You've got as much snow on the ground as I do up in Canada. Welcome to the great white north.Well, we woke up to 5" of snow this morning - some pics below when I got our morning paper (which was delivered!) - our annual average is about a half foot, so hopefully we've seen the end? Will not melt as fast as usual because temps are 10+ F degrees below average until Tuesday - we were planning to go to an afternoon concert tomorrow of the local Symphony - suspect will be cancelled or postponed. Dave
P.S. I did tarp our cars yesterday afternoon expecting this result from the weather predictions!

You've got as much snow on the ground as I do up in Canada. Welcome to the great white north.
.Winston Salem has had an average annual snowfall of 7.5 inches over the last 30 years, which is 14.9 inches less than the national average (22.4 inches). 88% of Winston Salem's snow fell during the winter months. The record snowfall was 20.0 inches on March 02, 1927 - about average for snowfall records.
I hear your storm is part of a massive system that's moving up the Eastern seaboard into Atlantic Canada.Well, I spent the first 25 years of my life in Michigan and moved south to escape these 'winter joys' - quoted below is the 'snowfall history' for Winston-Salem - typically, we get 2-3" a couple of times in the winter, which melts by the next day - but this is more than expected and will be around for a few more days than usual - sun is now out and the snow is sliding out the tarps on the cars - good sign!
In the spring, my preferred views of the house and yard should greet us, as shown below (April last year) -Dave
