Snowstorm on the last day of official winter

March 20th is the first day of spring and we're in the midst of a snowstorm today, the 19th. While some folks are lamenting more shoveling, we skiers and riders are psyched!

This morning Vermont ski resorts were reporting 2 to 9 inches of snow had fallen already. Today the snow continues. The National Weather Service is forecasting a foot or more of snow to fall in many Vermont mountain areas by Wednesday morning. I love seeing double digits on their snowfall map: <link http: www.erh.noaa.gov btv html stormtotalsnow stormtotalsnow.shtml>www.erh.noaa.gov/btv/html/StormTotalSnow/StormTotalSnow.shtml

Here's a snowy shot from Bromley Mountain this morning.
