Snow and rain...here and there...

We had snow overnight, now rain is falling, and freezing temps tonight are expected to make things icy tomorrow. Hopefully the morning commute isn't too bad, otherwise, it will be a good day to stay off the roads!

But, I saw the forecast for the summit of Kilimanjaro and it looks like things on the mountain aren't much different:
-temperatures well below freezing (expecting some colder temps later in the week)
-expecting 2cm of snow tomorrow (rain showers at lower altitudes)
-generally light winds - 15km/hr

yes, we're packing GoreTex, down jackets/sleeping bags/booties, and lots of merino wool...oh yeah, and shorts and T-shirts for the safari!
