What was that you said about "No Snow"?

I'm not complaining a whole lot because I actually kind of like it but when we moved up here, the neighbors told us that in the five years they'd been living up here there had never been snow. Now, we're in our second winter up here and we've gotten snow both seasons. This picture (ok, it's really just a snapshot) here is of the snow we're getting *RIGHT NOW* outside this window next to me.

And, on the local radar, there was one tiny little blob of yellow and it was right over us. It made me chuckle.

The snow should be gone by tomorrow afternoon--despite the record low temperatures we're supposed to get tonight. Supposed to be down into the low 20's upper-teens. BRRR!

On the plus side, the snow will act as a light insulation for some of these plants and keep the ground from getting too much below freezing.
