  5. It was above freezing for the first time in days yesterday. It was cold, but worth it. The Tye has broken through the ice in places, but others it remains iced over.

    What's the coldest weather you've ridden in? I think 27 is about my coldest, but I didn't love it.
