Simon,
We received about 30 cm of snow two weeks ago, and the temperatures had been hovering around -15 C. More recently ee have enjoyed daytime highs of +10 C for each of the past three days, and the snow depth has been reduced to 10 cm. The skies have been incredibly clear and calm over the wekend. I was able to enjoy Saturn at 220X in the refractor this past Saturday night. Clouds are rolling in now, and the forecast calls for more snow on Thursday. Those clouds that you mentioned must be finishing up a long eastward journey from Chester to the Northeastern US!
Clear Skies,
Bob
