Sorry, had to throw the cat in there since Mike McKay's cat got so much attention.

No, I have the same 25 lb cat. :)

Actually, now that I have you, I want to talk about just how cold it can get in the
Canyons.. no, not just up top at the higher terrain, LOWER too. Why?

If the winds arent strong, cooler weather drains down  at night and pools in the canyon.
So much so that I measured a whopping 57 at Jordan Pines at 7100' and 84 degrees at
5100' at the mouth. That nearly 30 degree difference was more from the cold air pooling in the canyon where it was "stuck" than the 2000 foot difference which can really account for no more than 12 or 14 degrees, if that.

Mike McKay would call me a "Weather Geek" for bringing this up, but hey, we'll take any cold air we can get lately with 12 days over 100!
