THRONE WEATHER — your daily forecast from the Kingdom Weather Desk.
Today: a first flurry, light and unserious, drifting down over the rooftops and melting before it can settle anywhere important. Wrap up warm, take the sunny side of the street, and do not be fooled by the brightness — the air has a bite to it now.
Tonight: clear and cold, and the fire-rings — great rings of golden fire, drifting slow through the dark — are keeping a little higher than usual tonight, as if they too have decided that flurry weather is best admired from a distance. Count them from a window, the Desk suggests, with a warm drink in hand.
The outlook: more cold by the end of the week, with the rings expected to drift low again once the flurry passes. The Desk notes, with feeling, that the young ones love counting rings best of all — a fine excuse to take the grandchildren out, or to read a story together when you get back inside.
