Winter Storm Jan 2010

 

I took this picture about 1 pm on 1-28-10.  The temp had dropped to around 30 degrees and icicles were forming on the bird feeder.........

At 1 pm on 1-28-10 my jeep was starting to become covered in ice - ignore the date on my camera......it needs reset apparently.  

 

By 3 pm on 1-28-10 the icicles were getting thicker & longer..........sounds a little dirty, huh?

Took a shot of our walkway at 3pm on 1-28-10 to show how the sleet was starting to accumulate........now the fun is beginning...........whoo hoooooooo

And by 3 pm on 1-28-10 my jeep is beginning to resemble an ice cube!

  

6 pm on 1-28-10 shows my ice covered yard & thick icicles........already slick and hazardous out

6 pm on 1-28-10 & my jeep is encased in ice........fun times

6 pm on 1-28-10 on the back patio - that's about an inch of ice shown

By 7:30 am on 1-29-10 the sleet had covered the yard

7:30 am on 1-29-10 showed how the icicle had lengthened overnight.......good thing i was staying home!

7:30 am on 1-29-10 reflects how the ice accumulated over night on the back patio - the dogs hated going out to pee - their tootsies were cold

 

11:30 am on 1-29-10 - snow started falling around 8:30 or 9 am...........by this time it had accumulated quite a bit on top of all that ice..........hibernation was my middle name by that point!

11:30 on 1-29-10 looking across the street shows the snow shower much better...........say that 5x really fast..........

3:30 pm on 1-29-2010 - the snow has really piled up and it just kept falling

3:30 on 1-29-10 shows the patio covered..........pretty to look at from inside snug as a bug in a rug

WOW!  3:30pm on 1-29-10........good thing i didn't need to go anywhere.......where the hell's the road???

By 6:30 om on 1-29-10 the snow had let up but it was a cold nipply night 

6:30 pm on 1-29-10........where's the yard???

8am on 1-30-10 - why i can never sleep when i'm off is beyond me...........but check out how long that icicle has gotten!

8 am on 1-30-10 - just took this of the icicles hanging off the house because I thought they looked really cool.

8 am on 1-30-10..........sheesh louise!  better not stand under those things.........they'd send you to the ER

 

8 am on 1-30-10 - holy COW!!!

8 am on 1-30-10..........the neighbors haven't moved either..........they're hibernating as well looks like.

8 am on 1-30-10.........wonder how long it'll take to unbury my ride...........
