It’s been quite a few days of weather here. We had a very windy day on Friday. All day we had winds at 20 mph gusting upwards of 50 and the temperature around 40F (4C). Saturday came and it was nice out for mid-March around here. Temperature was mid 40’s and sunny. However, Sunday rained all day again in the 40’s till later in the night when it started to drop and a little sleet till about 11pm when it turned to snow. Monday morning, I woke at about 6am to find it was still snowing and blowing and everything was covered in snow. Here it is 8am and snowing like crazy right now. I checked the local forecast, and they are calling for this to continue till 3pm. They also say as of 5:30 am we have gotten 7.2 inches (18cm) of snow. If this keeps up till 3pm who knows how much this is going to add up to. I have an interview scheduled today and they called about an hour ago to see if we could reschedule because they are closed for the day. I didn’t mind at all, that dive would have taken forever. If you are in this same sort of weather be careful if you must go out. Maybe this is the kind of day to just stay home. Photo: yeah, bad quality and does not do the weather justice but thought I would give you an idea of what it looks like out here.

It sounds like it's time to get your sled out and see if you can beat the kids in having fun for the day. We had high winds and storms from Saturday until yesterday afternoon when it started snowing here. We only got half an inch. (I can hear the older neighbor doing something outside. It sounds like he's shoveling snow. *shrug*)

I’m glad they had enough sense not to make you come to the interview in this weather.
