The area in which we live is notorius for the weather forecasters calling for big dumps of snow, only to have either nothing at all, or a dusting. In their defense, we are in this tricky area, where literately depending on the wind, we are on the snow/rain line. Last night, when we went to bed and there was just barely a dusting we laughed to ourselves, thinking they really must think we're getting a lot of snow tonight (forcasts had been for anywhere from 4-8 or 6-12 inches).
We woke up to roughly 10 inches of snow.
Mr. Wisconsin (AKA Dennis) commented that the snow started out wet, then turned to powder, making it perfect for snow ball fights. It also happens to be beautiful stuff, weighing down all the branches, and snapping several. I've posted a picture of a beautiful winter blooming Camila tree we have. It normally reaches up to the 2nd story of our house, as seen in the non snow picture, where you can see the gutter. This morning, in the snow picture, notice where the top of the tree is--all the way down by the fence, bent in half!
