    It actually didn't feel all that bad here this afternoon. The wind died down and the sun was bright, and it felt warmer than it did yesterday - even tho the thermometer said it was colder. It's 16F right now with a wind chill of 7F.

    It was 8 degrees this morning at 7am & got to a high of 24 this afternoon with a breeze too. Tonight and tomorrow are to be cold but not as bad as last night and today. I tell you we did not waste any time with the little dogs outside... did our business quickly and back inside.

    It was warmer today, and we had some nice snow. Yes, for those who live in more southern climes, there is such a thing as "too cold to snow." It's back down to 11°F /-12°C but at least it is a positive number!

    Today is a balmy 22°F! Every trace of yesterday's birdseed was gone she I put more out today, no wondering why that was!

    Still, I am hoping it stays cold enough that Monday's anticipated storm is snow, not sleet or ice. I would much much rather shovel snow than push slush! and would rather deal with slush than ice!

    6°F /-14°C - good night for hot tea for sure! We had rain on Sunday, so now the back yard is all ice wherever puddles formed. Frozen ground does not absorb much water!

    It's actually normal winter right now. 30s in the evening and night, occasional drops to the 20s, with high 40s and 50s in the day. It is windy though.

    It has been snowing all day here - since yesterday afternoon, actually, and is now about 14°F (-10°C) which is warmer than yesterday! The birds are very busy with the seed I put out!

    From earlier today:

    Monday mourning doves
    Shelter from the storm on our
    Dormant bicycles

    The hush of snowfall
    Is disturbed when I open
    My blinds, let light in

    Apologizing
    I set out generous plates
    Bird seed offering

    Now they feast again
    I sip my cooling tea, peace
    On a stormy day
    I've Been Frosted
