The streets are now all white. The temperature hasn't fallen much below 30 yet, so the edges toward the gutters are a bit damp. But there's plenty in the middle of the roads. I think it's mostly sleet, which is good; sleet gives grit and traction that freezing rain doesn't.




The blurriness is partly low light, but it's also the sleet in the air.



My footprints crossing the street. Very low light, but the depth of the sleet is visible. The other marks are the treads of one vehicle.


My house! The lights are from a little tree in the front room.


My Christmas tree is up and mostly decorated! And I'm getting chilly. So it's time for a nice hot bath and shower. Signing off with a blurry, low-light selfie!

WOW. That makes the little bit of sleet we got here a few years ago look like a mere handful. :o

And it's still coming! We ought to be done sometime in the morning with this round, but there's a possibility for more on Saturday.

Ooh, as of the time I'm looking at it, that is impressive. It looks as if the whole length of the storm band just wants to wind its way across your area. I hope it doesn't cause anyone too much trouble.
