Good Day Mate...Happy Valentine's Day!
NO precipitation yesterday or overnight. This morning as of 8:30 a.m., we have a current temperature of 33 degrees. It is cloudy and overcast today as we don't expect to see the sun any today. Those coming out to Bulcher this morning will experience extremely bad fog...making for limited visibility so use caution on roadways. The fog will likely lift later on this morning similar to what it did yesterday. With a current temperature of 33 degrees...we are not too far from our anticipated "high temperature" of the day...35 degrees...so it is going to be a cold one guaranteed! Yesterday believe it or not, around 2:30 to 3 p.m., the sun made its debut and somewhat warmed us up just for a little while which helped with melting a lot of the snow. There is still some snow on sides of trails, in trees, and on the ground which makes for some pretty pictures. But now with a lot of the snow melted, our trails are much more defined, which will help guide riders thru our trail system. But as expected due to the melting, expect icy (in some spots) as well as muddy & slushy (in other spots) trails. Also, if you haven't checked the forecast...please note that it is still predicting pm rain/snow showers for today, so we'll just have to wait and see what is in store for us. After all the moisture we have received this winter, now nothing with the weather seems to surprise us anymore. We have received NO precipitation thus far today.
Please note that there is currently a freezing fog advisory in effect for our area. See details below:
