Welcome to my blog. This is more for me than anyone else, but if anyone is actually bored enough to read the mindless nonsense I have to write, (or um, type) then more power to you. I'll probably use the blog as a weather and outdoor journal and post pictures whenever something interesting happens, like a hike, or a snow storm, or god forbid, a bad thunderstorm.

I like how you can add pics right into blog. This is going to be fun.

Not much weather to talk about right now, since I just woke up an hour ago. But I just looked out the window and a few stray snowflakes are making their way to the ground. I didn't expect that. Its little things like that that keep me going during the winter....keeps me going till the next big storm. Temp is 35 in Hanover, and it looks like its going to be a "normal" day since the average high is 35. I don't expect it to get much warmer today, maybe if the sky brightens we'll approach 40. After viewing the visible satellite, it doesn't look like we'll get much sun, with clouds moving in from upstate NY, but brightening skies are always possible. A cold front is on the way, so 40 is definitely a stretch, but possible with a southerly wind here in the CT river valley. One thing I've learned this winter, a south wind in this valley brings in the relatively warm air quite well.

I'm awaiting the new updates on Friday night and Saturday's storm. There are too many solutions right now, so its too early to comment. I'll just say, a chance of rain or snow.

Maybe I'll comment more later tonight, when the day is over. This was fun.
