The weather





Just to the left of center is a large block of ice

from the bird's water dish


The temperature has hovered around 20 all day and we expect low teens tonight. The university closed for the day so Martha was able to stay home. We have a little bit of light snow and many of the streets are icy. There is up to an inch of ice on some streets and since it is not forecast to get above freezing for several days, that ice may not melt, or if it does it will refreeze. The high for tomorrow is only supposed to be low 20's. The winds are up around 25 to 30 mph and that makes the chill factor significant. As a side note, yesterday we were at 75 and sunshine, today we have the sunshine but over a 50 degree difference in temperature.

The birds are having a hard time.
