Rained what looks like a couple inches last night. Cold wind overnight. But the weather bureau has dropped the freezing rain advisory. Rain forced into goat shelter, their bedding was a quagmire this morning. While renewing the straw supply, I pulled out one of the smaller goats, (25#), she was suffering from hypothermia.

Maybe I'll hold off on the goats until a couple weeks later, and do them myself. We lost a couple of goats a few years back due to hypothermia when we had a cold rain just after shearing. They're apparently particuly vunerable to cold.
