Ol’ Man Winter has arrived

If my memory serves me correctly, I beleive we received our first touch of snow on October 6.  Each day since then, we have received snow flurries.

Day	Forecast	Description
Today        11 Oct	Flurries  High: -2°    Low: -9°	Day: Cloudy with flurries. High -2C, humidity 35%.  Winds  at  10 to 15 mph.
		Night: Clear skies. Low -9C. Winds ENE at 5 to 10 mph.

 

We are also finally  catching up with darkness, losing minutes each day of our sun:(  I actually don’t mind the darkness.  The night sky provides the great aurora viewing and the sheer beauty of the moon.
