Imbolc Settling Moon II
Valentine’s Day will be warm here in Conifer, around 60. Andover is at -2 with a -28 windchill. A contrast.
A persistent ridge of high pressure has dominated the weather pattern here in the west while an equally persistent trough of low pressure has dominated the east. Minnesota has been in a colder than normal pattern as a result; we’ve been warmer.
As each warm spell arrives, it feels as if spring has arrived. Later, as will happen Sunday, the weather cools down again. Not cold, but markedly cooler. That’s when the snow comes. So far each recent snowfall has been followed by a warmup. And our south facing asphalt driveway responds by melting the snow, though I did have to blow it once this week after a 7 inch or so snowfall.
And that’s all the weather for now.
