White Christmas

Wednesday, December 24th, 2008

Well its for real - we are going to have a white Christmas, and MORE than that we’re going to have the whitest Christmas ever!  The record is a measly 1.5 inches, and we’ve still got at least 15 inches here - 7 inches fell on Sunday night/Monday morning.  I tried to measure how much total there was, but I got stopped by the layer of ice we had on top of the snow we got on… last Wednesday?  The days are mushing together.

We got about 2-3 more inches of snow today.  Things are starting to warm up across the region, but here its still below freezing.  Our garbage can is under the gutters, under a giant icicle (we removed it once already), and it is covered by about 6 inches of ice.  Its just incredible.  They’re forecasting snow tomorrow (and rain), and some snow on Friday too!  Crazy!

Here’s some pictures of the last few days - I am trying to keep track of what day is which, but my brain is slush. Haha a snow reference!

ACK can’t get the picture uploader to work!  I’ll try again later…

edit: Ah ha it works! I upgraded, borked it, and then reuploaded everything and now it works! A Christmas miracle!
