It's snowing!

And wouldn't you know it, I left my camera in my truck and if I go outside now I'll wake Sparky up and she'll be pissed. So you'll have to settle for this picture I got off Google.
I'm taking some snow photos in the morning though, if it doesn't all melt off that is. Snow all night you crazy snow!

Stormy Sunday-UPDATED!

The rain stopped shortly after I originally wrote this post. Snow has been falling since about 11:30 this morning but because the ground is so warm it has not been sticking much. I took this photo outside of Monkey Central around 1 PM EST:
It's quite cold and I expect most all school systems will be closed or opening late tomorrow due to icy roads.


Remember the other day when I said it was sunny and 70 here in east Tennessee?

Well, that was last Tuesday. Today, Sunday 12-16-07, it's cold, rainy/snowy, and the wind is gusting at about 30 MPH. As you can tell from the picture above it's also foggy, so foggy in fact that you can hardly see the mountains.

Personally, I'd like to see the temps drop to about 30 degrees and see it snow about 3 feet. I doubt that that is going to happen but it did actually snow about a foot and a half here in about 15 hours a few years ago. The whole region was paralyzed for days because it had been many years since we had seen that much snow at once.

I hope the weather isn't too bad where ever you are.
