She's thrilled! They usually get rain when folks just to the west of them get snow. <br /><br />Finally quit raining here (went north!), but cold enough that we're seeing a little snow/sleet mix on the radar.

Guard has been called out, at least one of the larger counties has issued a "No civilian vehicles on the roads" decree, even Metro has shut down -- and, yes, it is still snowing. And snowing. <br /><br />I can only clear away part of the patio, just to get it away from the back doors,it's coming down too fast. Cleaned off front porch twice and shoveled just out to the driveway. <br /><br />And Kris is right, very light and fluffy and blowing like crazy. <br /><br />:)Kathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08974038903187252059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18232353.post-79512352984713706142009-12-19T12:28:39.853-07:002009-12-19T12:28:39.853-07:00I think the snow has driven everyone in Congress t...I think the snow has driven everyone in Congress to the looney bin!<br /><br />Even though the ground is still a little soggy-ish, it's sunny and in the 50s here -- beautiful!Moogie Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05665429537064900337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18232353.post-45392739197427644152009-12-19T12:20:54.762-07:002009-12-19T12:20:54.762-07:00Yeah - our forecast here in southeast CT is 10-20 ...Yeah - our forecast here in southeast CT is 10-20 inches. And it's very cold so it will be light and fluffy.<br /><br />I'm hopeful for that as we have to travel to MA - about 50 miles - to see The Oracle's family tomorrow.<br /><br />We are hunkered down now - woodstove is running, plenty of gas for the generator, Jeep is in the garage so we don't have to clear it off tomorrow.Kris, in New Englandhttp://www.reflectionsbykris.squarespace.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18232353.post-83204595541576895562009-12-19T12:20:02.952-07:002009-12-19T12:20:02.952-07:00I'm in Richmond and the official measurement o...I'm in Richmond and the official measurement on my deck is 8 1/2 inches - my sister lives closer to Charlottesville and as of this a.m. had 20 inches w/snow still falling.
