fun with snow

as per www.weather.com

Winter storm along the Eastern Seaboard
8:30 P.M. ET 2/28/2005
Tom Moore, Sr. Meteorologist, The Weather Channel
Snow moved rapidly into Southern New England and Upstate New York on Monday evening. Parts of eastern New York, northeast Pennsylvania and interior sections of New England can expect six to ten inches of snow. Snow on Cape Cod and extreme southweast Massachusetts will change to rain overnight. Wind gusts of 50 to 60 mph at times are possible. Snow will end or change to freezing drizzle in the Baltimore-Washington area, overnight, after a relatively light accumulation. Snow will wind down before morning around Philadelphia and New York City after four to eight to inch accumulation. Parts of the Boston area may see 7 to 12 inches of snow by Tuesday morning. Heavier amounts of snow will fall in Maine late Monday night and Tuesday. Overall, snowfall from this storm, especially in the major metro areas from Washington to New York, will fall a little short of initial expectations due to an intrusion of dry air up through the Middle Atlantic region, marginal temperatures and a more easterly track of the main storm system.


as a result, check out leigh, me, and leigh's first snowman ever :-P


the snow was powdery and not good for sticking but leigh was way too excited to try to make one that she persisted for the better part of two hours to build the bottom part of the snowman... we rolled that thing uphill up 4 blocks (carrying it over cross streets) before we got it home... oi :-P

we also made snow angels, only before leigh threw her scarf in the house in preparation for making hers, she fell flat out on her back on the porch, and ended up making one right there in front of our door instead... that was pretty great too :-P

that about sums it up... lots of snow... lots of silliness... lots of work to do tomorrow :-P

later dudes
