Air temperature 28 F, north wind gusting over 20 mph, overcast. Roads plowed, city sidewalk plow has been through even on the side street. I have a date with the snowblower after coffee. We only seem to have gotten about 3" of snow but the back and shoulders suggest hiring some mechanical horses . . .

Snowblower run completed. Only nuisance was the snowplow berm. Sun can remove the residue.
