Snow Day!

It appears to have stopped snowing for the moment. We have a Winter Storm Watch in effect until midnight tonight. The local news is reporting this the largest accumulation of snow EVER rcorded in Albuquerque. I'd not bet against it: there's got to be close to a foot at my house, down at 5300 feet, in the Valley. In the lower foto, you will notice a tree-limb which fell out of the Chinese elm, borne down by the weight of the very wet snow; it is one of several down around here this morning... FYI: The snow-covered blob in the right foreground of the same foto is Boadicea...
