Snowfall totaled 10-11.5 inches (depending on what part of town and who did the reading), but today is clear, sunny and cold (2 degrees at 8:00 am - 6 degrees at Noon and 8 degrees at 3:00 pm). The snow is very light and crisp, so the wind caused drifts in parts of the garden. The neighborhood kids are enjoying a 'snow day' break from school and many businesses opened late, to allow workers time to 'dig out' before going to work.
