Quite a slippery kind of snow. I thought with just an inch or two on the ground I could run to the market quickly, but no! After skidding up the hill that is our driveway, I had to turn around within a half mile on the actual road. Very surprised, as my Subaru usually plunges through in such conditions.

Stay safe, everyone!

About six inches on the ground, snowing hard, visibility crap, wind gusts making drifts. If you don't have to leave your house, don't. On the other hand, eight days to Spring!

The flight from NYC to Miami got cancelled too. There goes her first vacation in two years thanks to Covid.
