This is brutal, beastly cold weather. And, unfortunately, it’s expected to hang around making outdoor life unbearable all week. Looking ahead, it seems as if Friday night should be the coldest of all this week’s cold misery. One good bit of news, temperatures should be considerably better next week. It’s just a matter of existing through this week in order to get there.
Not at all sure of total snowfall over the past week. I measure over 18″ in my backyard. my son measures well over 20″ in his. All I can say is we have WAY too much snow. This is not one of those un-wintry months of January we’ve experienced over the past few years. This one is making a mark in the statistics list. Lucky us.
