30 Minutes of Snow

[ohheckyeah]

We are expecting up to 12 inches of snow.

1. 12 inches of snow?

Don't you live somewhere in the South? Southerners and snow is just ain't natural! Pretty early snowfall pict thugh. Can't wait to see the bench with a foot of snow on it.

[ohheckyeah]

2. Yes...

I live in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia.

I'll post another photo later. And can I just say, I HATE snow.

3. Yikes! (12 inches!)

We're on our 3rd straight day of rain. Some of it freezing rain. Next week in the 70's!

[ohheckyeah]

4. That's pretty wild,

Solly. Freezing rain today and next week in the 70s???

If we get the 12 inches it will be the most snow I've seen in many years. The only reason I care is the possibility of losing electricity. I work from home so I don't have to go anywhere. We have a four-wheel drive truck and my husband went to the store so we're prepared. I just hate losing the water if the electricity goes out, plus, my husband gets bored. I read a lot, but he doesn't, so there's not much to do.

I hope the rain hasn't caused any flooding where you are.

5. My yard floods all the time because of rain. Never anything major so far but sloshing through

ankle deep water for several days isn't any fun. Lots of mud.

I hope y'all don't lose electricity. Makes a bad situation that much more miserable. (and deadly)

I haven't been in that much snow since 2004. It was up to my thighs then. Hated it!

Stay safe! Stay warm!

8. I'll get more when the wind dies

down. Right now it's blowing the snow sideways.

I hate snow.

We do have backup heat with the propane logs in the fireplace which is comforting.

6. This has been a horrid winter

for us up north as well as people in the south. I hope that you make it though this unscathed.

And I hope your birth control is working if you are stranded for too long with a "bored hubby".

[ohheckyeah]

7. LOL..I've been

fixed, so no worries about that.

9. It's like a damn blizzard here

with the wind blowing snow so hard you can barely see. I've gone out a few times to grab more photos and it's just impossible right now.
