Well, yesterday/today marks the beginning of having more light! I find that I am a bit seasonally effected, the dark mornings and evenings leave me with far less energy than inthe spring and summer. for us, the day was 8 hours and 30 minutes long, not even a full workday with lunch. Blah! Oh, well, walking back from the neighbors house this evening at 8 pm in the pitch black, snow crunching under our feet, LED Christmas lights glowing on the garages was pretty nice.
We are waiting for a storm tonight, The National Weather Service Has been changing the forcast several times over the last few days, but now that the snow is almost here:
URGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGE

OF THE NORTHLAND OVERNIGHT AND THROUGH SUNDAY...
A NARROW TONGUE OF DRY AIR WILL PUSH OVER THE NORTHLAND THIS
EVENING...BRINGING A BREAK IN THE SNOW. HOWEVER A POWERFUL LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL QUICKLY OVERTAKE THE DRY AIR AND REINTRODUCE
THE SNOW THROUGH THE NIGHT. CONDITIONS WILL DETERIORATE QUICKLY
TONIGHT...SO BE PREPARED IF TRAVELING AND CARRY A SURVIVAL KIT.
THE SNOW...HEAVY AT TIMES WILL SPREAD OVER MUCH OF THE REGION
BY DAY BREAK SUNDAY. THE BULK OF THE SNOW FROM THIS STORM WILL

EFFECT SNOW WILL CONTINUE INTO MONDAY MORNING.
STRONG WINDS GUSTING AROUND 40 MPH WILL BE FOUND NEAR LAKE
