At least the wind has gone down, it`ll be very cold -34 over nite but shouldn`t be any real bad drifting snow.
Minus 36 for Tuesday nite, not much hope till about Friday- a low of minus 23, high minus 18, a heat wave......

The wind is still howling here, I can't see to the end of the block right now. I came home early so I didn't get storm stayed at work. I am going to have lots of snow to move tomorrow though, so I will be late for work tomorrow. I did get lots of stuff done today though which was nice.

The wind always seems to come from the northwest and leave a pile of snow right on our drive way, I guess I should have put up a snow fence, but then might have angry neighbor's!!

The only time I am in good shape after a storm is when it comes from the east. As for the wind it is still blowing right now.
