First snow! (UPDATED)

Huge, fat flakes coming down... and if we're lucky, we'll get three inches or so of accumulation. Our schools are set for early dismissal (1 p.m.), and if this sticks and it freezes tonight, the kids might have a snow day tomorrow!

Some pictures below the fold... (UPDATE - New ones, too!)

(Update - Oh, and just a reminder for those who don't drive in snow often: it's very slippery! I went to pick up the Darling Munchkin from school [early dismissal at 11 a.m.], and went right off the road! Fortunately, the car didn't - quite - go down in the ditch, and I righted myself quite quickly. But, I was driving carefully, so even then you can have some lovely moments to reacquaint yourself with your adrenal glands!)

I'll post some more pictures later, when more snow has fallen. Everybody pray for LOTS!!!!!

UPDATE - Here are more pictures, all taken on my way to pick up the Darling Munchkin, but before I slid off the road... I came back the long way instead of the back way - gee, I wonder why? LOL

Yeh, want some of that... around two or three days before Christmas break! heh It'd give my Wonder Woman a few more days off.

(Yeh, she might have to make some up on the back end if the district didn't figure enough snow days into the year, but that's later. :-)

Hehe... Well, Lord only knows how long it'll stick. I'm comfy-cozy in the house, and it's sounding more like rian (or VERY wet sleet) at the moment >:(

We'll see - I want LTOS of the white stuff this year!
