Weather's Comin'

9:00 a.m. here at the Lodge.

We go from bright and beautiful sun, to overcast and cool, all in a moments shift.
Presently we are in a sun moment.

The temperature is 34 degrees F and steady;
The humidity is 73% and steady;
The barometric pressure is 30.00 and rising;
Both the primary and secondary stream channels are running;
The USFS Fire Danger Class is MEDIUM;
There is a substantial breeze;
The trails are wet and soft, please be mindful of this.

It is a good day for maple sap running, and we will let you know what we manage to pull.
The buckets we hung at Nick's Woods have thus far been quite modest in their yield.

A storm is heading up the eastern seaboard and is over the Carolinas.
The neighbors are all talking snow as they do gardening in this brief moment of spring.
(Already at 9:27 it is now up to 35.8 degrees F and rising, so warmth is the word of the day!)

Enjoy!
