Here in upstate New York, we are preparing for a few days of severe winter weather. First, cold temperatures and wind, followed by a significant snowstorm with over a foot (1/3 meter) of snow expected.
The three of us have our supplies on board and expect to be in most of the weekend. I might make it to church for vigil on Saturday or might have to do online services. I expect my Sunday afternoon rehearsal will be cancelled.
Of course, the storm could change course, but better safe than sorry.

Yeah, we’re hunkered down here, too. They’re saying “around 7 inches of snow” here Sunday into Monday, but I think it’ll start earlier and be a higher total. You can already smell it.

Glad you are ready and will be safe. It looks like we will be in the heaviest snow area, 12-18″, but, fortunately, no icing.

Stay warm, go walkin’ in your winter underwear, and eat your favorite snacks. Nothing to do but make the best of it, yah?

I actually enjoy the winter, even though I can’t get out in the snow as I used to these days. We’ve been enjoying watching the birds come to the feeders, especially the juncos which are also called snowbirds.
