From Out Of The West

GENTLE BREEZES  --  NOT!
Scudding Clouds & Rustling Trees
magical disappearance of snow
..
-------
.. It started at about 4:00 AM. It was 35° F by 5:00 AM. by 11:00 AM the 10" hard snow pack on our streets, (reserved for snowmachine travel,) was just so much slush. The winds aloft were variable between 80 mph and 140 mph. Temperature in the village at 1:30 PM was above 46° F. It continues to blow.
.. The trails to our neighborhood fishing spots are mucky with mud and slush  -  suspended on the surface by the frozen ground. The fish are possessed of a friendly demeanor and dancing with the goo-covered brave souls at the water's edge.
.. Rain and some wet snow for the Sabbath. Get out the Seal Dry Waders.
