First Snow?
Yesterday at 2:45pm it was 70 degrees outside. Later that night it was 31 degrees.
No thank you. I was not ready for that.
Knowing that it was going to get colder today, I went out yesterday for what might be my last bike ride outside for the season. It was comfortable, but a bit windy. However, on my way back, the wind from the north picked up significantly. In fact, it was blowing so hard, it was kind of scary. I was afraid a big gust of wind was going to tip me over and throw me into the ditch. On top of that, the breeze was very cool. The temperature had dropped quite a bit in the one hour that I was out.
Below: I captured this picture of the setting sun from my room. I had my camera in my office, so I ran downstairs to get it, and by the time I got back, this was the most I could capture. That sun sure sets fast!
Below: This morning there was this strange white residue on the Basilica roof. Snow? You can’t be serious.
Below: Get out the coat racks and winter coats! The monks have their coat rack in the stairwell in St. Joseph Hall.
Current temperature at 9:15am: 24 degrees (weather.com says it feels like 9 degrees!)
