Blah! Humbug!

Yesterday, when we went tree shopping, the temperatures were in the upper 30s/low 40s. There was an occasional rain shower but nothing much. After dark, the temperatures dropped into the 20s and some wind driven sleet arrived followed by snow. That didn't amount to much either as we only had about an inch of white stuff on the ground this morning.

The temperatures have slowly crept into the low 30s today but the ceiling is right around 2000 feet meaning we've been ensconced in a cloud bank for much of the day. There's no precipitation to speak of.... I mean, if it were to precipitate, it would have to fall out of the clouds, right? And we are, well, IN the clouds so anything that were to fall would be...if you'd pardon the expression...beneath us.

So, it's just a foggy, raw, dreary day at the Aerie.

So what you're saying is, you're in the thick of things. Could be worse, though - heavy snows, ice storms, power outages. Stay warm, folks, and tell Terry we're all impressed by her embroidery skills. Those ornaments are nice!
