This December Day

The weather took flight this afternoon, and continues to soar
around us.  May this December day be netted, pinned and mounted
in our memories, as a reminder of what beauty emerged from
November's cloudy cocoon.  If you're reading this inside while
today's sun shines ... well, you're missing out.

Speaking of taking a break from today's toils, a Mesonet server
decided to take about 90 minutes off this morning, and encouraged
his peers to do the same.  They obliged.  After some hard work
by OCS's operational staff, data is once again flowing freely and
fastly ... reminding stubborn souls still inside that it's sunny
and sixty on the other side of your walls!
