It's snowing in Vermont

Posted Friday, December 12, 2008

The world is looking pretty white today. Ain't it grand?

Jay Peak ski resort is reporting 24 inches of snow in the last two days. Exaggeration? Not sure. I plan on hitting the snow tomorrow, when it will be downright chilly!

Down at Okemo, they reported that they lost power during the “Great Sleet Storm of 2008.” I hear it's a real mess in parts of New Hampshire. Lots of people without power because of ice.

Here's a timely snow video from a Vermonter who was on Church Street in Burlington today. Yes, there is snow up here in northern Vermont!
