Re: Here we go again!!

At 11 PM - we had 6 straight hours of sleet and I don;t believe it turned to snow till about 5-6 AM. Now we have huge flakes falling...

Well it is snowing and snowing and snowing.
Glad I don't have to go anywhere today.
Those that do have to be somewhere, please be careful.

I cleaned 5-6" of very heavy, wet snow off the drives this morning. The plows have been through, but there's about half an inch of pure ice on the roadway. As I was clearing the drive it started raining for about half an hour, then started sleeting before it changed back into big, fluffy, white snowflakes. It's been snowing that way since about 8:30 or so. Drives are already recovered with white. Schools are all closed... I imagine the roads are a real mess, locally, based on how the street out front looks.

It appears that one of the plows got a little aggressive... my mailbox is turned about 15 degrees from perpendicular to the street. Oh well, another thing to add to my spring "To-Do" list! At least they didn't knock it down completely!!!
