Notes
 An unusual snow squall blasted through mid-morning with wind and intense snow. It immediately tapered off and ended in about 15 minutes, leaving only a dusting on the ground. Old snow remains with under 50% coverage up to an inch deep. Sunrise on Hogback Day. Patrice and I have our own annual holiday called Hogback Day. The view from our backyard opens to the east over Red Rock Canyon. A craggy, hogback ridge runs north/south along the far side of the canyon. In the winter, the sun rises from behind the ridge. We watch its progress as it moves south to its winter solstice, stand-still point. Then it moves back north, retracing its path. On February 25, Hogback Day, the sun rises at the north end of the hogback where it meets the far horizon. From then on, the sun rises from the horizon. We mark this event as the first sign of the coming spring. Days are getting longer, birds begin singing and winter begins to relax its grip. Happy Hogback Day!
