One hell of a snowstorm today (pics!)

Boots? Check. Fleece pants? Check. 4 layers of shirt/sweatshirt/coat? Check. Ballcap? Check. Fuzzy hat? Check. Gloves? Check. Scarf? Check. Insanity? Check. It was lovely out. :rofl:

Pic out the back of the house, and one out the front:

It thundered during our snowstorm today... Freakin' weird New England weather!

1. I'm so jealous.

All we ever get is sleet or ice, no powdery fluffy fun snow. We did back in 2000 but that was the only time I remember having any snow that wasn't mixed with hard ice and sludge.

Oh well, thanks for sharing the pictures. I love looking at snow while sitting in the warm glow of my computer.

8. Oooh, plowed in.

Boo and hiss to that! They plowed here, as far as I can tell, once this afternoon. There are still about three inches on the street :eyes: Sorry you're going to have to dig out!

10. Want me to chuck some snowballs your way? ;)

I can't imagine how weird that is to have all the winter holidays without snow or cold. They're just part of the season, for me. ***sending frozen-toes-vibes your way*** ;)

11. Nope, not too terrible

Pretty nasty to drive in, as it rained/sleeted on top of the plowed streets, so that part is gross. But not a terrible storm, no.
