It's been up and down... one day 20, next day 45, for temperatures. That's crazy for mid winter. It should be hovering at 20 or so for normal. And while most won't complain about the lack of snow so far, we typically get about 45 inches, per season, we're less than a quarter to date. That means, no water for spring melts. No water, in case most you you have forgotten, is bad!
