Snowing and Blowing - The Blizzard of 2015


Yes, the meteorologists were right. There was a whole lot of snowing and blowing going on for the last two days. Now the sun is shining and it's time to shovel. In fact, I just came in from tackling part of my driveway. With my trusty yardstick, I measured the snow in several places. The lowest measurement was 22.5. The third of the driveway closest to the street measured 30.5, and the middle section measured 26.5.  I'll try to post a few photos later after the shoveling is done.
 Update: The driveway is done!!!!!!! After that workout, I won't have to go to the gym for at least a few days. Thankfully, the snow was light but very deep.There is a drift behind my garage that has buried the picnic table, and I'm thinking it's probably four feet deep. I took this photo from the side yard. The snow on this side is probably three feet.


The metereologists are hinting at a few more possible storms. Where will we put the snow????

The Blizzard of 2015


Oh my goodness!!! We're in for it !!! Words heard all day that you never want to hear from meteorologists . . .

A Potential Storm of Historic Proportions

Possible 18 - 24+ inches

Snow falling at the rate of an inch or two per hour

One for the record books

It's enough to give even hardy New Englanders pause.  Driving home from my flute lesson this morning I passed an ominous highway sign flashing  . . . 

                                                   BLIZZARD COMING! PREPARE!

Well, I hit the grocery store yesterday and I've battened down the hatches, so now it's just a matter of waiting. . . Stay safe and warm everyone.
