Snowless So Far

Friday, December 16, 2011

Amy at Backyard Bounty is enjoying our very mild and nearly snow-less December: I’m almost afraid of saying it out loud, but I LOVE having no snow on the ground…I’m thoroughly enjoying the mild conditions and lack of snow (it’s staying in the mountains, which is where we need it).

Snowy Drive

Wednesday, November 23, 2011

So far, we’ve only had one real wintry blast so far this season; left a couple of inches of snow on the ground, some ice, and temps in the single digits for a couple of days over the weekend. Here’s a quick video (with cool background music, now available on YouTube!) of how the roads were on Friday. Looks like Thanksgiving will be pretty mild this year – temps in the 40s or 50s, no snow, and lots of...

Just got back from a fun hour at the dog park with Ziggy – and noticed that wearing a flannel shirt might not have been a bad idea – getting just a wee bit chilly out there!

Snowy Surprise!

Snowy Surprise!

We’ve gone through about four or five “winter weather advisories” over the last month, and they’ve all turned out to be busts (at least here in Great Falls) – but this one really came true! Started on Thursday night around 11 pm, when the rain turned to snow – very wet, very heavy snow. By the time it stopped mid-morning on Friday, it was nearly 12 inches. Not to worry – by the afternoon, the roads were almost completely...
