It's been a strange one




Remember this?  The Snow Globe!
Now it looks like this.


The big patches out by the trees are standing water.
There was water standing in a lot of places in the back yard before the snow came, we had a wet December so the ground was saturated.  The snow storm started off as a steady rain.  There have been three more snows but none of any serious depth.

Then there was the deep freeze, actual temperatures below 0F and wind chills down to -30F!
There was a short Ice event--A skating rink-poor Quinn went sliding!
One night of rain!  The puddles began showing up.
Now we have dense fog advisories!
Rain to begin after midnight tonight and go for 24 hours or so, I'm expecting all the snow to disappear with that and the puddles will get larger so I might be living in a swamp! Or there might be flood advisories!

But, Hey!  It's to be in the 50'S F  (11C) by the end of the month!

I wonder what February will bring?

  4. We're experiencing heavy fog also. Hopefully you'll be able to get in and out of your home okay. Do you have waders?

  7. I can’t imagine temperatures that cold. Let’s hope it warms up and dries out fairly quickly.
