The wind's supposed to pick up too, to create blizzard conditions this afternoon.

Canadian inventor, Arthur Sicard invented the snow blower in 1925. I tip my hat to you Mr. Sicard.

I didn't know that. He is a cousin!

I hope you don't loose power too. Here, we usually don't loose power from storms as the wires are below ground. We've had frequent power losses over the last 10 years from old infrastructure.

The snow is heavy now here, coming down at about 2" per hour. Since I removed the slush, we've got about 6 more inches so far.

It's very beautiful here,
but I've cancelled my hotel for tomorrow night in DC.
We'll have to do it another weekend.
