Cold In The Valley

The official airport temperature has been hovering at 22 degrees since about 2 this morning. That breaks the record for the day by 2 degrees. As I came down off of the South Hill this morning, headed for the church in the Latah Valley, the temperature on the car thermometer dropped from 25 at the top of the hill to 13 at the bottom. Wow! That's 12 degrees over about 400 feet vertically. We will be treated to bright sunshine today, but it won't be any warmer than yesterday. When warmer air does come our way by the middle of the week it will be accompanied by more moisture, and that will mean clouds and rain. We could see some significant snow in some low mountain elevations on Tuesday, perhaps a few inches down to about 3,500 feet.

I didn't post any church pictures yesterday, as I wasn't here long enough to take any. I hope to today, and I will have them for you this evening, after I stop crying from Beth heading back to school in St. Paul today.
