Time to get ready
Punxsutawney Phil did not see his shadow and has predicted a early spring. I can only hope he is right I am so tired of this cold.

We're in Washington State, about 50 straight line miles from the border with Canada. For the 5th year in a row, we haven't had any snow at sea level. The overnight low temps at the moment are around 34F and daytime highs getting towards 50 degrees.
Most days are dull and overcast, but we've had quite a lot of sunny ones in the last couple of weeks. Rainfall total for January was only about half the typical amount. We're just at the northern edge of the Olympic Mountains' wind break. It's amazing to see how often the big TV weather map showing the path of the weather goes either side of our location.
On average, we get about 30 percent less rain than Seattle.
