Weather Update

A.D. 2008 November 10 might have been the first day in the winter of A.D. 2008/2009 that the maximum temperature did not exceed 0 degrees Celsius. I say "might" because I didn't get home until about 15:30, and it was 0 degrees and cooling at that point. I'm not going to save the date because it was just too close to call...

In any case, we awoke to our second snow accumulation of the season this morning. It wasn't much - somewhere around half of a centimeter - but it sure was pretty. Almost all of the snow is gone now, but the ground is still covered just three miles south of us. We ran some errands down there this evening, and some locations had as much as two inches. As it was very wet snow, it stuck to everything, turning the world into a winter wonderland... You have to love this time of year!

Days with snow cover: 04
Days with complete snow cover: 00
Total snowfall: 001 centimeter
