Rain, Wind and Snow

Yesterday it was cloudy with rain off and on through the day.  It was a bit breezy but in the forties.

I was awakened this morning about four-thirty to the sound of strong winds causing the screen on the bedroom window to rattle.  The house felt colder than it has the past few days.

When I got up later I noticed the snow and the thermometer.  The twenty degree temperature combined with the relentless wind made it feel like winter again.

I am grateful for the moisture and the few calm days of warmth and sunshine.

It feels like spring outside.  The sky is blue.  The sun shines brightly and it is sixty degrees.  This is a perfect weekend.

Temperatures have been warmer this week.  The highs have been in the fifties and today sixty.  The lows are in the twenties and low thirties.

I feel a little like the bears waking from winter's sleep.  It feels so good.

It's Cold Outside

It has been a bit colder this week...windy and fairly warm one day then cold with ice and snow the next.  This morning it was five degrees outside.  The wind was silent and the sun bright.  It looks like it will be a beautiful cold day.

Yesterday it was twelve degrees in the morning, snow during the day and temperatures did not get out of the twenties.  It is that time of year when winter and spring do this amazing dance.

Ken captured these awesome images of the sun rising over fan mountain this week.  I love the magnificence of the skies this time of year.
