Good Evening,
   Looks like the freezing rain is only for those folks living in the valley.  Oddly enough the temperature up here is three degrees warmer than it is lower.  The cold air has been captured in the valleys and has to follow the rivers to get out to the ocean.  Moisture is laid on top of this so I will receive rain while they will have theirs as freezing rain.  However, checking outside there is still nothing falling.  Neither rain nor snow so maybe it will warm up below before it falls.  I am happy because I won't lose my antennas to ice.
   Propagation was decent and improving as the week went by.  Twenty meters was strong, forty meters less so, and eighty meters took more effort to work locally but it worked long very nicely.  I would have had both 80 meter foxes if I had looked more thoroughly on the low side.  I spent most of my time searching the upper half of their range after working the first one low.  But, I was out foxed because both of them were low ;)  I missed the forty meter hunt due to other obligations.  

Please join us tomorrow evening.
