Storms Number Two & Three... Feb. 10, 2010

The storm's halfway through it's number two following the big one last weekend. This picture was taken at 1:30 pm about fifteen minutes after I shoveled that pathway. The blizzard's kicked in full power and will end around 7pm this evening. I'm upstairs now in front of the fireplace, listening to some Hayden with a hot drink as the wind roars out there. Interesting winter in Lancaster. Good to sit here in a home built in the mid 19th century that's worked its way through a bunch of weather. The snow flakes are tiny outside the window, like salt being shaken... no tossed by the handful around the windows. Time for another drink.....

And later...

Actually this was two storms which came down the chute one after another. The first started last night, and the second around ten this morning. The second was the kicker. WHOOF! It's over now. Blizzard thing. Piles of snow and blasts of wind. Here's me. Rita sort of went into hibernation last weekend when the first storm exploded. I handed her the new 7D and she poked her head out of our nest long enough to snap me moving our little piece of this white from the back yard (Rocco needs his space) and then from empty N. Lime St. During rush hour - we took these two at around 5. Not a vehicle in sight.

Cool!

She didn't see her shadow. Hmmmm.... wonder what that means about the weather forecast?

Just wait Ted - I think I got you beat again. As soon as I can dig myself out of my house (my husband is in Haiti and I am all alone!) I will take some pictures. Mind you, yours are mighty impressive! Wasn't that wind horrendous?

tasmania doesnt get such snow - not where we live ... we do have a 'ski slope' two hours drive away and i can see the snow on the mountains (when it comes) .. meantime we are in heatwave conditions ...

enjoying your cool photos though ...
