Currently 22 degress with an ENE wind of 5.3 mph dropping that down to feeling like 15. Dew Point 12, Humidity 66%, Barometer 30.54, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 7:27 am, Sunset 5:23 pm.  Sunny today with a high only in the upper 20s. E wind 5 – 10 mph.

Partly cloudy overnight with a low of 15 – 20. SE winds 5 – 10 mph.

First real snowfall of the season.  Had a measurement of .01” in the gauge this morning. Not much, but visible here and there. So an official ‘Trace’ on the ground. Just the beginning of what will be a long, long, long, long season for me. Spring slips by, Summer flashes past, and Autumn hurries on, but Winter? That one seems to hang on like a barnacle on a boat bottom.

Got all the winter gear lined up. I guess I’m about as ready as I can be.
