This to has passed. Yesterday it was 14.1 degrees at the early AM on our electronic reporting weather doda. It sends a signal from outside to inside and is displayed on Judie's desk. It is pretty reliable until the sun hits it and it heats up. But once back into the shadows reverts to its accurate reporting.
By noon yesterday the cold snap was broken, the winds were still up a bit and it was sort of brutal outside. By late afternoon, it was well above freezing at a toasty warm 37 degrees. And that meant more of the remaining ice/snow/sleet disappeared into the soil. Really the snow and sleet went away early due to the solar heating but the ice remained in spots here and there out of the direct sun light.
Today we will hear the gutters ringing with the remaining melt off water. What melted yesterday froze last night in nice slick spots. But that too will go away today. The temperature will be well above freezing day and night.
By tomorrow it is predicted that we will see 70 degrees F. And that will be most welcome.
But once again, good old "Global Warming" shows it was a colossal scam while we were shivering in out homes. The great inventor of the Internet, Al Gore, has had his reputation further tarnished. That fat fellow is living in humongous houses and flitting around in a jet, and tells us to conserve and stop making green house gases. He is excess green house gas in and of himself. Sure glad he was not elected to be President of the US.
Well, duh! What do you think trees and grasses need to convert to Oxygen, well it is carbon dioxide - the culprit green house gas so hated by Al Gore and his cronies. The meeting in Europe fell apart and the world recognized the silliness of it all. And if we did not have carbon dioxide we would be living on a big chunk of ice. Let nature take its course!
Hope everyone warms up.
