The snow warning turned out to be for real. We accumulated near 10" (sounds like a lot more if I say 20 cm.). and today it's blowing and drifting. Our caregiver couldn't get here this morning, and maybe no-one tonight. But our snowblower guy did come, so Mrs. F.G. has gone out for a bit.
I tried to get two different views to show you how much it's accumulating, but I'm getting tired of taking pictures of just white! Luckily I do have my last two Arctic posts almost ready to go, so you'll get something different. Meantime, take care in this crazy winter weather.
We did keep track of birds for the Geat Backyard Bird Count, and saw a total of 4 species - several Chickadees, plus one Cardinal, one Red-bellied Woodpecker, and one White-breasted Nuthatch. Oh, and one Crow.
The drifting is always bad around here. Snow without wind is such a strange thing.
ReplyDeleteI sure hope this awful weather lets up soon. No PT for you, no heat for just about everyone in Texas, and subzero temperatures all the way into the deep south! We are finally beginning to come out of our freeze, and now the snow has turned into standing water in the streets. :-(
ReplyDeleteSeems like everywhere is covered with snow and ice today!!
ReplyDeleteIt's fairly similar here at the moment. The snow is starting to clear out.
ReplyDeleteI hear you on the white photos. The cold snap has snapped here and we're expecting snow overnight but not much, and certainly not 20 cm. thank goodness. Take care, stay well!
ReplyDeleteI try to do the same thing, white is white! haha
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to say 'don't hold your breath, my friend' - I think there's more a-comin'.
Yes, winter's getting old now -- but spring's on its way. Eagerly awaiting your arctic posts.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean by getting tired of taking pictures of 'just white'.
ReplyDeleteIt was 16 degrees C here yesterday! Ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteThat is an impressive accumulation on the fence. I hope things get back to normal for you today.
ReplyDeleteoooooh dear, that's an impressive amount of snow, although, we have gotten more. i am sure you have as well!!
ReplyDeletei have enjoyed photographing the snow so far and i still want more!! and it's coming, tonight and tomorrow!!!
Hopefully things will start to thaw out soon so you can get out and about.
ReplyDeleteBe Safe and Enjoy!
It's about time.
It was a bit of a dump, wasn't it? Pretty today, with the sun out.
ReplyDeleteOh my you have a bunch of snow! We don't have that much!
