Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Snow on the ground, having a heat wave at 10* (it was cold earlier. It was 8* then okay now that it’s warmed up to 10)!
Blue sky and sunshine!

I'm Ok with cold as long as it's sunny. This cloudy/foggy 35-40deg all day inversion crap is the pits. I feel like I'm catching a cold so I just stayed home yesterday but I'm getting sun deprived.

Finally, a FB marketplace deal that actually happened and was actually what it says it was. Decided it was time for a change and I needed more secure storage in the back of the truck. I've been looking for almost a year, almost caved a couple times and just bought one, but I kept looking. Then a few weeks ago I found one brand new still in the box at almost half (48%) the cost of new. I can live with that.

Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. A wonderful balmy shirtsleeve morning with clear blue skies and 13* temp.

We’ve been getting warning and alerts for several days about inversion. The first several of them said it would go on until Dec 30th. Made no sense to predict it going on that long. Then it changed to the 4th. Just got another one for Alpha and at Bravo. Alpha I could see. Temps kind of locked in, dank and foggy days. But not at Bravo. 13 to 18 early mornings, 50 to 55 in the afternoons, crystal clear with minimal humidity.

Snoopy has been out twice this morning, gone for his run and had breakfast. He must think he was too warm as he spent time rolling in the snow. He’s also been on a tear in the house.
