Very cold again.
Going to have a nice quiet night.
God bless everybody.

Sweet dreams! I recently had a dream I was with both my parents, and it was so real and such a blessing.
That sounds like such a wonderful dream. You are blessed with that.
Monday is looking a lot better, weather wise.
Yes, looking forward to it.
In these parts, “winter” starts at Thanksgiving and ends, hard stop, on Valentine’s Day. However, this year, the cold weather, or at least southern Arizona’s version of cold weather, started noticeably earlier than Thanksgiving, and it has been cloudier and cooler than usual, pretty much ever since. Yesterday, I was able to take a bike ride without bundling up like I was in the arctic, so there’s a degree of hope.
I had said to Lee back in August that we were going to have an early and hard winter. I could just tell. Boy I hate being right all the time.
“ Boy I hate being right all the time.”
I know that feeling. 🙂 over a quarter century in the Denver area has branded into my consciousness that weather prediction is far from a perfected art. I’ve gone to bed after a beautiful, warm, winter’s day, and woke up to over a foot of snow. Back in those days, the TV weather forecast was about as believable as a Roadrunner vs Coyote cartoon; it was entertaining, but hardly anything to be taken seriously.
The weather here is usually easy to predict. If you predicted blue skies 365 days per year, you would have a pretty high success ratio; probably better than the average achieved by most professional weather forecasters. That having been said, I’ve been caught in unexpected snowstorms, even here. You haven’t lived until you’ve driven through 4” of snow in a sports car. 🙂
I’ll pass on that experience, thank you.
It was pretty crazy. There was only about 4” of ground clearance, so I was nearly dragging bottom. I couldn’t even make it up the slope of my driveway, and had to leave it down by the street. By the time I woke up the next morning, the snow had melted completely.
Wow. Like I said, I’ll take a pass on that experience!
Thankfully, it only happened once. That was, by far, the heaviest snow I’ve ever seen, here in southeastern AZ.
Just saw pictures today of Niagara Falls. It is mostly frozen.
There are some Niagara Falls webcams out there, and it looked pretty cold.
I just checked Tucson Falls; no ice. https://as2.ftcdn.net/v2/jpg/04/82/72/99/1000_F_482729980_KaDi3pR8F02XW8n570BcJqZcp3oHUuBz.jpg
For the record, there is no Tucson Falls, but if there were one, it would look like the photo in the link above. Of course, if you cross a bridge over a river, here in Arizona, you probably won’t see any water, either. 🙂
Beautiful picture, though.
That’s my back yard. 🙂 Actually, I have no idea where that is, although I believe it is somewhere in Arizona. For a desert, there sure are a lot of places where you can see terrain shaped by water.
