Snow!!

Okay, so I am behind the times in the blogging world, but at least for memory's sake, it is worth posting about. Last weekend we had a record snow of 26" here. Saturday's big stack just wasn't enough, so another storm came last Tuesday, and we got another 20 inches! Today, being Presidents Day, means the kids and Dustan had a day scheduled "off". This is supposed to end the long weekend of 6 days, but it has started snowing yet again this afternoon, with 3-6 inches in the forecast. So, I guess we'll see what we end up with and if there'll actually be school tomorrow or not. The whole of the East coast has broken every record this year for snow accumulation. That just meant lots of exercise and no school for us!

The picture of the nearly 22" was taken from the first storm, at around 10 AM. The snow didn't stop coming down until above 5pm, but then the winds picked up and drifting problems started. The whole storm qualified as a blizzard, and they even shut down city streets. Tuesday's storm was a blizzard too, and they shut down the highway! That is VERY unusual for this area.

Here's Ariel with the second storm on Tuesday.
