Snowfall 2: Electric Boogaloo...

The snow was already falling at a pretty good clip last night when I went to bed. This morning I hauled myself out from under the covers, did some light blogging, sketched out the outline for a forthcoming column, and then suited up to head outside.

First things first, I shoveled the walk between the house and the garage, shoveled a path to the driver's door of Bobbi's SUV, and then swept all the snow off her car. After that was the relatively easy job of cranking her Lexus up and sitting in the driver's seat listening to the radio until the heater and defroster vents were blowing warm air and the butt toaster in the driver's chair was warm.

Back out into the cold, it was time to shovel the walks around the front of the house, as well as those of the neighbor one house to the north. That got finished up around 10:30AM...
I knew this was just staving off the inevitable, because the next wave of snow was scheduled to hit at 2PM and continue through the night, adding another 4-6" atop the roughly 5" we got last night.

Sure enough, 4PM looked like this...

So it looks like tomorrow morning will be a repeat performance of this morning...
