SNOW! (actually, Hail...)

Today, Thurs, Jan 10, a big dark cloud came over and HAIL poured down in sheets for nearly a half-hour! ...Hailstones the size of mothballs. First, it melted as it hit, but eventually it began to "stick'.

I took these photos right after it stopped, thinking it would quickly melt. However, it's now a couple hours later, and it still is on the ground. While it may appear as a snowfall, it is actually slushy hailstones.

Presently, it's 38deg F. It's predicted to get cold -- staying down in the 20's & low 30's for a couple days.

This our shed where Ed has his model work-table set up ...his "Man-Cave"(?)

So it might just be a real hazard getting around for awhile! Our Motorhome, while cozy and heated, does not have an abundance of insulation (which expains why over half the Park Sierra residents have left for southern, warmer climes).

Still, we are stocked up on blankets, groceries, etc., and we just "cuddle-in" more! So "no worries."

Here are our 2 dogs "cuddling in", staying warm on Karen's lap!

We realize that compared to other parts of the U.S., we have it pretty mild, but we are in California, after all!
