Hello and welcome. It is Eric Erickson here. I am back from vacation. Those of you who are back in the office, glad to have you with me. The phone number, if you want to call in 877-9-7-9-7-9-7-3-4-25. You know, it's one of those crazy things. For those of you keeping up with the weather in the southeast, where I am,

it was 70, 80 degrees on New Year's Day, and the temperatures have plummeted. All up and down

the eastern seaboard now, it's their snow down to the northern suburbs of Atlanta. And not where I

am, I'm south of Atlanta, And not where I am.

I'm south of Atlanta and it's blue sky and cold.

We got a lot of rain, but no snow.

My kids are very disappointed.

But everybody now has runny nose and scratchy throat and a cough.

And everyone up and down the eastern sea border of the United States like,

do I have COVID?

Do I have COVID?

My wife and I course, you know, we apparently, allegedly, I am told I spent most of Tuesday in an emergency room. One day, maybe I'll remember.

And do we have COVID?

Do we have COVID?

And nope, everybody's just, it's the weather change.

Everybody is dealing with it.

I'm having to hit my mute button repeatedly throughout the show as I break out into a

cough and it is totally, it's just allergies and sinus from all the weather changes.

Now, speaking of all of that, there are a couple of things you need to know here.

I am told very reliably, I will put it, it made national headlines over the weekend.

The metro area for Atlanta, Georgia, major counties are joining a bunch of counties in Virginia, New York, Illinois, Michigan, and several other places in not going back to school this week.

Now, there's a difference, though, from what I'm told in the Metro Atlanta area, it's just for this week, allegedly.
