October snow 2011

















Before sunrise and after, SWAC Daughter and I roamed around the yard taking pictures and enjoying the snow. It started yesterday afternoon around 5:30, continued all night, and is still snowing hard this morning. There's about 3" of snow on the deck furniture that had not yet been put away, and tree limbs are drooping to the ground. The electricity flashed several times during the night and again this morning, and reports are of scattered outages in the Waynesboro area.

Even being the snow lover that I am, it's surreal to look outside and see jack-o-lanterns and snow. My inner six-year-old is yipping with excitement at the white flakes that continue to fall. The temperature is still sitting at 32 degrees and expected to be a high of 38 today and in the mid-20s tonight.
