Nice sunset.   Bright pink clouds.   37.0 in NW Chesco with some clear patches.

It was indeed a beautiful sunset through the woods tonight. I was working outside and called my wife out to share the view, with just a few minutes to spare the cloud deck moved enough off of the horizon to frame it perfectly. Thanks for mentioning it.

37F here after a high of 51F this afternoon. Going to get some sleep and see what it looks like in the morning. Good luck all tomorrow, here's hoping for more snow/sleet than freezing rain. It will be interesting to see how much precipitation we actually got come Tuesday morning.

amazing difference Kamu as I'm not too far NNE of you and it only made it to 40 here today...

the relativly short distance closer to the backdoor front and my somewhat deeper snow pack accounted for the 11 degree variance

I'm at 32.7 currently though that fog is killing my snow ("snow-eater" for sure)

hoping qpf guidance will be wrong (once again!)
