Seasons

Hour of Daylight.

Sometimes it gets darn depressing looking at the countdown clock I built when it notes that spring is quite a ways off. ⌚️ But the truth is some news is encouraging, the fact that in a month the sun will be setting close to 5:15 PM each day πŸŒ‡ and that we will have gained an hour of of daylight each day. Not spring time yet, but certainly that will feel a whole lot closer. 🌻

Snow in North and East

Legend for Modeled Snow Depth (Shallow-snow Legend)The other day I discovered that one can easily get current snowfall estimates from the NOHRSC Interactive Snow Information Website, by clicking the link to the latest page or latest image in the lower left-hand side of the page. Very handy for planning outdoor trips.

Here are some of the images you can get from that page, which are very helpful for planning camping, hiking, skiing, snowmobiling and other activities during the winter months when you aren’t necessarily sure how much snow you will be dealing with or how deep the snow is. Are seasonal-use, non-gated roads open to safe driving? This can help you find out. Very helpful for sure.
