6:00AM: 32F, cloudy, dark - no snow over night.

We have "another round of widespread precipitation" moving in. Sitka's at the cut-off point - snow north of us, rain/snow south. Hopefully it'll be mostly rain here.

'Cause those piles of snow ain't melting and man....they need to.

By the way, it's my weather-duty to point out Sitka broke the low-temp record on the 28th. We went to 27F, which beat the old record of 28F, set in 1982.

Getting back into the hat-making groove (Christmas bazaars are coming after all) and I found a new salmon pattern on Ravelry. I'm enjoying playing with the colors/pattern and have another couple variations in mind.

6:00AM: 30F, cloudy.

Looks dark & gloomy out which, if I'm to be honest, I'm really enjoying.

We had just a wee snow shower overnight - there's a trace of the white stuff left behind.

We * might* get snow showers today and tomorrow - a couple of inches possible in total.

GET THEE BEHIND ME SNOW SATAN!!

OK - I feel better now.

6:15AM: 28F, mostly cloudy.

There are a few snow showers here & there in the forecast - maybe real snow Monday before turning to rain, but nothing, NOTHING like we've had.

It'll take a long time for all of this to melt. We still have 4'-6' piles around our house: snow John pushed off our flat, 1st floor roof.

Attached is looking down our street Monday. It looks much the same today.

A chance of snow showers this morning you say?

I scoff in your general direction!

6:00AM: 34F, overcast, breezy

We might have snow flurries, but at least we aren't Ketchikan & POW - 4-7 of snow possible today.

Nopity, nope, NOPE!

I just enjoyed driving home yesterday to clear and not-icy streets. I would like to continue to enjoy this until....say....next December!

7:00AM: Snowfall update.

Sitka has had 58.8" this season - the 2nd highest total on record (since 2007 at least). The highest was 77.4" in 2011-12.

6:15AM: 28F, overcast.

Could be flurries today, but it looks sunny-ish /cloudy-ish and cold for the rest of the week.

So I'm switching my Xtra Tuffs for ice crampons when I sally forth.
