Good morning! Happy Thursday!
It's 25F, no wind, sunny with a high of 49F. Soaking rain chances on Sunday are looking good, yes yes.
With all the drought info out there in reliable sources you'd think I could find the rain deficit. Nope.
This is the weather report for the Blue Ridge, oldest mountains in the U.S.
Have a good day #CoSoFriends near and far.

#WWIIChristmas photos have begun, through New Year's from the Marshall Foundation Library! Christmas 1941, days after Pearl Harbor, & the U.S. Army reassured that soldiers were keeping Christmas. The first days' photos are from Ft. Lee, now Gregg-Adams. Santa delivering the tree!
Good morning!
Very cold and windy today -- highs feel like 30 F. Leave the holiday blowups down or you'll find them next county over.
So grateful for the rain over the weekend. We got 1.5 to 2 inches. We need much more but progress.

What are your #3ChristmasSongs?
1/3 My three Christmas songs -- I'm a librarian/archivist with an extensive #WWII collection, so my songs were familiar to military members then.

A day that will live in infamy.
The attack on #PearlHarbor is one of those touchstone moments; folks recall where they were.
My dad was camped with the 29th ID at Camp Pickett (now Fort Barfoot), traveling home from the big Maneuvers.
