6-12 inches tonight!!! Yay!!!

Get your minds out of the gutter! SNOW !!! It will help with the single digit temperatures that are forecast here by insulating the ground. Hopefully, it sticks around and the freezing rain doesn’t muck things up. I did get my trees winterized so I’m not too worried. But, with the cold sticking around for some time to come it could be the coldest stretch in many years around here. Good luck to all those who are about to get blasted with cold.

I was like "OH - sounds like a 1 nite stand's going down.

Hope your trees don't wake up too late!

I got 8 inches total. I just got a new weather warning on my phone. Snow is finished but we’re going to get high winds now around 40mph. Are you getting wind too?

No real wind yet, but the snow is picking up again. Hopefully shoveling tomorrow isn’t too much of a job.

Hmm… gotta be a guy thing. My first thought was rain, which is definitely a California thing. I read your title and almost shed a tear at the wonder of it, but then I was like, no, we must conserve the water.

Enjoy your snow!

This snow is Hitting the Mid Atalantic area that can really use it to recover from the severe drought that we experienced this year. Snow is great for recovering ground water levels as it soaks in nice and slowly as it melts.

Yes, snow is great, sounds like it’s timely.

Snow cover is good. It insulates the ground and protects roots. I hate shoveling it!

It also fertilizes the ground. It’s sometimes called the “poor man’s fertilizer “.

I think you’re thinking of yellow snow…

 

[Figless]

You're right Teresa though I never understand why rain and snow are fertilizers, but I have it on excellent Authority that they are. I thought my recent 2 weeks in the north of Oregon put me in the cold weather Club. But I can see what's coming in the Mid Atlantic area is going to be off the chart in comparison.
