I woke up to 8 inches of snow, blustery winds, and freezing fog. 2-4 more inches are predicted during the day. It is still snowing hard. All city/county (not college) schools are cancelled. Where did this come from, and don't say "up."
Just yesterday I was wondering why anyone would live anywhere else than here! It was sunny and in the upper 30s and felt wonderful. All of the weekend's snow was melted off of the roads.
By the time this storm is done I'll have a foot of snow to scoop which will probably blow back over my driveway overnight. I'm feeling Scroogeish again. I miss sunshine.
Bah! Humbug!
Don't get me wrong....I am so very thankful I don't have to drive anywhere. There are traffic accidents galore! And it is beautiful.
Here is the view from my backyard at 8 AM. I had to scoop a path out back for the dog as the snow is belly-deep for her. The path snowed in while I was still scooping. I'll wait til afternoon for the big job of driveway and sidewalk. In Colorado you must get used to living in a snow-globe.
2 PM, maybe 16-18 inches so far and still snowing, but driveway is scooped for the moment. The snow is well above the dog's belly.
View from my back door......
