Spring is in the air.....

.....and MUD is on the feet.  

Spring time in Nome!  It is only the 4th week I have been in Nome, and I cannot tell you how welcoming the mud is on the way home, after work.

 The wind blew the ice back in, and closed off the open water on Norton Sound.   We have had more snow the last 3 days, and it was kind of depressing. The last 2 days there has been less sunshine due to fog, but the temperatures are climbing!  It is supposed to be 38 degrees today! 

For the next 9 days, the lowest "high" temperature is predicted to be 25 degrees.  Every other day is supposed to be above freezing, with one day at 43 degrees.    It has been good to see it all melt.  Like I said in an earlier post.  Every day it gets above freezing in Nome, seems to be a good day.  Every day with sun not bad either.
