Weather still pending

Air temperature 36 F, wind north about 10 mph, mostly cloudy. Did get a fraction of a sunrise this morning. Forecast has moved the rain/snow line inland a bit for tonight into tomorrow. And the city has finally removed that bit of old trolley track that was surfacing through the road at the end of our block.

I would expect that the coronavirus spread will provide an excuse for some regimes to ban public gathering, and perhaps postpone elections. And when it gets into the refugee and detention camps, block movement of displaced people. We'll see whether the US is one of those regimes . . .

Minor amusements

Wonder why we have a KC10 doing repeated landing patterns overhead. Must be a visitor -- local unit is KC135s.
