Sun and Snow Flurries

Another winter storm passed through our section of the world.  Brrr! Sunday morning was cold but as the day progressed is got colder and colder.  We had some light snow flurries that fell late in the day. Along with some "thunder sleet" as the local weatherman termed it.  Sleet with some thunder rumbling in the skies above.

Oh but Monday!....By the time Monday morning rolled around our temp was the lowest it's been all season long.  What was the lovely temp?  With the wind chill factored in it was -2!  Yes, you read that right....negative 2!  Early in the morning the sun was out but yet light snow flurries were falling.  I think that's the first time I've ever seen sun and snow flurries at the same time!

Obviously I can't take the boys on their long walk in -2 degrees weather.  We instead went out for a brief time.  Which ended up being briefer than I planned.  When we first got outside yesterday morning, I thought it didn't feel too bad.  I felt I could handle it for a short time. After a about 5 minutes and a short walk about I decided I had to get back inside sooner than anticipated.  The boys didn't disagree!  We all hurried along!

At one point late in the day yesterday, it was again time to walk the boys before it got dark. Cody was snug as can be in his bed next to the space heater.  I called for him to come get leashed up.  Once he arrived in front of me, I began putting his leash on, that's when I noticed he instantly started to shiver!  Poor thing was already anticipating the coldness he was about to face outside. 

The good news is the temps will slowly warm up each day of the week.  Today will be a bit cold but not as cold as Sunday or Monday so I'm not complaining!  Come on 40 degrees!  We welcome you in!
