"Snow" in NC, Ha!

So it "snowed" in North Carolina this weekend. Well it also snowed in Helsinki, only it really snowed here. We had about a foot of snow fall from Friday night to Saturday night. It has been snowing since Thursday and has stopped temporarily today. It should start snowing again sometime either this afternoon or tonight and last most of the week. We have had a warm front come through in the last couple of days. The high for today was around 28 Fahrenheit.

Seriously, I hope that everyone has enjoyed the NC snow and that you were all safe. Stay warm and enjoy the wintry weather.

In the pictures you are looking at piles of snow that have been pushed up from scraping the sidewalks and piles of snow that has accumulated on bushes and the sidewalk. Those were not piled up from scraping, they are actual accumulations!
