Driving in the snow


This is Sunday, when a new record snowfall for 1-29-12 was set at 6.3 inches, beating the previous record of 6.0 inches in 1954.  And it continues to pile up.  I heard on the radio that Juneau has had 108 inches of snow since November 1.   The average snowfall for Nov - Jan is around 60 inches.



But today, Tuesday 1/31, it began raining and stayed above freezing.  It is supposed to stay above freezing for a few days.  Everything is melting and the "snow cakes" have flown off of my truck today.  It surprises you when you stop at a light and this rush of snow floods your windshield!  I could hear it sloshing around on the top of the truck.  :)
