If we set any records in the next few days, it will be for flooding. It's 41 degrees and the rain started yesterday. It hasn't stopped yet, and the Weather Channel predicts 100% chance of raain for the next two days, 90% on Sunday. The long stormy edge of the front sat parked over the Ohio River for about 16 hours, and the fat end of the storm on the North will remain over the river for another day or so.
The creek in my backyard overflowed it's banks last night and is still rising. Halfway up the backyard now.

It turned cold rapidly today. It went down from about 10 deg C to 3 and then -3 after dark.
We went to the flea market.
They are looking after the big wheel for the winter and are giving cheap rides instead of just renting a yard. The riders did not care about the cold unlike last week when the wind was so strong that the swaying cars put most them off.
We got ourselves a smiling Sam to keep our Knob Head company

Yesterday we had -24c, was trying to dig out the firewood from under a big pile of snow from the roof when I got home from work.
Woke up to -13c today. So fairly mild, but there's a sour draft.
Will have to dig more when I get home, should start removing snow from the garden or we might get a small glacier going there.

Climate vs Weather. Grua/Oslo and Maine are similar climates. This week here has been mostly above freezing, and the only snow is plow-bank foundations.
The side-effect of frost coming out of the ground is that most ground, including the underlayment of secondary roads, is liquid mud, NO support, and the pavement breaks up. The low-cost roads are all pot-holes. The old-old concrete highways, the slabs shift, and even under decades of tar-topping it is like saw-teeth.
