| THE CLOUDS ARE BACKLIT BY A PERSISTENT SUN THIS MORNING |
Friday, 9:00 AM. 10 degrees F at the ferry dock, 15 on the back porch. Wind SSW, gusty at times. The sky is a mix of high overcast and high clouds that the sun is trying valiantly to shine through. The humidity is 79% and the the barometer is 30.58" and trending down.The sun has been noticeably absent from the morning skies, and feeble as it may be, it is a welcome presence this morning. We have had some sunny late afternoons.
The difference of 5 degrees F from downtown to our back porch on the bluff is due to the wind sweeping up from Ashland across twenty miles of ice directly to the ferry dock. We are somewhat sheltered from it up on the bluff and do not get its direct effect. But, we are usually colder than downtown when the wind is from the west.
In any case, seeing that unfamiliar luminous object in the morning sky is worthy of a newsflash.
