Good morning GH. Well, we had an honest to gosh "Gully Washer" last night. The wind she blew and then the rain fell too. We had a veritable river of water running down the street and sidewalk. We even managed to get a little extra water in the man-cave, albeit nothing serious that the dehumidifier couldn't handle, and of course, the thunder that drove Sugar the Weather Dog into her upstairs hide-e-hole. Let's just say that for the short time that I have been living here, it was a serious blow.
When I got up this AM, I took a few pictures that chronicle the glacial recession that we have experienced over the last few days. I'll just lay them side by side at the end to give the full story. Naturally, no good deed goes unpunished, so the weather forecast is for six to twelve inches of new snow over the next two to three days. This being GH, anything is possible from 0" to 12" and everything in between.
Currently, the temperature on the desktop measurement device is 37 degrees, heading for an expected high of 41. The indoor temperature on the very sophisticated digital display is 69 very comfortable degrees. My professional weather station, that is mounted outside the Weather Window, concurs with the desktop display.
Sugar the Weather Dog is in her downstairs bed, after our foray into the wilds of GH. We both noticed that the snow has basically disappeared all over town. There are a few piles in parking lots, but they would have been gone in a few days if more snow was not on the way.
I had a nice hot cup of tea before we left, so I was fortified for the long journey to the downtown. Sugar was actually dragging by the end, so I think she is experiencing fatigue from yesterday's walk.
I got my dusting done, finally, and now I have to put on my editor's hat for the early afternoon. So, until next time, Ciao.

Same idea |

Snow, what snow? |
