It also equals by the time the second storm is over, somewhere around 15-18 inches of snow. Yes, winter has arrived in New England and this year I don't even think global warming could keep us from having a white Christmas with only four days to go.
On the plus side, with the snow coming in two storms, it at least has given us a chance to clean up in between instead of having to do one big dig of the total snowfall. Since I have no need to brave the storm I plan to wait it out inside today. There's a chance the snow will turn to sleet for a while so I'll leave snow removal until it's all over so the sleet can fall on the snow instead of potentially making a cleaned surface slickery.
Jak has already been out a few times. He's such an easy dog (at least when it comes to weather) and is not bothered by whatever faces him when his portal to the outside world is swung open for him. He does however have a lot of long hair on his feet which invites the snow to get balled up in between his toes, making it hard for him to walk. So when that happens it's time to come in and get warmed up.
Here are a few pictures I took this morning. Warm wishes to you on the snowy winter day!

I know you don't want to hear this, but I'm a LITTLE bit envious. A snowy day is such a cozy thing, especially if you don't have to go anywhere. Walking the dog doesn't count, as long as you can return to a warm cozy house. Great pictures.
Well nothing like that out our window here! But I'm happy cause it's the shortest day of the year today... summer's officially on it's way!!
If you can get there, I would like some 'snow' pictures of 'Old Lilac'!
Our first 'cold' day in Plano. Down to twenty last night and the sun is shinny today.
