Stephen,

The temperature yesterday was 64 degrees. The temp fell today to around 24 at 3:00 or so this afternoon.

I received the stickers. Thank you very much. They will help with the field coding in the field.

Be safe out there, and stay warm. I guess I will see you at the Conference in March.

Jimmy

It dropped 15 degrees in an hour in Chattanooga yesterday. We pressed on. The snow breeze broke the umbrella I was attempting to shield the instrument with. I prefer cold weather over intense heat but that rapid temperature drop was tough even for me to adapt to.
