Still warm and nice here

 

 

We got up to a morning temperature of 56 degrees.  At Becky’s house, it was 70 degrees colder than that.  They’re having a degree deficit.  They’re looking to a high today that doesn’t break zero, and a low of -18 tonight.  Brr.  I think that’s good for the climate in Colorado though.  That whole biosystem has evolved with occasional bursts of deep cold, like 20 or 30 below.  The native plants and animals will be just fine.

 

Here, our high in the 70s today will plummet to below freezing.  We expect highs in the 30s and 40s, but below freezing every night for four nights.  Again, native plants and animals will be just fine, but our ornamentals, like the big poinsettia,


 

will need some protection.


 

It can be an indoor plant for a few days.

 

Happy Winter everybody!
