But, It’s June!

There are a couple of interesting things to observe in this picture.

First, there is snow on the ground. The picture was taken this past February while on the way to Omaha for a basketball game. As the summer starts to heat up, you need to remember that relief will come.

Second, in the background is a tower that had been used for microwave communications. At one time it was a vital part of our communications infrastructure, but hasn’t been live for several years.

You get extra points if you can tell me where this picture was taken.

First Snow

Kind of dreary, isn’t it?

This was the view out the back door of our office building on Tuesday. Snow was falling. The roads were slick. Schools were closed.

I’ve not seen official snowfall totals, but at my house I measured 9″ of the white stuff piled up.

Along with the snow, the temperatures dropped to -9F one morning. That should fit anyone’s definition of cold.
