The rays of the setting sun are fainter every day as the Winter Solstice approaches, as seen from Nimble Road in Mehoopany, looking east across the river toward Procter & Gamble (top) with the Pizza Barn (above) on the right.

Those looking for some snow will be hard-pressed to see any over the next two-weeks according to long-term forecasts. The United States as a whole is already experiencing a “snow drought” this season.
A brief warm-up underway today and tomorrow will give way to more seasonable temperatures with a rigorous freeze-thaw cycle underway. Watch for rocks in the road in narrow stretches of highway along mountainsides and cliffs.
The eight day forecast follows:
Tuesday night low: 38 partly cloudy
Wednesday: 48/25 partly cloudy
Thursday: 44/35 late showers
Friday: 44/25 clearing
Saturday: 44/27 partly cloudy
Sunday: 44/27 partly cloudy
Monday: 44/33 partly cloudy
Tuesday: 46/35 showers
