Sunshine and Plopping Snow

The heavy, wet snow that fell on Va. yesterday is coming down in big blobs today as the sun quickly gets to melting. 7 inches here at the tirehouse was a little above predictions but snow predictions are always iffy and my prediction of less than 4 or more than 6 as opposed to the narrow 4 to 6 window was once again more accurate. Cold temps tonight will determine the school arrival time tomorrow after today's melting. I'm guessing a two hour delay for Tuesday but it's not in my hands.  Building warmth will guarantee school beyond tomorrow.
The aftershocks continue: 2.7 early Sunday morning centered off Rt. 605 just past E. Old Mountain Rd., jolted some lightly sleeping folks. But, they are less and less frequent - but still unnerving and likely to continue for some time as Earth keeps on doing what it does.
Enjoy a snowy Washington's Birthday!!!
