We woke up this morning to rain. Lots of it coming down hard. As we watched we saw it change to sleet. The ice piled up on the bottom's around trees and on the grass.
 |
| 15 minutes |
15 minutes later the sleet turned to snow!
 |
| 30 minutes |
The snow piled up and started to cover the grass.
 |
| 45 minutes |
The tips of the grass are only slightly visible.
 |
| 1 hour |
The grass is no longer visible.
By the end of the day we had lovely white snow covering everything. The roads were treacherous and there were several 50+ car pile ups locally. We made the determination to stay in all day. Fortunately, JoAn had the day off and Paul only goes to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays. All the schools were closed as they knew the storm was coming. Don't know which number snow day this was, but we have had a lot this year!
We live on a state route. It is normally well plowed an salted. Tonight you could barely see any tracks from vehicles. I did see a snowmobile zipping down the road followed by a car. Winter will soon be over and it will be time for spring and getting the garden ready. I can't wait!!!!
