Sheesh! My prognosticater is as busted as those at weather.com. The high pressure system pushed those clouds that began to appear late yesterday back south and funneled cold, cold Canadian air into the region. As a result, the temperature this morning is a mere 0.6 degrees. The bubbly weather girl on the Utica station was speaking yesterday of how "warm" the weekend was going to be. I believe she mentioned 40 degrees. (Bill Cosby voice from an early comedy routine/album) R-i-g-h-t!
All right, Utica is 25 or so miles south of here. It's along the Mohawk River,Erie Canal, and the NYS Thruway; and it's several hundred feet lower in elevation than the Bolt Hole so it typically reads a few degrees different (usually warmer) than the cabin, but still.... Checking some Weather Underground stations round and about, I find we are a good 5 degrees colder than those near Utica but almost a full degree warmer than the one just a couple miles away from here. (It's minus 0.9 degrees at that farm which is 3 to 5 miles west of and 300 feet lower than the Bolt Hole.)

6 here but it felt warm because there was no wind at all..
We have 3.9 degrees above, with no wind. Very frosty, though.
