+19 F at noon. Egads, it hasn't been that warm since before Christmas. I guess this is our January thaw. :{_}:

34 degrees. Steady rain for the past couple of hours. Rain is scheduled for the next 10 hours. Snow cover is gone.

Problem is that the ground is frozen. Think most of the much needed rain is running off. Will have to check the low water crossings to see if they are flooded.

If the temperature drops two or three degrees - - freezing rain and icy roadways.
I have an excuse. CRS.

Up to 35 late this afternoon, warmest we have been in over 2 weeks. Definitely not normal for this area.
If you are not part of the solution,
you are part of the problem!!!
