Snow and Sleet

It snowed and sleeted several inches up here. I don't know if I've ever seen such deep sleet. It holds you up above the ground whereas you'd sink in snow. Some spots, I'd guess 6" deep easily. I was able to walk with the dog on top of the stuff and only occasionally break through about a half inch worth of shoe.

It took a while to dig out the car this morning. A thin layer of ice on the windows and on the front windshield about 1-3" of snow/sleet piled on. I'm happy we avoided the major ice storm, and it was interesting to see how road crews work around here.

I took some photos, so maybe later I'll post some here.
