We’ve had a record week of clear skies, sunny days and freezing temperatures. Apparently it’s the cloud cover that blankets the area with warmer temperatures (and I use that term loosely) in the 40’s. But right now it’s 23 degrees at night and about 35 during the day. Puddles in the shade stay frozen all day, the icy wind blowing from Mt. Hood cuts like a knife, and the local news is telling residents to keep pets indoors and offering tips to prevent frozen pipes. It’s ironic because we’d rather be outside when it’s sunny and dry, but the cold winds quickly drive us back indoors. More and more, I’m thinking that the addition of a sun porch to the new house would be a great asset in weather like this.
