Won't be long now..
FYI: I had a low of 34.8 degrees Fahrenheit on my deck last night.
Tomatoes don't do well at 8000 feet with a two month growing season. They're about four inches tall. ObSkiing: You can make snow at 34.8 degrees. And it's been 3 weeks since my last ski turns. Lift assisted no less. Two months without skiing? The horror. May need to make a few turns this week somewhere just to keep the mojo going. Got wax? -klaus |

The first plant that popped up in our tomato barrel this April is now over eight feet tall. If only it were a tomato plant instead of a giant ragweed.... bw |

Interesting, because up at Brighton (8750 ft), I see that the recorded low from last night (41 degrees f) occurred at 7:00 AM: http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/mesowest/get...e=1&banner=off I guess the colder air is dropping down the canyon, at this point anyway. Yup. My house sits in a little sink that is routinely a few degrees cooler than even Solitude. I thought it was my thermometers at first, but they all read the same, including a photo thermometer I used to use to develop pictures. I could tell from the prayer flags that there was a slight downcanyon airflow. The same thing happens in winter under high pressure. -klaus |
