<DIV><FONT size=2>Here is a graphic from Steve Shook's nearby weather station <A
href="http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstation/WXDailyHistory.asp?ID=KIDMOSCO3">http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstation/WXDailyHistory.asp?ID=KIDMOSCO3</A> showing
the sudden drop. Because of elevation, vegetation, and geomorphological
features, the weather differs from the Shook's and our home, sometimes quite a
bit although, we are less than 1/2 mile apart.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>I once experienced a drop from 55 to 20 in the southern
California mountains just outside Loa Angeles in less than 5 minutes coming up
into a pass from the lee side and hitting it the same time as the cold front
from the northwest hit on the weather side. By the time I made the
peak about 25 minutes later, 8 inches of snow had fallen. One hour later,
the sky was almost clear and the temperature in the 50s again.</FONT></DIV>
