In the evening (when we are outdoor in warmer weather), we feel the cool air flowing down from the peak above us.<BR/><BR/>This time of year, our barn is consistently 5° to 10° colder than the house. It is at the low point of the direct downslope; to move lower, it must find a route either to the east or west for the accumulated cold air to dissipate. This cold air congestion makes life much colder for her horses than for us humans even with such a minor elevation difference.Old Bogushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10439927444541621652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915442507015152354.post-25165169716627485972008-01-01T17:25:00.000-07:002008-01-01T17:25:00.000-07:00Coincidentally...

I was just reading our Forecast Discussion.<BR/><BR/>"EXPECT THAT THE SNOW PACK WILL ERODE ENOUGH IN NE/EC WI BY SUNDAY OR MONDAY TO ALLOW TEMPS TO WARM INTO THE 40S. DEEPER SNOW COVER IN OUR WSTRN COUNTIES WILL RESULT IN SOMEWHAT COOLER TEMPS."<BR/><BR/>Great topic!<BR/><BR/>On a side note. The cold Arctic air has arrived. Today we watched the temp drop 13F since this morning around 9am. It's currently 7F. I do not want to believe our snow pack will be gone by early next week...Josh Hermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10809581468183556700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915442507015152354.post-74273285461576257612008-01-01T17:12:00.000-07:002008-01-01T17:12:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Josh Hermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10809581468183556700noreply@blogger.com
