78° in Ochi and 72° in Mandeville.
It's going to be in the 70s until Saturday. That means take out the blankets, breeze out the sweaters - it's freaking cold. Could be in the high 60s tonight.
I can't remember a week with such a forecast in Jamaica. OK laugh!!

(51,076 posts)a balmy 58 degrees at that. This weekend things are going to change. I've got the generator all gassed up with fresh oil, ready for the worse because to me it looks like we're in for some shitty weather. I've got 15 gallons of non ethanol gas as back up. I do this every year and then if I don't have to use it in the generator I can use it in the lawn mower this spring. This year its possible to be a two-fer as when I bought the gas it was 2 bucks a gallon and by summer its going to be at least 3 bucks, bet on it.
