They nailed the forecast
Four inches of fine, powdery snow fell overnight. I shovelled the walk when Karl and I walked down the driveway in the dark. It is still snowing, but it is only 10F. The snow is so fine and light, it is hard to shovel as it wants to fall off the shovel before I’m ready.
Bob stood on the front porch and looked like he might be having second thoughts about going further, but after some thought he proceeded on his morning rounds as usual.
It is cold enough for the bear dog to use his pillow-bed but not yet cold enough to require the nose be covered with the tail.
It appears NOAA nailed the forecast. It is calm here in the mountain wind shadow but the town weather shows winds from the northeast at 20 mph, gusting to 38 and a wind chill of -10F.
Snowshoes are ready for our lunchtime walk. Maybe it will warm up to 15 by then.
