It’s a snow day today. Both our works are closed due to a winter storm. Here’s how it looked around 2 o’clock this afternoon:
Those footprints are from a delivery guy who had dropped off a package earlier. There’s about 8-10 inches of snow and it’s still falling as I write this.
Anyway I had work to do:
The snow thrower had no trouble moving the snow and it didn’t take me long to clear the driveway. Although I usually enjoy the task it was unpleasant today since it was bitterly cold (20F), which is why I wore that stupid balaclava 🙂
I wonder how much snow we’ll get in total? And whether the next storm (on Sunday) will be as big?
Update: I had to clear the driveway again today since we had a few more inches fall since yesterday afternoon. Here’s a shot of the house today:
All told we had about a foot of snow. It’s very cold – below freezing is forecast for the next week – so it will likely stay around for a while.
I can’t get over how thick that snow is. You look very cold indeed. Meanwhile here in Australia the state of Adelaide is going through extreme temperatures of 43 to 45 degrees. When I was a little girl growing up I thought the weather was the same everywhere. If it rained in Newcastle it rained all around the world! How wrong I was.
It’s cold here too, although just a light jacket is enough when you go outside.
I could not tolerate that amount of snow and having to move it, what a pain.
