oh naughty me !!

You need the backstory to pick it up, jazzy!

It's in the mid-40s F, with no snow on the ground!

Hi folks! Just taking a quick peek. I hope, Ari, you're using ye olde Fahrenheit and not cussin' 40º Celsius ):

I've only got number 2 Jolan and fast running out of time.

And number 1.

Just one definite and one iffy:
1. ATHLETE

so sorry, I hit the return key for a new line, and it posted in error. Ashamed :(

1- ATHLETE anag under the table minus burned
2- L ADDER?
3- AT A LOSS a learner (L) in a toss
4- LIKE NOBODY'S BUSINESS
5- GO AT SUCKER?

OK, I'll contribute my (whisper it) two:
1. One who is active in body or mind works under the table when burned out (7)
A famous jolan subtractive anagram - under the table minus burned to give ATHLETE

3. Stumped by a novice, caught by a lob (2,1,4)
A L (novice) in A TOSS (a lob) to give AT A LOSS for stumped
