Round 2...and records fall!


Well, if nothing else we've set a record for single-season snow fall at all three area airports. The latest bout of snow came in at around 10 inches at home, but it was hard to measure since there aren't any good flat bare surfaces to start from!

This storm also brought high winds, so we had near white-out conditions during much of the day. There were interesting little "snow-nadoes" whistling down the street on several occasions. Apart from a power glitch this morning, everything seems to be online for now. Hope it stays that way.

I've done a round of shoveling the sidewalks, and this time the snow is pretty powdery, so it's a bit easier on the back. We'll see how things hold up tomorrow for the second dig-out. I've also spent quite a bit of time attempting to break ice dams on the gutters before they all come a-crashing down. Looks like quite a bit of work is going to have to be done once this stuff all melts.

Six more weeks to the equinox...maybe we'll see the ground by then!
