Well the low is supposed to drop to -8° , it was 0° here an hour ago but heading down so any rain will likely be snow. Three forecast and not one is the same..

This is the least I've seen up here for this time of year, just hoping it's not gearing up for a bad forest fire season in the spring..

Patty was watching the news tonight and was surprised to see that California was still on fire.

Why would anyone stay there year after year?

Maybe I should be asking Sean the answer to that question.
