A Very Cold, Blustery Day . . . .

This is not a good day to be outdoors.  Not only do we have very cold temperatures, but the wind is terrible.  Wind chills could fall to -15F this afternoon.  There are many lake effect snow squalls happening, especially on the west side of the state.  Some of the expressways are closed due to accidents, and in these freezing temps, that is not a good thing.

Our morning was grey with snow cover of about an inch.  The sun has come out this afternoon and most of the snow is now gone.  If not for the wind, it would be quite pleasant outdoors.  We aren’t expecting much precipitation over the next few days, although we have another cold mass of air heading our way which will bring high temps only in the teens later this week.

Wet With Falling Temperatures . . . .

We reached 60°F this morning, but now temperatures are quickly falling and we have overcast skies and drizzle.  Winds are very strong, making being outdoors very uncomfortable.  The flu is rampant in our state and my husband and I got our flu shots today.  I usually don’t get one, but since I’m getting older, I thought I’d get one this year. Our 1:30 PM temperature is 41°F, the humidity is 82%, and winds are from the west at 20-30 mph,…
