Hm, resent the temperature reference, thought it was years, but you get a pass jail card for the trestle going around the big woody thing. :D

50f is just... cold. (I converted, about 10 degrees!) The sun looks nice though!

50c would be a bit more challenging, especially with brass or aluminium rail. The closest we've ever got here is 47 degrees, but 50 is predicted as likely in future with the warming world.

-3 (-11) C at 17:00 here..
Early hours, perhaps, but we are not used to it in the daytime.. Fine, light powder, which is blowing about. Some sections of road are clear, then you get a dip, and the snow has dropped out of the wind into it.
Main roads are still 'wet'. - Vehicles are working the salt which as been spread.. Of course, with these temperatures, this will freeze overnight so will be 'interesting' in the morning!

We have had some bright sunny days, but very deceptive, as you find out when you venture outside.
