Good Evening,

    Both bands were crystal clear and quiet.  But neither were very 
productive.  The inclement weather of the Midwest may be part of it.  
Even Central California was getting its share. Thunderstorms and a 
tornado.  Things are quieter here but it has been steadily raining for 
the last ?? days.  It becomes normal after a while so I use it to my 
advantage.  Get ready for the rainy season then spend it affixed to a 
keyboard.

    Ken had the coolest temperature on both bands.  He mentioned more 
snow is coming but it is January and he lives in North Dakota; there is 
no mystery involved.  Dave told me of white out conditions but only a 
few inches of snow from it.  Roy also had snow, enough to get his 
snowblower active.  However, when Mike mentioned ice on his antennas I 
shivered.  Snow is fine.  Rain is OK.  Ice is bad.  But I think hearing 
about a tornado in Central California was the most surprising.

       Kevin.  KD5ONS
