NWS storm report says we got about 12 inches of snow, which appears to be about right. The wind is really strong outside and although it's no longer snowing, the wind is really whipping the existing snow around. There are several drifts across the driveway, including one nearly 28 inches (70 cm) deep!


That's a yard stick sticking out of the snow bank.

I'll take more pictures later; it's much too cold right now. It's about 6°F (-14.3°C) outside right now, with winds gusting to 22 mph (35.4 kph), making for a windchill of -11°F (-24°C).

I'll grant you that's a pretty good dumping of snow, but it's only -14.3°C outside. Even with the windchill taking it down to -24°C outside, that's nothing. At least, not compared to up here where it was around -32°C last night, with a windchill below -40°C...

Brrrrrr..... %)
