Winter Weather Advisory

Today was spent in Gallup where I took Larry Lucier to his CAT Scan and physical therapy appointments.

It rained in town with some scattered snow showers. It was too warm for the snow to stick and it melted as soon as it hit the ground.

I got home about 20 minutes ago, which was just in time as it started snow showering. We're now under a Winter Weather Advisory from the National Weather Service.
