What does 20+ inches of snow look like?

We survived the Blizzard of 2011! A true thundersnow. It was pretty crazy having lightening and thunder in a snow storm. All these pictures were taken out our front windows. This picture was taken just as the blizzard arrived.

And here is the after picture.








As I write, the owner of the front car has been trying to dig it out for well over the past hour. He still has a smile on his face so I guess that's good.




This is a lot of snow!








The wind was blowing so badly that it blew snow in between our storm window and regular window. The windows are original and not exactly efficient (ie, 106 years old), but still, fairly impressive.
