More snow at the Aerie

Well now, things have warmed up a bit here at the Aerie this morning. All the way to 12 degrees! The weather.com quacks are saying we'll get an inch or two of light powdery snow this day--and tomorrow--and maybe the day after as well. In fact, the 10-day forecast window shows 30-50% chance of snow showers EVERY SINGLE FAROOKIN' DAY. Odd that their radar shows now snow showers in the area at the moment because it's certainly coming down pretty heavily. There's an inch of fluff on the deck that explodes whenever a mourning dove comes in for a landing.

The weather.com site also says the temperature is currently 15 degrees while my digital reads 12. The only thing we agree on is an almost total lack of wind--thank goodness. And the high temps will only get to the 20s according to them, while the lows will be back into the single digits later this week.

*Sigh* Maybe we should have looked further south when planing our retirement.

Or maybe not:


Nah, can't take the humidity down south anyway. And the southwest desert heat, while dry, is still way too hot for this old boy.
