how was YOUR weekend? mine was thunderblizzardy.
We got that blizzard, the one that gave the mid-Atlantic seaboard a white Christmas. There’s a lot of snow, yeah; every time I looked out the window (which was constantly) the air was filled with tiny flashes — little dots, really — of snow blowing sideways, gusting around in whorls. Not the big heavy flakes, just little diamond dust. It did accumulate, that’s for sure, and I’m glad I work at home. But really, the coolest part was the booming thunder and flashes of lightning in the midst of it, last night. Oh that was neat. Thunder in a snowstorm, satisfies my heart. Living on the plains of Texas, thunderstorms are such a regular part of life and I miss them. Here are a few shots of what we got:
cool - today, anyway. much less cool tomorrow, i'm sure.
cars buried in the drifts
still, so pretty!
it even started filling the subways!
One thing I love about my city is that they organize snow days in the parks — sledding and free hot chocolate. I just love that. So stay warm, y’all! Hope your Christmases and Boxing Days were great.
it’s RAINING SIDEWAYS
So I’m just sitting on the couch, working, and all of a sudden I smell it – I smell the rain. And it’s blowing SIDEWAYS, at great force. And it’s thundering. Perhaps even lightning? So of course what does anyone think at that moment:
You’re welcome. I’m always doing this for you.
p.s. edit: the intense storm lasted for 2.5 minutes. it was an hour’s worth of storm squeezed into 2.5 minutes, i kid you not!
