out the basement door. We're about halfway through this thing. Maybe a foot so far? Lots of drifting, so it's hard to gauge.

Wow.
Been following this on the internet - it's quite remarkable. The BBC website had some interesting advice: Some tips on surviving a snowstorm: 1.Make sure you have at least three gallons of drinking water per person, per day 2.Tape the windows with bubble wrap to keep the heat in 3.Use your dog to measure the snowfall ?! I assume if you don't have a dog you could use a child?

 . KPH is to speed what the peso is to money. It sounds like a lot until you figure out what you need to buy a loaf of bread.It's time to go back to your roots and use Imperial measurements. Foot = king's foot League = average distance to nearest soccer stadium

It's funny that we were both posting about measurements at the same time.

Nope. In Blighty we measure small things in cm and metres (note spelling!) but bigger things in miles so I was thinking Mph, definitely. I think it is because we didn't want to go the all the public expense of changing all of the road signs ... Anyhow, WB Rich! Long time no see (maybe I've been hanging out in the wrong fora?).

Our snow started off with rain turning to freezing rain, then to snow.
We got very lucky that the snow was very dry. I guess the rain sucked all the moisture out of the storm in our neck o' the woods?
