Good news: The snow has stopped and it is clearing off.
Bad news: Because it is clearing off, it will be as cold as a brass monkey’s balls tonight.

A ‘brass monkey’ is the term for the base for stacking cannon balls in pyramid shaped stacks aboard old Naval vessels. This base was made of brass with indentations the size of the cannon balls. It prevented the cannon balls from rolling around on deck. You don’t want that.
They can get quite cold.
