80 yesterday 26 this morning. This is typical where we live. When cold fronts approach they suck up all this heat from the Gulf of Mexico. So the temperature rises. If it is an arctic front (what we call a blue norther) the wind shifts to the north and the temperature drops quickly in 15 or 20 minutes. Makes everyone sick.
