New Year's and Weather

So everyone else on the planet has entered into 2011 except this part of Alaska. Then again, maybe Hawaii is behind us. I can't remember. Anyway, we have about an hour to go and I would be in bed given the choice. However, the war outside is going to keep me awake. The Municipality of Anchorage has allowed fireworks this year. And I don't mean the little ground-bound fireworks that are legal in some cities in California. Here they let people buy the big fireworks that explode in the air. So since 8PM it has sounded like war outside... without the screaming, shaking buildings, and (hopefully) people dying.

The weather today was warm. It was 37 degrees, so the snow melted leaving slush and exposed ice underneath. The forecast calls for highs in the 30s all this week. Claims we'll get snow too, but if it's over 32, we'll get rain. Maybe the ice will mostly melt before I have to drive to work on Monday.

Have a Fabulous 2011!!

Take care,
Sandra
