4° very windy with a bunch of snow and lots of drifting. This morning my living room window which is quite high off the ground is almost completely blocked by a large drift..

Rained here yesterday and all night, we do need it. Michelle checked the garden and high tunnel, a single layer greenhouse with no heat. She had made hoops inside and out over the rows with remay over then and sandbagged down. A good bit of greens made it, some violas were blooming inside. Amazing.

Did I say soft? My 6-8 inches of packed down snow on my woods road,is now 6-8 inches of mush,snow mush.  ;D And this is before a steady rain we are suppose to get today. 42°
Seem good to open up the OWB and there is still plenty of wood in it. Those singles numbers day after day,chewed through some wood.

We only got 6-8" of new snow but I pushed back drifts that were to the mirrors on the plow truck. Took the better part of the day to get everything cleaned up and the drifts pushed back all while the sun shined and the wind howled, now it's snowing hard again and still blowing.  Probably be lots of drifting again tomorrow.

Just 10° here this morning!

Been snowing all night, and still coming down, there's around 8 - 10 inches on the garage roof now, there was none there yesterday afternoon!

I just wish it had gotten cold before the snow started adding up!

UPDATE 7:35:  Just took mail out to the box, the snow was almost to the top of my boots, boots are 14"!
The snowplow just went up through, now the snowbank at the road is a little over 2 feet high!
I'll be out there for a while clearing what we have, and it's still coming down heavy!

6 F here right now, yesterday mid afternoon we had 62 F and light rain. Been snowing all night. A week ago we had -15, then yesterday and the day before it was real warm, now super cold again. The body can't adjust to changes that fast. This is weather that often gets people sick (not just sick of it).

Wooohooo!!!!!!!!!!! We're up to -21°C and no nasty wind so far. Feels tropic after -44°C.

I was in MN, WI, and SD with my son the last few days and that was some bitter cold down there with the wind. I won't complain about our wind for a while. Here you might hold the wheel over slightly to correct (while driving) but down there I think I might have been holding the wheel a half turn or so?  ;D

Finally got the driveway cleared!

We ended up with 12" of snow!

So, the snow-cover is back, just wish the ground would have stiffened up before that much snow!
