Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!

We checked the forecast on Sunday so we'd know whether or not we should plan to move some furniture around to various apartments on Monday. It showed 0% chance of rain, so we set everything up. And then we woke up to our first real snow! We thought we'd wait to take pictures until later in the day after it had accumulated. Then we started getting reports of the weather in Salt Lake. Way to take the wind out of our sails! Salt Lake hogged all the snow. So no pictures today, We can't compete, especially since by afternoon the snow had mostly melted. This morning we feared there would be black ice, but the overnight rain melted all of that. We'll let you glory in your beautiful white fluff while we try not to blow away--we've had some pretty fierce winds to move our rain around today, but no more snow. If our rain had been snow instead, we would have given Salt Lake a run for their money.

This morning there was an email from Church saying the offices in Salt Lake would close at 3:00 yesterday because of the weather. You don't hear of that too often.

This year we're supposed to have a very mild winter here. Let's hope they're right. That was the forecast last year too, right up until the snow started in February and forgot to stop.

Occasionally the stresses of the office get a little intense (understatement), but we'd rather be stressed and inside the warm, dry office than outside in the wild wind and heavy rain!
