Weather Today

Here is the view from my office a few short hours ago. Today matt's office is closed and so I had the nanny stay home as well. They can handle snow here but no one wants to drive in the icy stuff which is smart. Any way, this morning we had a bunch of sleet and it turned to the snow you see coming down this afternoon. I think we are supposed to get some more this afternoon. Thank goodness I made hte agreement with Matt before moving up here that I was NOT shoveling snow. HE actually loves to get out there in the morning and do it. Uh, not me. I am sure there will come a time but for now.... I have avoided it.

Oh, and I have learned there are different types of snow...puffy, more wet snow and the dry snow. The puffy, wet snow results in sticking to the trees and making it really beautiful. That typically happens when it is close to or slightly above freezing. We had about 1.5 hours of the puffy stuff today. I hear TX had some bad weather yesterday though.
