First snow

First snow accumulation of the season '07

First snow accumulation of the year. We got a pretty decent snow fall on Dec. 1st. A kind of dry, gritty snow that fell all day, but didn't pile to more than 3 or 4 inches deep. It was good and windy, though, and cold enough to keep us happily indoors. We've obviously still not "gone native."

It's 20°F (-7°C) out right now, according to NOAA with a wind chill of 9°F (-13°C). Tomorrow we're expecting an Alberta Clipper to come through with some more of the white stuff. Glad I'll be working from home, since the morning commute gets so much more "interesting" when it snows during rush hour.

Speaking of working from home... break is over. Time to make myself useful.
