A LITTLE TRAVELIN' MUSIC, PLEASE


LAKE EFFECT SNOW STORM CONTINUES

Tuesday, 7:30 AM.  12 degrees F, wind variable, with gusts.  It is overcast and foggy with considerable lake effect snow falling.  The humidity is 81%, the barometer more or less steady at 29.93".  The snow continues to mount up, well over 2' has fallen in Bayfield in the last 7+days, and the Michigan U.P., just down the road, has gotten 50+".
   A top climatologist is now saying we are well into a thirty year cold cycle brought on by weak sunspot activity.  Makes sense to me.
   We are traveling to Duluth this morning and then diagonally across northwestern Wisconsin to Wausau to attend a Wednesday meeting of regional city foresters.  The meeting will focus on the recent find of an Emerald Ash Borer infestation in Eagle River in northern Wisconsin.  This puts Bayfield right in it's path from three directions, and we won't escape this scourge much longer.
   No time for a longer post, and no post tomorrow.  The roads are still awful so it will be a tedious trip, at least along the lake shore.  Play us  a little travelin' music, please.
