It felt cold outside for the sunset. Did it look cold?

Were all these clouds forecast?

Could you imagine being an alligator and going, "What is this sh*t?".

Coldest air of the season probably starting tonight. Celebrated by taking a few sunset pics. About lost a little skin on the fingers getting these, but hey, the things we do for our hobbies. The yellows. Taken with the 24-70mm at 70mm... The orange. Taken with the 24-70mm at 57mm... What little reds there were. also shows the snow showers in the area at the same time. Taken with the 24-70mm at 45mm...

^ impressive that there is a 36 to 40 degree difference between Minneapolis and Indianapolis. Rooting here for the cloud cover to stick around and keep our temps up.

Once again. location, location and location. Yes it rained here for a bit overnight but it did switch over to snow early morning and made a slick commute. I was worried about a flash freeze after this slush-fest but with ORD -LAF- IND tabs open, I only see a slow downturn of temps and dews. Thank goodness.

Ouch. Gale warnings with extreme temps. That is adding insult to injury.

any new updates?

Sometimes living in town insulates a person from some real stuff. This afternoon I headed out with the camera to the countryside and found the blowing snow still causing a few minor headaches here and there. Coming over a rise you would come upon spots like this still fairly often...

That is not right. KIND has had more snow than ORD. Take the rest of the snows, please. After the snows, now we get to look at dirty snow for awhile. Not a good look...

The forecasters warning about a sharp cut off was true...

Only 23 left to go!

I am too tired from shoveling 6" to post.

location, location, location. Meanwhile, 5 to 6" here.

Meanwhile, what it looks like today, now...
