Perhaps. As long as all the lighting is LED, that panel looks like it might be large enough to stock storage batteries that would cover the lighting for a few hours. It wouldn't do much more, though. That's not a very big panel.Quote:

Also, when we do get precipitation it generally isn't cold enough for it to fall as snow. What snow we do get seems to melt off by noon unless an inversion sets in and keeps a cold pocket of air trapped around us. For those who don't know, a cold pocket is like a hot pocket: There are lots of chunks of things floating around that you can't recognize, it's a bit soupy, and you have to heat it in an oven before it becomes hot. The nutritional value is about the same, though. With the sugar factory a few miles away, which processes sugar beets into sugar, an inversion that lasts long enough results in air so rich that you get about 50 calories/breath, along with 5% of the US RDA of beet.
Does the beet juice get atomized also? Do you get red snow?
I hear they have red snow in china.
Never mind. Don't beet your self up over it.
These beets are white. I hear they aren't all that palatable, though I've never tried eating one myself.
Everybody panic: The World Is Running Out Of Chocolate
I was actually aware of that due to a tour of a chocolate factory in St. Augustine on my honeymoon.Quote:

It's 51 degrees today and it's freezing! We have a low today of 28!!!
I can't wait until Friday, it'll warm up to 72.
It was 44 degrees this morning at eight. The sun warmed things up to a high of 55, but it clouded over and the temp has dropped again. Wind is about 10 mph making it cooler.
Thank goodness my new apartment has good heat. I'll post some pics tomorrow if I get up in time.
I'm in the UK.
So it's raining.
