Winter 2011

This has been the year of storms. In the past four weeks, we've had storms with huge snowfall amounts:
First 16", then 22", then 18", then 9", and 10" yesterday, with another foot or more to fall by the end
of the day today.

I took some pics of what we have so far. As of 8:30 EST today, this is what's going on at my place.

All the pics are in this file. Scroll down, nothing fancy...

This is the birdbath on my balcony. It was full of water and functioning on Monday.

This is another view of the snow on my balcony.

If you stand on my balcony and look to the left, there's the parking lot.

Yes, the snow piles are above the cars. That's not my car in the snow bank - mine is in the second row waiting to be dug out.

Here's another view with the walkway.

Another view of the walkway - they still need to shovel it.

My building is in a courtyard with others. Across from me is the other walkway.

Here is a pic of the building next to me.

Here's closeup of their icicles.

If you stand on my balcony and look to the right, this is the building down the end of the walkway. There's a small pond that's covered in front of it.

Speaking of icicles, here are the ones on the side of my balcony. My entry door is right underneath them.

I took some pics last night, but the night time pics didn't come out so well. One icicle one did, though.

 

More to come. Another foot or more to come... lol
