As of noon today in DC. Not too impressive, but the day's still young.

Right outside the door.

We mostly get freezing fog up here on the Idaho/Washington border. Nothing worth taking pictures of. The resulting black ice on the roads does make driving into work entertaining at times.

Jim's still driving home. I can't believe they let him go already, what if someone suddenly realizes they need a 4WD?? :rolleyes: |
It's been snowing fast since a little bit before 1100.
At around 1530, I realized that I had to go and get the mail, so I decided to use the time to wander around a little bit. http://scribe.fork.org/cellar/snow0001.JPG http://scribe.fork.org/cellar/snow0005.JPG The ducks don't seem to be minding it too much. http://scribe.fork.org/cellar/snow0006.JPG http://scribe.fork.org/cellar/snow0007.JPG It's important to know when you've had enough. Irish Coffee is probably just the thing. But I'm too impatient. I'll be drinking the Bushmill's straight out of the bottle. |
Good ones wolf :thumbsup:
|
We got all that stuff yesterday--6 inches of it. They've said were to have 4-6 more by tomorrow, with freezing rain thrown in for good measure. Great pics, all of them. Wolf, I'd love to join you in a bottle or two as drinking is the only sensible thing you can do while waiting for the snow!

Perhaps a new thread should now be started called, "Words of wisdom written under the influence." :D

Let's see, it's, uh... 65-70 degrees or so in my neck o' the woods today...

It's getting pretty nasty out there. I just stepped out to take this picture of the back yard, thermometer says about 8 degrees, the wind is picking up and well, you can see what the snow is doing. :(
|
It has been about 13-15 degrees here all day long, and the wind was blowing at 30 mph until late afternoon.
Its a dry cold, though. :yelsick: |
About 11 inches and calm at the moment.
In front of my house is an intersection. One road makes a 130 deg, decreasing radius bend and the other road intersects in the opposite direction from the outlet of the turn. Unless you're going the other way. :rollanim: Anyway, the intersecting road goes so up a short but deceptively steep hill. Every time they get a new plow driver, he/she will try to plow up the hill and make the turn, at which time the rear wheels slide off into embarrassment. Sometimes they realize they are slipping and stop. Then they back into embarrassment. 3 hours ago I noticed a plow was embarrassed. four other plows had stopped to commiserate. With all those flashing lights they light up the 'hood. Now there is 2 very large wreckers trying to yank it out. Hi yo PennDOT.....delay! :corn: I added the spot where the plow was stuck. Backed into the stop sign and buried the rear wheels in the dirt up to the axle. Newbies! |
Git yer shovels out!
And Merlin is one cuuuuuuute doggie! |
Guess I better shovel before I want to be in cozy warmth watching the Eagle's game ...
There's a car in here somewhere ... http://scribe.fork.org/cellar/snowa011.JPG Oh, here it is ... http://scribe.fork.org/cellar/snowa012.JPG http://scribe.fork.org/cellar/snowa013.JPG http://scribe.fork.org/cellar/snowa014.JPG Made it out :) There was about a foot of snow to shovel to make a path to the space to the rear of the one I was trapped in, and at least five feet to the front. I'm no dummy. Backed right out. Okay, not right out ... took a couple tries and all the skill I could muster along with the traction control system's help ... Backing uphill was not as easy as it looked. http://scribe.fork.org/cellar/snowa016.JPG And parked it illegally. http://scribe.fork.org/cellar/snowa018.JPG MomWolf's is just going to have to thaw out. http://scribe.fork.org/cellar/snowa015.JPG |
First thing this morning I took a picture of the cedar tree outside my window. This is one of my standard "Hey, it snowed!" pictures.
http://scribe.fork.org/cellar/snowa002.JPG At least the squirrels haven't stolen the feeder yet. I expect them to chew through the string any minute now. I have had the local squirrels destroy $40 "squirrel proof" feeders, so I just buy a bunch of the $1.99 ones at Walmart and take my chances. They stole my suet cage last year, which had been secured to a metal bracket with a chain. My fault, because I didn't have the foresight to weld the links closed. http://scribe.fork.org/cellar/snowa007.JPG Somewhere under the snow is a very cute planter, shaped like a bunny. The lump in the right foreground is my grill. I will be using the George Foreman for the next few months, I think. http://scribe.fork.org/cellar/snowa008.JPG The bottom half of that cedar ... http://scribe.fork.org/cellar/snowa009.JPG Looks like we did get a little warming going on. The big guy there is about 3-1/2 feet. http://scribe.fork.org/cellar/snowa022.JPG |

That's a right impressive snow trench you've got doubling as a sidewalk there, Jinx.

We got 24 inches. I had to take some pics...Look at the buried car that you can see form our windshield view. I feel sorry for whoever has to dig their car out of that.

Here's one I don't get. This is the well cap in my backyard that the wind somehow made a snow moat around. Mother nature works in mysterious ways, huh?
