26deg right now. It was warmer earlier, at least 28 here and 30+ in town. Someone submitted a picture of a butterfly perched on the snow yesterday, which is this years first submittal. It's a Comptons Tortoise Shell that overwinters as an adult. They fly late in the fall and and wake up early in the spring. I generally have at least one come awake and fly around in my house over the winter, but not this year, at least not yet. And my browsing cow has come back twice since this morning; she's walking in right now for dessert.
