This weekend our weather was relatively mild with an inch of snow falling last night. Our class continues to blog with a school in Washington State.  We were very excited to learn that they received snow this past weekend.  Today it was sunny with a high temperature of 28 degrees.  Our class determined that today was 11 degrees colder than the average high temperature for this time of year.

On Wednesday into Thursday the meteorologists have predicted a snowstorm called Pax.  We have learned that Pax is the Roman Goddess of peace; She urges us to keep harmony among one another as a sacred commodity throughout the year. On coins, Pax appears youthful and often bears an olive branch to extend the hand of truce or a cornucopia, indicating that there is an abundance of peace for those who truly seek it. 

The snowstorm names this year have not provided our class with many snow sculpting opportunities.  Over the next six weeks we plan to come up with our own list of names for next years snowstorms to send to the Weather Channel!
