Today began with plenty of sun, but has been mixed with periods of clouds.  Temps this morning were in the low teens when I got up and haven’t warmed up much since then.  We knew it would be cold today so we didn’t plan on going out much.  We had a quick snow shower yesterday evening which only dropped half an inch of new snow.  We have 4.5 inches of snow on the ground at this time.  There will be a big warm-up this week so this should all be gone by Monday night.  Most of us are hoping that this is winter’s last hurrah.

Our 3 PM temperature is 18F, the humidity is 62%, and skies are mostly cloudy at this time.  Winds are from the WNW at 9-18 mph, and the wind chill is 12F.  The pressure is 29.83 in and falling and visibility is 11 miles.  Sunrise this morning was at 6:54 AM and sunset will be at 6:39 PM.  Yesterday’s high was 29F and the overnight low was 7F.  Average temps for this date are 40F / 25F.
