...and it's supposed to continue until tomorrow night. Northeast Colorado, by the way.

3. I hope it's not too bad for you on the way home later!
I'm getting ready to shovel a path from the front door to the mailbox.

6. Lucky me, home office.
Good thing I stocked up when they changed the forecast, my wiper motor quit so going out in this isn't an option!

18. Good deal!!!
We're retired so I went shopping Monday for the odds and ends. I figured it would be a madhouse at the store Tuesday. Now we can stay home till it melts over the weekend.

Yipes on that wiper motor! Since we've already had snow about 4 or 5 times this month, I hope you can be ready for the months ahead.

7. Snowing like crazy in Boulder county.
We shoveled the back porch this morning & you can't even tell. Wondering if it's worth shoveling the front this afternoon, since it's supposed to snow all night & will be very deep & heavy if we don't do two sessions.

I'm ready for summer. ;)

Stay warm!! :hi:

17. There's a layer of slush at the bottom
So I figured to make a small path out to the front. This way it won't turn to an inch of hard ice overnight. But it's heavy so I took a shovelful off the top and then got to the bottom. I can keep up with that path from time to time this afternoon and should be a breeze.

Be careful out there! :D

10. Wimp! We had snow in New England 2 weeks ago!
Of course, it was gone by the afternoon but...

Seriously - that's a lot of snow for this time of year! Be safe on your way home.

12. About the same here in NM. Winter is here.
There's no snow here in the valley, but the mountains are turning white.

16. This is probably the most wet and sloppy snow storm I've ever seen.
I hope it stops soon.
