Snow #2

Snow #2

1/22/2016

Our 2^nd snow of the season could bring 5-6".

Friday: Lyd prepared Margaret for the storm, which included telling her that she probably would not come over Saturday morning due to the road conditions. Margaret is nervous and we enlisted help from Bill to call and reassure her. The snow started at 1400. At 2045, the snow, as measured on the glass table in the back yard was 3.5". At 2220, it's 28 and snowing.

Backyard

Saturday: At 0645, it's 36 and the snow has changed to a light rain. The snow on the backyard table top has receded 2" from the edge, but the snow is very wet. I tried to blow a path, but the snow is wet enough that the blower plows more than throws. We satisfied city ordinance and created the required path, but that's it. Lydia did not go over to Margaret's house for her morning Rituals and Routines. At 2100, it's 28 and snowing.

Sunday: At 0641, it's 25 with 2 more inches of snow. Lyd will not go to 823 this morning either. Kate's return flight today has been canceled and she's booked through CLT and PIT tomorrow. I removed a large block of ice from the snow blower and cleared our front walk and sidewalk as well as that of the neighbors to the east and Jennifer, which used up one battery. Jennifer informed us she also has a snow blower. I did clear a path from the garage so Lyd can get her car out in the morning.
