I'm in NC so I wouldn't know. Good stuff though.
Finally getting to have a smoke! About to pack a bowl of Quiet Nights in this Savinelli Quandale that I finished fixing last night. The tenon was WAAAAAY too tight for the mortise and split the shank wide open. Glued it, sanded it down, re-stained it, banded it, filed/sanded the tenon down & buffed it up. It's a little dark, but that's the only stain I had on hand so. ?
At least it's useable now.

Amphora Burley Blend in an AKB Lattice Cherrywood Meerschaum carved by Tekin.
SAV 140 in a 3/4 bent Mastro de Paja.
Just passing the half way mark on this bowl of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in a smooth straight late 1970s Charatan Special 4148DC Reg. No. 203573 pot with a black double comfort vulcanite stem. Got much of my walking in, but the weather isn't helping out.
Mississippi Mud in a cob. Bought a 4oz test tin to see if I'd like it. I do. I figured it was worth a try after discovering I like Ten Russians.
2013 Capstan in a Savinelli Zulu. This and a Manhattan are marking the end of a hellacious work week.
That's explaining, not complaining. After seeing the new unemployment numbers, I'm very thankful to have a job I've been able to do remotely since March.

Cult Conspiracy, in a stellar little GBD Autumn Gold nosewarmer from good old Dave Neeb. 
Grainger and Samuel Gawith Lakeland Dark (10%) from 2018 in a Ryan Alden billiard. 
Ate a mediocre navel orange, and am now smoking year 2014 HU Makhuwa in a straight sandblasted black billiard 2013 PSF POY Kaywoodie with an amber colored lucite tapered stem. Have enough for one more bowl.
I think I've seen it once or twice it in the specialty soda section of a grocery store or liquor store here in the SF Bay Area, but not too often. I enjoyed it a few times while traveling through Carolina, but have never had the Holiday version.
Now smoking Solani 656 Aged Burley Flake in a Peterson Newgrange Spigot.
For 2020, that's not too bad
Friday night is planned, have some Lane L-77, and some Cult Abacus. Going to sit out for a while with my Rossi and my Savinelli
Mid-late 19th cent. unknown maker with engraved mount and amber stem + Robert McConnell SCOTTISH BLEND:-
Now smoking Iwan Ries British Medium in a 2002 Ser Jacopo Delecta Fatta A Mano R1 sandblast Rhodesian with a smooth extension at the shank with a military mount and a black acrylic tapered stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Plum pudding reserve with some black coffee. Enjoy your night!
