I didn’t measure, but everything at the top of the fence is new.

More Snow
Harriet is not amused. It’s so deep in the back yard that she can’t even squat when she pees. And it’s still coming down. The grounds crew shoveled the walks this morning, but now there’s another inch or so of snow.
Lamp Post
I noticed yesterday morning that there were icicles hanging from the lamp posts behind the library, but I was already late for work, so I didn’t try getting a photo. This morning, I was early.
Vrooooom!
My car started beautifully, as if nothing had ever happened. I cleared it off and went for a drive, to make sure A) it had time to warm up completely and B) that the battery had a chance to get a decent charge. Huge relief! Plus, it was kinda nice to get out, even though some of the side roads are a little iffy.
And speaking of, as I was driving down Smith Road, which is seriously iffy in spots, some asstrumpet was clearing his driveway with a little tractor. Only, he was pushing the snow into the road. Nice! Between the giant, newborn potholes and the mountain of snow IN THE ROAD, the drive was a little more exciting than I had anticipated.
Snow Fairy
We actually ended up getting 3-4 inches of snow. More than I thought we’d get. And they’ve plowed our parking lot, which is sort of miraculous.
Snow Day
It snowed today. A fair amount, too. I think it’s pretty much done now, though, which is good. I’ve got a dental appointment at 8am, so it would be nice if the roads would stay clear. It looks like it’s not supposed to be as cold in the morning as was earlier forecast, which is also good! It may not seem like much of a difference, but 11F is a whole lot warmer than 3F.
Now, I just have to decide whether I’m going to make up time working tomorrow or Saturday. Hmmm.

From My Patio
It isn’t a whole lot of snow, but it also isn’t rain, and for that I am thankful. I’m sick and tired of rain, rain, rain.
Belt of Venus
It was snowing when I left for work, but even in the pre-dawn dark, I could see the clouds breaking up. By the time the sun rose, the sky was mostly clear. Clear skies are nice, but they also mean cold weather. It was 11F when I got to work. Don’t know what the wind chill was, but it was cold.
Delayed Nosypantsing
Coworker A asked me if it was supposed to snow tonight. I looked at Weather.com and gave her the newest forecast. Then, about an hour later, Coworker B informed me that her weather forecaster of choice said something entirely different. Why on earth should I care? I wasn’t the one who wanted to know whether or not it was going to snow, and the person who did want to know left over an hour ago. And besides which, who on earth waits an hour to poke their nose into someone else’s conversation?
WTF?
