Good evening, Mooch...it has been in the low 40s and RAINING for 2 and 1/2 days. Water and ice everywhere. Tonight is supposed to drop back in the mid 20s and make ice in even more spaces. I HATE THIS WARM WEATHER IN WINTER!
Any really exciting edits lately?

I feel like a wimp. It’s raining outside & I can’t take it.
I’m working on the library newsletter right now. Much of the coverage will be devoted to Hurricane Sandy.

My Weatherbug says 21

This reminds me of February 2 years ago, when it hit 3o F.

Oh no, JJ....now you've got the warms. Prudhoe is in a Stage 3 storm today. No movement unless necessary and only behind a leader piece of equipment.

YIKES!! You are gonna be cold.
My street is solid ice covered in puddled water. Last night it stayed in the upper 30s, so the main roads, which were dry before this warm spell, were just rain wet and sloppy. Tonight is supposed to be in the 20s. I’m hoping the high winds that have started, which I hate, will dry up some of the standing water.
Stay safe on your way to work.

Good afternoon, Arrowhead...((HUGS))
Neighborhoods roads were REALLY bad, but the high winds went long enough to dry some of them main roads before the temps dropped into the 20s.
Stay warm.
