We just had a day and a half of full sun after a few weeks of mostly overcast skies. It's back to gray now, supposed to be 'Mostly Sunny' on Wednesday (fingers crossed), then back to overcast.

This is our 6th winter down here after leaving New Hampshire, and it's by far the grayest it's been. Generally, winters have been ~75% sunny, and that's been great.

This winter reminds me of growing up in San Francisco's Inner Richmond district, where fog could lay-in for extended periods. That was depressing, but I did learn how to do a pretty good rendition of the Golden Gate Bridge's fog horns!

It was sunny and warm on Saturday.
Sunday and today it is gloomy and windy!
This desert can’t make up its mind.

Same here but we do get some 60s starting in the middle of the week.

Ho-hum it could be worse.

Confident in saying the groundhog will not see his shadow where I am today... I think we've had 5 sunny days in a month. And the temperatures are supposed to drop tonight to -20 something.

Phil saw his shadow in Pax, so . . .
