First official snowfall

They originally predicted up to 4" of snow, but the storm has now been downgraded to 1" to 2".... and so far it's been snowing since 1pm and it isn't sticking to the ground (except the grass and the cars). But that hasn't stopped the people around here from panicking! No sir! Everyone had to run to the grocery store yesterday and buy up all the milk and bread, and then off to the home stores to buy shovels and salt. It's crazy! You'd think we were going to have the blizzard of the century.

I myself am camped out at mom & dad's... had to turn on the heat for the first time this year. I love the smell of the radiators heating up. At least the house will be warm enough for me to sleep in!

If the snow actually starts sticking, the Federal Government will likely shut down. (They're very nervous about all of their employees getting to work safely. Probably because nobody in this town knows how to drive in the snow, but they all have SUVs so they think that makes it ok.) And if the government shuts down, we do too!! Yay!
