Hello, dear readers. I hope you
have been warm and safe wherever you are. Central Virginia has had frigid
temperatures in the single digits to 0 and even below, and that’s not taking
into account the wind chill. That is very unusual for our area, and some
records were broken.
We also got snow Monday and
Tuesday, a little snow on Wednesday, then more snow and ice on Saturday. We
haven’t been out of the house more than necessary. I love winter, but even I’m
looking forward to some warm sunshine. More cold is coming, though.
Here are some pictures I managed
to get this week. Some were with my phone and some were with my camera through
a window.
And I hope I’ll have more to say
on Thursday. Sigh.

| Snow falling Monday, late afternoon. The road is already covered. |

| Snow on the lower driveway, Saturday. |

| Small pine tree branch caught in the snow. |
 |
| Cat prints in the snow, apparently from a neighborhood kitty. Please bring outside pets indoors when the temperatures drop! |

| Ice clinging to the tree branches Sunday morning. |

| The streets were very slick on Sunday morning. |
Brrrr. Time for winter to hit the road!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like we are not the only one dealing with Mother Nature's cold sense of humour:) Love your photos. Keep warm and safe. Hug B
ReplyDeleteWinter seems to keep on coming.. We had snow over the weekend, about 10 inches here in Maryland.. I am ready for spring now.. Stay warm and safe, have a happy Monday!
ReplyDeletelove the ice-covered branches pic! stay warm and safe. we have snow and sleet here in texas today.
ReplyDeleteThe pictures are beautiful but I don't blame you for being over the snow. We don't get ice storms like y'all do so I can't even imagine what that's like. Snow enough is bad. Snow and ice? Forget it! Stay warm!!
ReplyDeleteBeAuTiFuL!!!!! i love snow, i adore winter!!! have you been sledding?!?!
ReplyDeleteI am over it now!!!
ReplyDeleteStay warm! We are leaving South Florida and heading back to the Pacific Northwest. They've enjoyed springlike weather, but it looks like some cold is setting in just in time for our arrival. A few of the nights here have been colder than at home -- weird.
ReplyDeleteI find it always looks and feels better in someone else's neighborhood! The photos are fantastic! Ice looked beautiful but a little scary. Are you as ready for spring as I am?!
ReplyDeleteYou've shown us a winter wonderland. At this time of the year we start looking for spring instead of more cold.
ReplyDeleteI know what you are talking about, Tina. We got 5" of snow a week ago Monday, followed by more snow and ice. It warmed up enough this Monday to melt a lot of it only to snow some again yesterday afternoon. Guess what! We are supposed to get another 6 or so inches tonight. That's coastal Virginia. Weird weather!
ReplyDeleteTina, that is an incredible winter wonderland :) :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful snowy photos Tina! Snow is lovely to look at, but I know snowy, icy roads can be dangerous, and so much snow can be emotionally oppressive! The whole east coast has been pummeled for weeks, and is hope the weather turns for you soon.
ReplyDeleteCute kitty prints! :)
i love snowy shots. so pretty. we have been having lots of ice today. hope you are well today. take care. enjoy your March. ( :
ReplyDeletei was missing you today and started to worry!!!! i know i shouldn't, but i do!! i hope you have lost yourself in something fun ;)
ReplyDeleteThis was us last week. I'm glad it is gone for now, and hoping it's gone for real. Stay warm and have a blessed Sunday!
