Pouring rain here, landing on layers of snow that have blanketed one inch of ice we experienced Dec. 21st. Extremely dangerous driving today. Schools closed, and power outages. Though 47F now, not much melting. Temps will drop below freezing again tonight and going forward, so driveway will be like a skating rink. Landscape for the past two weeks has been breathtakingly beautiful. Tree branches have had a thick coating of ice, freshened by regular snow falls. On sunny days with blue skies, everything has sparkled like crystal, with numerous flashes of twinkling diamonds. Heavenly.
