Blizzard Redux

Wasn't it last weekend that I saw some reference on a blog to the fact that most of the last 15 big blizzards have been on weekends?

I should have said at the time--be careful what you wish for.... It's 5:00 P.M. here, and still snowing intensely. Because we haven't shoveled much today (my muscle pull is still recovering, and ESR is trying not to get one), and haven't been far from the front door, it's hard to judge--but we've gotten over a foot since last night, at least. It might be more. And it hasn't looked as though it might be stopping since around lunchtime when it slowed to a flurry. We thought that might be the end of it. Silly us.

If this goes on till midnight we will have two feet of new snow, and might be heading toward three.

At least we have food, warmth, and each other. And the cat.

We had 16 inches of new snow at 4PM. And it hasn't slowed down any. I can easily believe we're going to get the maximum prediction of 24 inches. On top of the foot or more we still had.

"And the cat." For when you're really hungry.
