Today it is still blustery but the last couple of days have been something else! Not cold but howling, high winds and torrential rain. A friend who keeps chickens said that her chooks this morning had frazzled feathers standing straight up and she said they looked like they hadn't slept a wink. That was the second night in a row. They must be wondering if this is the new norm. And being 2020, it could be.

Right now, at 9:30 pm the temperature is 43F, which is unusually warm for December and the wind is only 25 mph. We're expecting more rain but they assure us that the storm has passed.
