Cold Nights

Once the sun dipped below the mountain to the west of the Alpen Rose RV Park in Durango, Colorado, it got pretty chilly here fast.

Also, some winds made it even colder. So now I am in The Beast with my ceramic space heater going. It is making the inside more comfortable.

It is going to dip below freezing tonight, so it looks like I'll have the holding tank heaters on. I am relying on the water in fresh water tank. I will hook up the fresh water hose tomorrow morning. I am not going to repeat what happened at Monument Valley when sub-freezing temperatures froze the water in the fresh water hose.

Small wonder the RV park empties the trout fishing pond for winter (yes, they have a trout fishing pond). It is completely empty now.

According to the National Weather Service, the temperatures in Durango will be:

Tonight
Mostly clear, with a low around 31. West wind 5 to 10 mph becoming north northeast after midnight.
Thursday
Sunny, with a high near 69. Breezy, with a light and variable wind becoming west 15 to 20 mph in the morning. Winds could gust as high as 30 mph.
Thursday Night
Mostly clear, with a low around 32. Breezy, with a northwest wind 15 to 20 mph decreasing to 5 to 10 mph after midnight.
