Winter Wetland: A Weather Story (part er)

Well the sleet finally stopped and the temperature rose so we were able to get the little car back home safe and sound yesterday.

This morning was met with a cold mist, but at least it was above freezing! Later tonight and early tomorrow morning we're supposed to get rain mixed with ice and snow, switching to rain for most of tomorrow/Friday and then switching over to snow on Saturday. It looks like Santa had better be wearing a rain coat and waders with pontoon attachments on his way through Ohio, 'cause that sleigh is likely to get stuck in the mud!

The Whitewater river has cleared up nicely and is a beautiful blueish green color now so if we do get a decent snow covering on the banks I'll try to get some photos to share.

From Lightnin and I:
Here's wishing everyone out there (even those of you who choose not to send in comments, and you know who you are!) a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

For our friends in Beijing: Sheng dan jie kuai le ye Chun jie kuai le!
