Today’s Minot Daily News headline “Weird Weather Weekend” best describes what we had in Anamoose on Sunday. It started out with about 3 inches of rain that turned to snow later on in the day. In checking with others we had somewhere between 5 and 8 inches of snow. Many tree branches were down around town. Pictured is a large branch broken off in William Piper’s yard.
Then last night (Monday) the temperature went down to 27. Even the weeds were drooping this am. Hopefully the crops and perennial flowers like the lilacs survived the cold overnight temp.
This all comes after several week of reasonably nice weather. This past week on a walk around town I saw the flowering crab trees blooming.
