3:15 pm - 36 degrees - thick clouds...
We are once again in between
storm systems. The last round of storms
brought about a foot of new snow, only problem was that it was very west snow
so it settled down to about 5” of snow slush – looks like snow, but when you
step in it, your foot prints turn to slush.
The snowflakes turned into
pelting waves of freezing rain which left a ¼” of ice over everything.
Then the wind started to howl,
along with the pelting waves of freezing rain, you started to hear the pop and
crack of branches breaking all around from the strain of the heavy ice.
