    Snow is gone ....50 here yesterday. Rain tonight and freezing temps. But, hey, it's southern Indiana. All you have to do is wait a few hours. It'll change again.....we plan for it year 'round

    So we had like a one day thaw along with ice and then another dreaded forecast of 1-3 inches to snow. Which around here is code for " you are probably going to get a foot or better" and we did. I had business about and hour away yesterday and ran out of the snowstorm abut 12 miles down the road into blue skies. Windy with some blowing a drifting snow but no more accumulations. When I can home I ran back into the storm right where I had left it, still snowing like hell. So this morning we dug out again!

    We had a neat day today. About 25 degrees this morning when I headed out to Shenandoah to do the Shenandoah Run Hike. No rain, plenty of sun. It probably got up to 36. 8.2 miles, 1960' elevation gain. Not to strenuous, but imo it wasn't a beginner's trail as it is ranked.

    Blizzard-like conditions started at noon and will continue all night. It took me an hour to get home tonight on public transit. I could have walked home in the same time but I would have been frozen by the gusting wind. Tomorrow's commute should be interesting.

    We are going to get some rain / snow starting around 3 pm. A bunch of local schools have announced a two hour early release.

    A number of people treated for frostbite at a Minnesota hospital required admission to the burn unit for therapies that include drugs to restore circulation. Some of them will probably still require amputations. Be careful in these conditions if you live in this area.

    Oh, happy day. The polar vortex is going home! It won't be summer temps but it won't be frostbite in 10 minutes of exposure either.

    Let me guess, since sometime on Wednesday? It was a pretty large polar vortex that was even worse to the west. The temperature is going up starting tomorrow.
