We rose this morning to very cold temperatures. While they are not as cold as they could be, they are still cold. The sky this morning was mostly cloudy, covered mainly by nimbostratus clouds. There is some filtered sun, but I do not expect it to warm things up very much. This arctic air should give the ski areas an opportunity to make large quantities of snow.
My two electronic instruments are showing a tendency toward fair weather. If the clouds continue to break up I would tend to agree with them. Just to note, the weather stick can't make up its mind, it is straight out.
Yesterday afternoon we saw the male and female cardinal at our feeder, along with the usual variety of chickadees, a downy woodpecker and nuthatches. Feed must be becoming difficult to find in the woods since the population at our feeder seems to be increasing.
