We got near the maximum amount of snow predicted for the storm overnight, and it was beautiful. A proverbial blanket of white covered the ground, and all the trees were flocked with heavy dollops of snow. School was out, but it was quiet around here, and the snow remained undisturbed for most of the day, even as the temperatures warmed above freezing and the roads were cleared.
Then, just as was also predicted, as night fell, so did the rain. What a difference a few degrees makes! A little colder, and we might have had one of those back-to-back blizzards that February is famous for around here. As it is, the rain is supposed to continue through the night, washing away all the snow, and schools are even opening on time.
