One degree (F) when I first checked the temp, and windy on the snowy hill (where I wore snowshoes for the first time this winter). But also sunny, and it didn’t feel too miserably cold.

More snow forecast for tomorrow, though—and possibly a record-setting from Sunday into Monday.

Oh, joy. (And I’m not even being sarcastic.)
