The lightest and most delightful snow you can imagine. Cleared approx 700 sf of decking/stairs, Then cleared the solar panels. Fed the birds and the deer. It was actual nice to enjoy the day here without a lot of wind. Although the driveway wasn't plowed, no problems with my 4wd truck to get needed supplies (wine, smokes). In spite of the current cold, comfortably warm, unlike too many fellow Americans.
Merry Christmas to all that retain the spirit.

Still, Merry Christmas to you and yours.

How glorious.

(28,481 posts)I'm in Santa Fe, the high today was about 60, some 15 degrees above normal for this time of year. While nice, it's a bit scary. The ski resorts have not been able to open, I don't think. No snow. Not cold enough to make snow. A bit depressing for the ski places.

(31,598 posts)I bet the skiing at Sugarloaf was fantastic today. You don't get these kind of snowfalls here very often.

(1,678 posts)we are breaking all kinds of heat records, with no appreciable snow yet........
The Ski areas are mostly open, but only on the runs with man made snow
Future forecasts are showing more of the same............
Snow pack, so far, not anywhere near normal........Phoenix, Las Vegas, and SoCal better start immediately rationing their water rationing even more, .....
