"Ice storm in the southern plain is the story that's taking front and center stage. There are now well over 300,000 residents in Texas without power. Today, some more sleet and freezing rain is expected from central and northern Texas on over to western Tennessee. Many of those ice storm warnings in Texas run until 9 a.m., there is hope that temperatures will rise just a bit and will reach the mid 30s later today, changing all of this ice to plane rain, but by now the damage done and still many roads are still impassable. Elsewhere in the southeast, there is still some rain occurring in Louisiana and that will be spreading out into northern Georgia and the Carolinas today too, a chilly rain with temperatures no higher than the 40s. Elsewhere in the country, some bitterly cold air is about to move into the upper Midwest. Temperatures will be averaging zero to ten below in parts of North Dakota and northern Minnesota. Over the next couple of days, this Arctic blast will be reaching the Great Lakes tomorrow, and then the northeast over the weekend. So prepare for that. Across Florida, there are some dense fog advisories out for the Panhandle this morning, but of course it'll be warm across central and southern parts of the sunshine state with highs in the 70s and 80s. The northeast and mid Atlantic states don't look too bad today. Although there will be clouds and showers in Virginia, areas farther to the north will be dry and temperatures would mostly in the 30s and 40s in California dry weather will prevail today, but in the northwest, there could be a couple of showers tonight as a front arrives.

"Babinski has an update first on update on some northern tier states, a bitterly cold Arctic air mash is moving across the northern plain states today. Temperatures across much of eastern North Dakota and in northwestern Minnesota will be near 10° below zero, but winds will make it feel like it's between 30 and 40 below and will be following the progress of this bitterly cold air as it reaches the Great Lakes region tonight and early tomorrow. And finally, Friday, Friday night and Saturday, it'll be impacting much of the northeast, especially New England, already people talking about wind chills of nearly 50 below in Caribou Maine by Friday night. Obviously, cold air causing other problems in other parts of the country still just cold enough for more sleet and freezing rain to occur in Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas and western Tennessee. There are still various ice storm warnings out this morning. They expire during mid morning, there's some hope. At least in cities like Dallas and San Antonio that the temperature could rise into the mid 30s later today, changing this ice over to plane rain, but still most roads are skating rinks, and there are still hundreds of thousands of people who are without power in the lone star state.

Well, you know what? That ends the new segment. It's now time to get to know us. Ray. Yay. Yeah, whether you want to or not, we're going to tell you anyway. All right. Let's see, we recorded the last show. We started on Thursday of last week and ended on Saturday. We had to do a two part because of Internet connection, connectivity issues here. At the new APG headquarters in Roswell, near the beautiful fashionable historic downtown Roswell. Georgia, and then let's see, did I fly? I think I flew, where did I go? I don't remember. Oh, I did a green slip trip. An overnight. I was in Jackson Mississippi. Last week. Did you see the Mississippi? I did not because you have to go a little bit further to the west to see the Mississippi River. But anyway, yeah, I had a good time. It was rainy, cold, weather, so didn't really get out and about from the hotel. It was a nice long layover there, but we just were pretty much confined. To the hotel, but it was a nice co-pilot. I was flying with a young man at the start of his airline career. And I am the old guy who is getting very close to the end of his. The grumpy old captain. I was like, is that your grandfather? You're flying with her? Yeah. But anyways, really nice guy. And what were you asking Liz? Oh, I was doing a lot of editing, yes. I had to do that. Well, at least give you something to do to one of the ways the time. Hopefully you sat in the bar and put your headphones on. Well, I don't believe that the clothes between like two and four, so I was in my room doing the editing at that time. Anyway, it doesn't matter. I did a lot of singing again over the weekend. My voice is almost back to 100%. It was a very a lot of singing and a lot of rehearsing. And then, of course, coming up here on Saturday. New Year's Eve, I'm gonna be singing in four. I mean, sorry, not new year's Christmas Eve. Thank you, Liz. And Christmas Eve, I'm going to sing in a, I think, for four or 5 masses on Christmas Eve day and for the midnight mass. Anyway, looking forward to that. I always enjoy the music. Are you singing on Christmas Day too? Christmas Day, I might be singing in the morning, the ladies that are doing the 7 30. Mass 7 30 a.m., we're hoping that if I weren't doing anything that I might be able to join them. So we'll see. I'm going to be doing the midnight mass, the night before, and then maybe come back here and get a few hours. We'll stay there. I might as well just throw in a few beers. And then I start singing at 7 30. Now one thing that's happening here in the United States right now, in fact, tonight between now and the wee hours of the morning, a cold front is coming down, all that does awful Canadians are sending us this very, very cold air. And it is giving you the cold shoulder. Oh yeah, more than that. The temperature here in Roswell, Georgia, and northern Georgia. As opposed to get, well, with the wind chill factored in, it's going to be like minus 4° -5°, Fahrenheit, which I'm not sure exactly how that equates to incentive grade, but I think it's like -20 21, something like that. 36° of frost. I think we understand that it's going to be pretty chilly. It's going to be really, really cold. And I'm kind of, I was telling Nick and Liz before we started recording today's show that I actually went out before we started the recording. I went to the storage unit and got my little propane camp stove because this apartment that I'm in is 100% electric and I'm thinking, you know, if sometimes when it gets really cold, the electrical grid goes down or trees, you know, freeze and fall over and take down power lines. I'm thinking, if we lose electricity in this place, I'm going to be. Done for. I'm not sure how long I'll be able to stay in here because it's going to be so ding dang cold. The ambient temperature. That's what I'm thinking. But just in case I went ahead and got this camp stove, I went to public's grocery store and got a couple of cans of stuff that I could open up and heat up on my propane stuff. So you can make sniff the propane and then I could do that. Feel better. Actually, I guess I said propane, but I think it's like a propane butane mix. I'm not sure exactly what it is. Anyway, it's in the car.

But we saw some lighter than that this year if rush out and you put fertilizer to it starts producing using stored energy. If you get that frost in it sets that back asked to start over. It may not have the energy reserves to do that. One thing that you can do in the fall to store those carbohydrates that it that the turf uses to green up in the spring is a good potassium application. Fertilizers are three numbers. A ten ten ten is ten percent nitrogen. Ten percent phosphorus ten percent potassium look for something in the fall with very little to no nitrogen. A little phosphorus is okay. Hi n number a good potassium application the foul can help grasses produce that colorado they need to go into dorm and have those stored energy to come out in the spring and then really wait till about may so. You're good no threat of anymore. For allston you can start to make that nitrogen application. A good blended right fertilizer. Unless you have some issues and you can go into a more higher right nitrogen to push that grass along one two. Maybe three applications on bermuda grass. During the summer i liked to see one application of nitrogen fertilizer on zoysia grass on established home long. Obviously we do a lot more than that here in the farm because we're trying to grow and produce it but really trying to stick to around one or two applications on zoysia cut that off no nitrogen after july fourth says simple date to remember july fourth no more nitrogen on your social long because it increases the risk of disease in the foul and heaven that nitrogen there as a nutrient source for that disease if it was to become active.

But Stone Mountain is when they're really stuck out in my mind. So, Mike what? What? What made you write about that of all things? Well, I give some public relations work for the Georgia Golf Trail and and the founder Doug Collins works and this has been on my list of items to do for a couple of years and And the best time to go up. There is Brad Summer and early fall, So actually in late July, I took a few days and flew to Atlanta when in the car and, uh, get a little tour of the North Georgia did start at Stone Mountain, which has got two great golf courses Stone Moss and Lake Box. And there's Two golf courses and the northern mountainous part of Georgia, which is quite mountainous. Many people are unaware how mountainous and hilly northern Georgia is and I believe the course of Sky Valley and Brasstown Valley and down at Innsbruck, which is near Helen, Georgia. Three great courses. Actually, two of the courses are actually in the valley of the mountains, and his book is actually is within the hill. They call it Alpine golf and it is true. What sets these courses apart. What are some of the things that golfers would, uh, be looking forward to as far as the courses themselves. Well, Stone Mountain. I will start with. Let's start with, you know Stone mounds a good place to start since you're probably flying into Atlanta. And on the eastern part of the city. You've got this state park. There's a lot of state parks have great golf courses in Georgia. More than just a stone Mountain. Um, wonderful conditions. The scenery is just magical. And you don't realize you're so close to such a major Bessa Pollen area as you are to Atlanta when they're stone Mountain. As I said, in my story, you should begin your journey and stone Mountain and finish your journey and so on Mountain so I played late March to begin with. And then I went up the road to Sky Valley, which is the Almost actually, you have to go into North Carolina. To get back into Georgia because the Sky Valley it's way up there in the northeast section of state, and you're totally surrounded by hills and all sides and back to so remote. Your fill your cellphone doesn't work up there. Most people distracted by by a phone call when you're playing golf Sky Valley. Yeah, that's well, That's a good thing. Yeah, really. Most people want to. You know, when they hear Augusta when they hear golf in Georgia. They think Augusta National are the courses in a lot of ways. Terrain wise. Similar to Augusta or completely different. Well, of course, that I played at the very end. When I made my way back down towards Atlanta, I went west of the city to a little Caricola, Villa Rica. And there they have a golf course with a very usual name called the Frog. I think when you look at the, uh, the layout of the property from the air, it looks like a frog, but truly The frog, especially late in the afternoon when the insects are European. It's a lot of lolly times everywhere. You think you're at Augusta national ending listing of the patrons of the CBS cameras, it is merely Similar and the golf courses in tremendous shape. I You know it's too bad in some respects the body. Jones didn't go to Villa wicket to build Augusta National because that could have been a piece of property that he could have turned into a great championship golf course. That's amazing When you think about it, I guess one problem that I would maybe be concerned about from a personal level. What about the bugs in the South? Are they prevalent in Georgia? On your Swing through the northern part of part of Georgia. The big, totally honest, I don't remember seeing one does all day in a gate. It's uh, It's a little cooler up there because the elevation and it's just a refreshing escape. There's Nothing negative about being in north Georgia. It's a fact that sometimes yourself one doesn't work. But that's good, because that's the point of the escapist too. Uh, too long in the peace and tranquility and Brasstown Valley again, it's in the Valley. Totally surrounded by the mountains. There was one point in my round behind the 11th green. And I was playing by myself and I just stopped. I didn't hear any nearby cars. I didn't hear any any human beings. I just heard Mother nature and when blowing and it was like Oh, my word.
