We had our first snowstorm two weeks ago here in New York, I think today's was the fourth and the first one was bad enough that the roads still haven't recovered and the snowbanks made it tough to see around corners. And this is only the beginning...

The snow was coming down, the trees were blanketed in snow and a Cardinal landed in a nearby tree, a flash of red in all the white. I could see Lake Winni and the mountains in the distance. What a perfect Christmas morning.

Over my last winter there (92-93) we had about 10 feet total of snow in the city.
Seems we had a blizzard every weekend.

I walked to work and home.

MARCH 12-14, 1993

“Dubbed the “Storm of the Century,” this intense storm produced tremendous amounts of snow from Tennessee to the Canadian border, with many locations breaking snowfall records.
Over 40 inches was recorded in upstate New York and 70 mph winds blew snow drifts up to 20 feet high.
The storm was so treacherous nearly 300 deaths were attributed to it.”
