No Snow Left

This morning's photo:

We had lots of rain here yesterday and very mild temps.Bridgewater,35kms to the east of me,was reporting 10° yesterday afternoon on their local radio station while I was getting readings of 7° here on my thermometer.The wind was also quite strong from southerly directions.

The rain ended overnight with temps still remaining mild,especially for this time of the year.Last year at this time we were having colder weather and there was a fair amount of snow on the ground....archives.

Some cooler weather is moving into the area today but nothing extreme with temps expected to be within normal values.

Hopefully it will be clear tomorrow night,as forecast,for viewing the total lunar eclipse in our area.
