Checking In - I've never seen so Much Snow


 


Hi!


All is well here so far.


''... [2 plus] Feet Of Snow, Hurricane-Force Winds Expected Tonight" [Sunday/ online notification]

Just a check in post. The blizzard is maybe almost over. I've never seen so much snow fall in one twenty-four hours. I have read reports of winds overnight at 80+ mph and possibly almost three feet of snow in coastal areas here.  Probably more like 18-24" but the drifts on my deck are as high as my head, my front door had a drift chest high against the glass storm door.  [a neighbor just now cleared it/ a safety issue, plus I m claustrophobic]The deck drifts are higher than the waist high railings, though that incudes snow that keeps falling from the roof.

If the power holds on, I think we'll be ok.

See ya soon.
love
