Shouldn't freeze or frost here tonight so the brooder bulb will not be needed on our banana trees.

Southwestern Ohio currently at 3°. Supposed to get up to about 25° today and a little sunny. we have a foot of snow on the ground. I am a little concerned about my rather hefty four-year-old Nigerian dwarf goats. They are in an enclosed area of the barn. That is not insulated. They have lots of hay to eat and straw as bedding and draft blockers. I’ve left whole bales of hay there to block drafts. I’ve heard you should not put blankets or coats on them. Their fur is fluffed up. But the thinner one does shiver a little bit. I also feed them a little grain twice a day and they have a heated water bucket. Any suggestions on keeping them warm or? Or should I be concerned at 3° we’re gonna have several nights like that.

From what I know, goats are pretty tough animals. I hope this link helps ease your mind

UFO-shaped clouds form over Queensland's Darling Downs as BOM predicts more rain​

It looks like a UFO, or an alien ship, but these oddly-shaped clouds snapped by locals west of Brisbane this morning are an indicator of Queensland's wild weather.

Kylie Craig Menkins photographed the storm cell from Gowrie Junction, near Toowoomba on the Darling Downs, about 5am.

She jokingly captioned it with "aliens come down", but told the ABC the spectacular display made her day.

"It was absolutely beautiful," she said.

Ken Manteit also snapped photos of the other-worldly cloud formation from Yalangur Lilyvale Road looking towards Oakey.

"It was so weird," his wife Roxanne said.

Kevin Humphrey's photos of the storm cell at Glencoe, south-east of Oakey, were posted to social media with the caption "Spaceship at Glencoe".

"I thought it looked a bit UFOish," he said.

Daniel Hayes from the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) said a "series of storms" over the Darling Downs on Thursday morning was what caused these "photogenic clouds".

"They can sometimes look quite weird in shape, and definitely look a bit like a UFO or a spaceship," he said.

What do they mean?​

Mr Hayes said the phenomena — known as arcus or shelf clouds — was a sign to check your weather app for any active warnings.

While the clouds weren't necessarily a cause for concern, "the strength of the gust front is often what brings damaging winds".

"You'll often get that cool breeze come through ahead of a big thunderstorm during these summer periods," Mr Hayes said.

"That's cold air coming down, out of the storm itself, moving ahead of [it]."

He said other types of clouds, like lenticular clouds, could also present in a unique shape — but this particular formation was generally associated with a thunderstorm.
