Several alert readers of my East Street Weather Blog have pointed out that this morning’s photo reminded them of a nicely salted pretzel. Here’s another version of the photo with some of the more tell-tale details cropped out. Can you figure out what it is?

A big black willow toppled over down along Fargo Brook a couple of years back. The cold temperatures the other morning yielded a bumper crop of feathery frost crystals on the exposed roots over the water.

Our first frost came right on schedule the other day. This dandelion head sported a crusting of crystals.
