From some bus drivers who posted on a Facebook page, the fires started about that time, and got worse later into the night. Not sure how they're doing, but traffic on I-80 appears to be moving well per Google Maps, so they might be out/contained.
Impressive cold this morning, not in how low it got, but how low it got without any snowcover. We are down to +7 here in Tamaqua, which is the lowest temp of the winter for my backyard station. I suppose the tulips (the parts out of the ground anyway) took a good hit.
That's one of my problems. I hate dressing for it. I love the free feeling of shorts and t-shirts, not the restricted feeling of layering up and/or wearing heavy, bulky coats.
Six years ago today.
I shovel the yard for the dog so I don't have a million land mines to clean up come spring time. Check out the size of the snow piles. By comparison, our dog is a 60 lb Black Lab and the wooden fence is 6 feet high...
Well, it must have held together somewhat. Woke up to a coating on cars and the grass. I'd venture to guess not much more than a tenth of an inch, but it did snow overnight.
Maybe, but I almost wish we were getting about 4" of snow before the cold hits. The tulips are about 1-2 inches out of the ground, and a covering of snow would protect them somewhat from the harsh cold.
