First day of (real) snow - in Binghamton, NY

December 8, 2006 by muyiwa

Today, we had what I learned is referred to as "falling daily temperatures" or something to that effect. It's a curious situation in which morning temperatures are higher than afternoon temperatures. Today, the morning temperature was 34°F, and afternoon temperature was 22°F!!

Here's a couple of pictures. It's only the beginning though, so as I said yesterday, I wait in anticipation of negative temperatures. Brrrrrrr....

Sometimes, day-time falling temperature could fall in the afternoon/evening by more than half of what it started with during the morning.

The most serious impediment to a lasting archive is the evolution of media, platforms, formats, and the applications that create them. Unique, proprietary, and constantly evolving data formats such as Acrobat-4, MPEG-4, Oracle 8, Quicken 2001, Real G2, and Word 2000 suggest or even guarantee obsolescence.
