Well, yesterday we were buried in snow with much unhappiness. Power was out for about 10 hours. We got over a foot and 1/2 or so. Now, coming from the frozen tundra of NH, a foot and a 1/2 of snow is generally "no big deal." Well are these special "issues" in the VA area. Generally, when you weather conducive to snow, it is because the temperature is slightly below freezing. In later days, the temperature rises enough to melt the snow in the daytime, then freezes at night, making ice. Ice is a problem. Snow is not. You can see what our place looked like filled with snow at this handy link.

Any bits of snow forecast or real causes rushes on supermarkets by those chanting "bread, milk, toilet paper" which occurred all over the East Coast this time, because it was a real storm.

Schools are closed. We're "dug out." Our power is back. We are ok. Hope y'all are also ok. Hang in there.
