We are rapidly melting here. The predicted snow storm blew in and around us and left. The days are warming up to around 37-40* then cooling down to 10-12* at night.
This is a bigger January thaw than I originally thought we were going to have. I really can’t decide if this is good or not. Snow means water, water is the lifeblood of life..hummm.
Of course, if the snow stays in our mountains, I could handle not having snow down here. The frost is deep, deep in the ground so we will not be thinking of spring for at least 8-10 more weeks. (It is January I remind myself daily)
Then this morning — during morning chores I saw it! A sun dog—a sure sign winter is still here and colder weather is on its way!
