winter

[low_delta]

This winter has been nice, at least for the last three weeks. There has been snow on the ground, since it's only been above freezing a couple of days. I'm very happy to look outside and see that bright white snow. It's only been two or three times we had to get out and shovel, and even when we got the six inches, it wasn't a very heavy snow to shovel. Since then, we've had just enough snow to keep it white, rather than grey.

Now, it's going to get cold. I can deal with temps in the single digits, but for the next few days we're going to have below zero at night, and *maybe* above zero in the daytime. It's been clear and windy, which means it gets really cold. I don't like to be out in that. Fortunately, I don't really have to be. I have a car.

I'm so very very glad I'm able to come home and experience this in person.

I think by wednesday, the temps should be back over 5°.

You're such a brat.

I envy you - we haven't had a winter this year, it was 14 Degrees in London last wednesday and that's just not right. The Daffodills are ready to blossom and the mice are running around outside like it's spring. They're predicting a "hard frost" for next week and we may just get some snow but the spirit of winter seems to have turned away from us.

The high today was -3.5°F (-19.7°C). That's too damn cold. But if that's what it takes to have a few weeks of snow and decent winter temperatures, I'll try not to complain.
