It didn't get as cold last night as the forecast predicted, only about 36 right now as opposed to 26. The wind is still blowing hard. I had several gusts yesterday in the 45 mph range. We got our first snowflakes too. Snowed really hard a couple of times for a few minutes, but the ground is way too warm yet for it to stick. Soon. The next few nights are supposed to be down in the 20s (as was last night). That should stiffen the ground up a little.
