Wednesday, November 30 11:55 am

Cloudy sky, there is sunrise, it is very windy outside, and quite chilly.

30°F

9 hours and 17 minutes of daylight

On my visit I could hear the sound of the trees being moved my the wind, but there was't any animal around because of the time of year. I could feel the cold wind on my face, I still daw the dead plants, and the trees with no leaves, I heard some cars drive by.

There is no longer snow on the ground, it is just really windy and chilly. There is no longer snow on the plants, but the plants and trees still have no leaves, they are done for the winter. But, it has been getting colder so there is a thin layer of ice on the top of the pond.


Weekly Questions

How long is it going to take for there to be an inch of ice on the ground?

Is there a reason to why the first snow most of the time doesn't stay around?

How cold does it have to be for ice to normally freeze over a pond?

How long does it take to get 1 inch depth of ice?

  Weekly Picture Extra Picture Extra Picture Extra Picture Sunday, November 13 11:10a.m. Snowing hard on and off, a pure white sky. The snow flakes are big, and seem to slowly float down. 34°F 9 hours and 49 minutes of day light I felt the snow on the ground, it made it cold, on my hands, and face. I felt the snow flakes coming down slowly. I did not hear a much at all a few cars going by that is it. I saw the trees, and plants with snow hanging off of them. Some of the changes that I noticed from the last visit, first of all, there is now snow on the ground, and everything is wither brown or white there are no colored leaves anymore, everything is covered, and leaves are all gone. The trees and the plants that are still alive are covered in snow, some more of plants have died. Sketch  (Sorry it is sideways I don't know how to rotate it.)
