We have quite a bit of sun today but strong winds are still an issue.  The warm-up will begin tomorrow and it will be very welcome.  Yesterday was very blustery with wind gusts up in the 40 mph range and intermittent snow squalls.  Today isn’t quite as bad but still much too windy for comfort.  At least we are seeing the sun.  I’ve noticed that the day seems to be going by much slower on standard time and I’m wishing that we could stay on it all year.  I hate the switching.
