Here we go some more!
Back into the fridge

It was another lovely day here at the Aerie. The sun was shinning and the temperature rose to 44 degrees on the deck. But Mother Nature will make us pay for the two consecutive days of above freezing weather. You see, we've had our January Thaw and from now until well after the Super Bowl we may never see the temperature above 25 degrees. Even as I write the wind has started howling and the mercury has begun its descent. The low tonight--according to weather.com--will be 20 degrees while tomorrows HIGH will be only 19. (Hey, I didn't make the prediction, I'm just reporting it At least AccuHunch makes more sense calling for a low of 18 and a Saturday high of 20.)

There may also be some snow flurries--or maybe not. They can't seem to agree as to whether the system moving through will move to the north, south or even right down I80 to the Atlantic. I think they are now saying it will slide to our south impacting the Mid-Atlantic States. Or maybe it will head north up along the St. Lawrence. In any event, the snow that was in the forecast here for tonight (1-2 inches) seems to have been downgraded to only a few flurries.

Oh, and tomorrow night it may reach 0 degrees again.

Dammit! Anybody find those missing sun spots yet?

I swear, if ole Punxsutawney Phil sees his shadow on February 2 it may well be the last thing he ever sees! Ya know what I mean? Two more months of this sh*t is about six weeks too much.
