49. Up here on the divide it's definitely freezing

Sat Dec 7, 2013, 02:52 AM

Dec 2013

at 7,000ft it's -20F and got all the way up to 0F this afternoon... it was even colder the last two nights. I'm not even thinking of starting up the vehicle until it's at least +10F... they just don't like to start in the cold no matter how much alcohol you add to the tank. And it's been snowing but I could see the moon through the cloud earlier when I went out for a stroll. Hope we get back up above 0F during the day soon, I don't like to ski down to town when it's this cold and I need to get my mail.

Edited to add: Looks like it might be subsiding in the next couple days, maybe...
