Waiting for the snow to arrive - we're under a winter weather advisory for what the local news stations are touting as a "major storm" = snow/sleet/freezing rain tonight, 1-3 inches (any amount will paralyze the region).

Wasn't worried until last night when Pixie cat (who usually sleeps on top of the covers in her hammock between my knees) demanded that I lift the blankies and let her snuggle down glued to my ribs - and fell asleep. She NEVER sleeps under the blankies. So now I'm expecting at least a blizzard, if not a glacier, to arrive tonight.

If the power goes out, at least I'll have a bed warmer ...
My regular grocery trip at 6am was not hampered by the panic, but the empty shelf space was noticeable.

Yeah - I bet the toilet paper was gone too ....

Fortunately I got my groceries in on Thursday ... although the latest views have the storm staying well south of us ... time will tell

7°C and partly sunny with no rain predicted for the next week. The weather folk tend to be so optimistic...

Our weather forecasters were warning us about this storm until last night. Now, it looks like we might get half an inch of snow. We'll see. Good luck down there!

Ended up with around a half inch of snow lightly glazed over with freezing rain - ice is melting off the tree branches now - but boy that wind is cold!

It started snowing here at 3AM and we had about half an inch by 3:30. In total we got an inch or so -- maybe a trifle more -- but it was light and dry. No rain here, but it was cold enough that we have some glare ice under the snow in places. Just enough to keep things interesting.

The high temperature tomorrow and Monday should be in the low 40s (F) so things should thaw out pretty well.
